I have a custom label component that extends label. In the constructor
it takes a form component that I want it to check if isRequired() at
render time and append * to the text of the label. What would be the
easiest way to do this? The data for the label could be passed in
through various models,
Something like this?
class MyLabel extends Label {
private String text;
public MyLabel(String id, String text, final FormComponent fc) {
super(id, new AbstractReadOnlyModel() {
Object getObject(Component component) {
return text + (fc.isRequired() ? * : );
Probably the easiest thing to do is extend WebComponent instead of
label. Label is a super simple component really. This
protected void onComponentTagBody(final MarkupStream markupStream,
final ComponentTag openTag)
{
replaceComponentTagBody(markupStream, openTag,
That's a good alternative too.

Thanks for both of your replys!
I think extending WebComponent is the way I'll do it as then I don't
care about the type of model that gets used...
Thanks again!
Cheers,
