Controlling the order of resource files
Hello, The normal way wicket goes over resource files is based on locale and different component names, application name etc. What's the best practice for a situation in which I would like my application to find the resource file based on a skin. This means that for the same classes set (same wicket application) and same local I still need to have different texts for a certain resource key. It is like I need another selection mechanism for resource file which is not the locale but something that is specific to the logic of my application. Is there some way to implement that? Like making wicket look for resource files the same way it does but add a prefix for every resource file name Thanks, Arie
Re: Controlling the order of resource files
Arie, This is possible out-of-the-box using Session.setStyle(); Setting a style will make wicket consider resource files and property files with the style you've specified. The following is from the Component javadoc: Style - The style (skin) for a component is available through getStyle(), which is equivalent to getSession().getStyle(). Styles are intended to give a particular look to a Component or Resource that is independent of its Locale. For example, a style might be a set of resources, including images and markup files, which gives the design look of ocean to the user. If the Session's style is set to ocean and these resources are given names suffixed with _ocean, Wicket's resource management logic will prefer these resources to other resources, such as default resources, which are not as good of a match.

SV: Controlling the order of resource files
It is like I need another selection mechanism for resource file which is not the locale but something that is specific to the logic of my application. Look at styles, i.e. Session.setStyle(String) and the documentation there for resource lookup. Basically the style tag goes before the locale, e.g. MyPage_foo_nl.properties for locale nl and style foo. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
Re: Controlling the order of resource files
Many thanks guys...this is exactly what I meant. Happy this is found in the base of wicket. Anoter example of how flexible and great wicket is:) Cheers..great day to all. Arie.
