This looks more like a design question but I think there must be a better, Wicket way.
I wrote a PopupPanel that allows you to have a "div" popup in a page by clicking a link. The contents of the div can be static/loaded via Ajax. The popup part with Ajax is working. The link that activates the popup can either have an image or text label. So I have... PopupPanel | abstract getTitle() and getContent() | constructor calls getTitle() and getContents() | -------------------------------------- | | LabelLinkedPopupPanel ImageLinkedPopupPanel implements getTitle() implements getTitle() To use it, new LabelLinkedPopupPanel(...) and override the getContent() method. I can't get the title to work because of "abstract method from the constructor" problem. My options then are 1. Have a setTitle() and setContent() method that is called by the subclasses but failing to call them won't be caught till runtime. 2. Have PopupPanel constructor take in components for title and content. The sub classes then just act as wrappers. 3. Replace the subclasses with PopupPanelFactory with 2 methods newLabelLinkedPopup() and newImageLinkedPopup. I don't think a border suits this requirement but I'm not sure. Is there a better way?
