as an alternative to this method you can create an imodel decorator that has the formatting in getobject...
IModel.getObject(Component c) {
Date d=(Datre)delegate.getObject(c);
return formattedDate(d);
}
that way you can use any existing output component and still maintain the format.
in the project i work on i have the model and the component wraps whatever it gets passed through the consturctor with that model
ie...
class DateLabel extends Label {
public DateLabel(String id, IModel model) {
super(id, new DateFormatModel(model));
}
}
but in the end, whatever works for you :)

I have a lot of ListViews that need to show ISO formatted dates. Is it common practice to make a WebComponent for that? For example like this:
public class DateLabel extends Label
{
static private final Format sDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
public DateLabel(String id)
{
super(id);
}
public DateLabel(String id, Date model)
{
super(id, new Model(model));
}
public DateLabel(String id, IModel model)
{
super(id, model);
}
protected void onComponentTagBody(final MarkupStream markupStream, final ComponentTag openTag)
{
replaceComponentTagBody(markupStream, openTag, sDateFormat.format(getModelObject()));
}
}
I must admit that I'm not really in a Wicket Mindset yet. Maybe a Wicket Jedi Master can tell me whether this is the right approach :-)
