-----------------------------------
Hi Ashish,
The patch mainly consists of a wicket component and a simple wicket example
page in the example application.
The wicket example serves to demonstrate the necessary setup.
The proof of concept is not polished but it serves to show:
1) how we add a wicket component to framework
2) how we can use wicket in an existing OFBiz application
3) how we can reuse the OFBiz's menu.xml file to generate the menus in the
wicket page.
I have added the function for the request handler to forward the request from
OFBiz control servlet to Wicket servlet.
Inorder for the forwarding to work, we need to
a) add request-map to the controller.xml and set the response type to 'forward'
b) mount the wicket page in WicketExampleApplication.java
UrlRewrite servlet and its urlrewrite.xml file serves to rewrite the url
necessary for accessing wicket's resource and ajax functions.
About the WicketCommonDecorator class:
1) It's concept is akin to OFBiz's Decorator concept, and meant to be
subclassed when creating a wicket page.
2) There are various abstract methods the developer needs to provide
information with. (I am thinking of providing a setting class instead of those
abstract methods)
3) It should look at the current theme and add the necessary themes panel
(currenty only done for Tomahawk)
Other things todo includes:
1) Implement the panels for other themes, including the footers
2) page header info is hardcoded
Bugs:
1) Screen doesn't look OK in IE8.
I am hoping that someone interested in using wicket with OFBiz to give it some
polish, as I need to focus on other things 1st.
Regards,
James
