I have a Wicket application which is required to retrieve files from the local networks it's connected to. The files can be located on a Windows or Linux file system.
My strategy so far is to use JCIFS to grab the file and write it to a temporary local (to the webserver) file which is then transferred to the users browser. The first part is working well and I can extend Wicket's DownloadLink (which creates a ResourceStreamRequestTarget from a FileResourceStream and then sets the Request target) in order to achieve my goal. My problem is that I now need to migrate to an AjaxFallbackLink instead of the Link class which DownloadLink extends. If I simply migrate the DownloadLink OnClick() code to a new AjaxFallbackLink the file is streamed to the Ajax response (You can see this in the AJAX WICKET DEBUG) and nothing much happens from the users perspective. This kind of makes sense since I'm now dealing in Ajax requests and responses. I've checked the archive and found some similar looking problems which have pointed my towards things like Dynamic/shared resources or pre-pending JavaScript to the target but I've either not understood or not been able to implement these solutions. Any solutions, ideas, wiki pointers would be most welcome. Regards.
