Geertjan,
What would be incredibly cool is to CTRL-Click on wicket:id values from the HTML page, and have it jump you to the line of code in the associated Java file that uses that same "id". You might be able to do this 80% right by simply looking for the exact String in the Java page and jumping the cursor to that first line, or looking for that string on a line with the method call "add" as well.

Hi all,

Firstly, I want to apologize for not being a regular contributor to these Wicket lists (at all). Some time ago I blogged about Wicket quite a bit (http://blogs.sun.com/geertjan), but since then other work activities have taken up my time.

I work as a technical writer for NetBeans in Prague, Czech Republic.

I'm going to be at JavaOne, where I will do a presentation called "Developing an Editor for your Favorite Web Framework".

Basically, I'll show how you can strip the NetBeans IDE to its bare essentials, and then add plug-ins for the editor functionality specific to whatever web framework you want to use, and then finish off with some branding -- adding a splash screen, creating an executable, and then running the resulting executable with just the NetBeans core plus your plug-ins.

So, that's where Wicket comes in! I'm going to use Wicket as my example web framework for purposes of this presentation at JavaOne.

For this reason, I'd really appreciate your help. When you think of: "Wicket IDE", what would be some of the features that you'd like to be there? I'm thinking of:

-- project templates
-- project samples
-- a single file template that creates two source files: HTML file and Java source file -- a palette that lets you drag components into the HML file, while simultaneously generating the associated Java code in the Java source file -- being able to jump for the HTML code to the related Java code, using a shortcut key or menu item in the editor

Do the above make sense to you? Are there other things you can think of?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Geertjan
