wicket:message and property resolving

[Matthias Keller]

Hi




Example:


The page model's object has a method say  String getSomething()

Java:

WebMarkupContainer c = new WebMarkupContainer("container");
add(c);
c.add(new Label("something"));

HTML:
<div wicket:id="container">
<span wicket:id="something"/>
<wicket:message key="myKey"/>
</div>

Properties:
myKey = Here it is: ${something}



Is this a bug? Then I'll file a JIRA

Thanks

Matt

I just disovered by chance that it's possible to use property expressions in normal <wicket:message key="..."/> elements which then get resolved against the next model found in the hierarchy. Unfortunately it seems to work a bit different to other automatic resolving like in new Label("property"). I've got a page with a WebMarkupContainer containing both a normal (wicket) label and a <wicket:message> in the HTML. The Label works as expected and displays the return value of the getSomething() call. The message fails with a big exception since it tries to get the model from the WebMarkupContainer and complains, that there's no getContainer() method... Shouldn't this work the same way as with labels, by 'finding' the nex model available? The quick solution is to give the WebMarkupContainer also the default model of the page which works but is not very nice...?
