Why is it a problem that the examples project depends on the contrib project?

It is a showcase afterall. It also depends on a ton of other libraries, so I don't see any problem in it depending on the contrib project.

If your opinion is that the dependency should move to the extensions project, the extensions project should be extended with the contrib components used in the examples project. (does that sentence make any sense?)

Hmm, the last kit of wicket-examples was easy enough to get going, but
when I tried with the CVS-HEAD, then it was a real pain in that it
also required wicket-contrib support.


agree. i looked at tearing all the examples apart and putting the contrib examples in some place
like wicket/contrib/src/java/wicket/contrib/examples, but it was such a hassle that i gave up.
i'd love it if someone would tear out every example in wicket-examples that depends on the
wicket-contrib project and put them all in that folder i just mentioned.


It might have been confused by my trying to use the Ant build script
there, rather than maven.

(As an aside. what is the state of Ant within Wicket?  There are Ant
build.xml scripts but they seem to be written to use lib/*.jar but
nothing about what's needed/how to populate it - how feasible would it
be to have (a) a maven task to populate it and (b) ant detect the
empty lib/ and print a message to say "run 'maven populate-lib'".

 That would mean the dependancies are still in 1 place (Maven) but
would keep the option of Ant support?

besides moving things around a little, today i updated the web site a
bit.  in the "quick tour" area, i've trimmed down the examples and
beefed up the explanations.

one thing that's missing is the "examples" page which needs to show
step-by-step how to download and run the examples, with or without
eclipse.  it would be a huge help if someone could write the page.  my
fingers are killing me!  ;-)
