Well I was adding this behaviour in the constructor of the Panel, i.e. this.add(new AjaxSelfUpdatingBehaviour(...));
which I assumed resulted in the same effect. I have just changed it to the following (see below) and now get a null pointer when the behaviour tries to update the panel after I switch to another one, i.e. when the panel is no longer visible. Note, I am storing the panels in a List (tabsList) to prevent them being recreated every time a user switches tabs. I did this to preserve the state. Perhaps this is causing some problems. So to recap, this now throws a null pointer (at org.apache.wicket.request.target.component.listener.BehaviorRequestTarget.processEvents(BehaviorRequestTarget.java:96) presumably because the panel isn't in the markup to update. tabs.add(new AbstractTab(new Model("Administration")) { public Panel getPanel(String panelId) { if (tabsList.containsKey("Administration")) { return tabsList.get("Administration"); } else { AdminPanel adminPanel = new AdminPanel(panelId); adminPanel.setOutputMarkupPlaceholderTag(true); adminPanel.add(new AjaxSelfUpdatingTimerBehavior(Duration.seconds(5))); tabsList.put("Administration", adminPanel); return adminPanel; } } }); igor.vaynberg wrote: > > cant you add the behavior directly to the panel? > > -igor > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Is-it-possible-to-restart-an-AjaxSelfUpdatingBehaviour-after-it-has-been-stopped--tp24626909p24627960.html Sent from the Wicket - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
