Hi David,

Would it be possible to put up the jar that contains or the java file: org.smallmind.nutsnbolts.util.DotNotationComparator? I get a compile error with this and I don't understand what it does in terms of dot notation.

Thanks,
James.

I've had a number of requests, so I'll upload this bit of code here so people 
can have a look. I know there's room for improvement in the code that exists, 
and a ton that needs to be done. There's a wicket-dojo project on GitHub 
https://github.com/vijaykiran/wicketstuff-dojo that's much cleaner, with many 
more advanced integrations. However, that project lacked implemented wrappers 
for Dojo Dijits, which is what I wanted most. The code there also seemed a bit 
daunting, so I began a project to make wrappers I could understand, and extend, 
and learn both Wicket and Dojo in the process. This is the results so far. The 
few advantages it has over the GitHub code I've linked to are...

1) A bunch of useful Dijits wrapped in a way I hope is fairly clear and 
extensible (it's getting better).
2) All the wrappers use fluent APIs
3) You can generally set a field, or your own model, interchangeably. For instance, 
if you want to set a Title, you can usually setTitle(String title) or 
setTitleModel(IModel<String>  titleModel). Being able to control the model is 
extremely useful.
4) You can generally set attributes in your HTML and these values will 
initialize the fields/models in the wrappers on a non-Ajax render. Values can 
then be dynamically altered from there via Ajax (as with user interaction).
5) Using setIntermediateChanges(true) will generally update the wrappers' 
fields/models upon user interactions with the Dijit, via Ajax (you can also add 
DojoAjaxUpdatingBehaviors to get your own callbacks). This extends to things 
like stack container updating its models for selected child index and id.

There's still much to do. It's not the cleanest code yet. It doesn't handle 
animations or fx or anything but presenting widgets. It's part of a larger 
project so I haven't presented a real build, just the code. If people are 
interested, I can cleave this off and provide a true maven build.

David
