the problem is really about bootstrapping components. i think we've got it under control.
our approach will be dirt simple.

The problem is that you cannot access an image inside a package without a
resourcereference created?

Getting back to my previous suggestion of tapestry-like services

Tapestry has an asset service that given a package-name of a resouce simply
streams it to the response so you can access any image or any other file by
constructing a simple url:

http://blahblah.com/myapp/app?service=asset&asset=wicket.example.image1.jpg

This eliminates any need for static resource references and since url is
always the same the asset gets cached by the browser.

Am I totally off the field here?

Subject: Re: [Wicket-develop] feedback refactor and paging navigation

it is not a workaround.
Nobody and i really think nobody is going to add all the static resources the datepicker is needing in there application
including you
This needs to be fixed.
Well, all I know is... because people couldn't hit screenshots off my website without constructing a Page. This now works. So I'm happy. It's certainly a step in the right direction. And no, I don't use the DatePicker :)

Jon suggested using an XML configuration file. I
suggested adding
a method to components (I mistakenly said Page but I meant for all
components) that allows them to return a list of all
resources they
wish to export. etc..
Yes but you still need to know WHAT components what to contribute.
so this must be configured/registered somehow.

i don't want xml either. just a simple property file.
Ok, so I won't suggest the exact details of how to accomplish this, but let me ask: why don't we declare an interface which all components must implement which will make this possible (a la JavaBean) as opposed to using property files? I'd prefer having this sort of thing as part of the Class, something I run through a compiler and gets compile-time validation.
