well it would be nice to make embedding GWT /applications/ easy too, but
actually i was sortof remembering my old sprockets idea, i guess. i really
don't know GWT well enough (there are not enough hours in the day it
seems...), so i don't know if this is a bad idea technically (if, for
example, GWT were slow or heavyweight to start up), but i was hoping that
one could create wicket wrappers for GWT "applets" that do fancy editing of
wicket models. then wicket users could just drop in the GWT components and
get lots of fancy client-side editing of their richer wicket models (rich
text, images, stock lists, charts, spline editors, whatever).
a GWT wicket component would be a subclass of something like GwtPanel. it
would get a POJO model from wicket on loading through a GWT callback to some
GwtPanel glue code. then, when the component was done editing it, the GWT
side would have an interface to send the model back to wicket, which would
update the wicket-side component model and call something like
onModelChanged (only with an ajax request target so the wicket component
could refresh other parts of the page). so, for example, using a
super-fancy GWT rich text editor might look like:
class SuperFancyGwtRichHtmlEditor extends GwtPanel { ... }
add(new SuperFancyGwtRichHtmlEditor("htmlEditor", new PropertyModel(product,
"htmlDescription"))
{
public void onModelChanged(final AjaxRequestTarget target) {
// update the product list with fancy rich text
target.addComponent(products);
}
});
this worked pretty well for sprockets and the code should still be up there
on wicket-stuff somewhere, but nobody used sprockets much (i guess because
they're applets). if this turns out to be a good idea, i suggest "grockets"
as a name to honor sprockets and mike myers. hey, all i want here is sharks
with frickin' lasers attached to their heads, okay?
best,
jon
