Hi,
after i played 3
days with wicket, its time to come to a small conlcsion. To have it short,
ill just write the pro and cons in my opinion. Later on i describe a problem i
have with the mount i applied to the navomatic demo
application.
Wicket
Pro:
+ good idea and
model
+ intuitive and easy
to understand
+ few code needed
+
OO
Cons:
-
documentation isn worth the word...
(wiki tells you
things that dont work, are deprecated etc - has anyone a clue what is the
non-deprecated alternative to getSettings() ??? )
- wicket Markup output is on by default (pls care for VALID
html....)
- wicket-webage
looks nice, but try to find sth. specific on it is horrific (e.g. Wicket Library
under Related Projets instead under Documentation... as a newbie i want docs and
didnt think a minute for any additional projects)
- mount seems broken
completely if you use more than 1 package
Mount problem
description:
i programmed the
navomatic border example found on http://wicket.sourceforge.net/ExampleNavomatic.html and
enhanced it with a fourth page (page4) wich lies in a subpackage (my default is
de.navo, where navomatic, page1/page2/page3 are and the package de.navo.test
helds the page4).
I then created the
init this way (i saw this recommended on javalobby and it makes sense to me, as
i like putting things in a hirarchical way and ordered by their use
-
public void
init() {
getSettings().setStripWicketTags(true);
mount("/main", PackageName.forClass(navomatic.class));
}
mount("/main", PackageName.forClass(navomatic.class));
}
First i was happy,
as it works as intended, but then i checked the pages - while the first 3 pages
in main package are ok, the 4th in the subpackage has big problems - its link is
http://localhost:8080/Navo2?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:de.navo.test.Page4 instead
of the http://localhost:8080/Navo2/main/test/Page4
and if youre on page4, all links, includig to the page4 itself, are completly
untouched (the code wicket should replace isnt replaced) - so i thought to set
each page individually,
try 2 was
this:
public void init()
{getSettings().setStripWicketTags(true);
mountBookmarkablePage("/Page1", Page1.class);
mountBookmarkablePage("/Page2", Page2.class);
mountBookmarkablePage("/Page3", Page3.class);
mountBookmarkablePage("/Page4", Page4.class);
}
there the first 3 pages work as intended, however on page4 all the links become untouched again and present the dummy text....
Best Regards,
Korbinian
