Thanks for the help guys. I've got it all working correctly now. For other people's future reference. I think this is the page that Igor was referring to which I pretty much copied : https://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/uploaddownload.html I am retrieving the images from a db as a byte array
//heres a simplified version of my code. Hope this helps someone! //this is the class that serves up the images public class ImageResource extends DynamicWebResource { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; public ImageResource() { super(); } @Override protected ResourceState getResourceState() { ValueMap params = getParameters(); String id = params.getString("id"); if (id.equals("image1")) { //show image 1 return new ResourceState() { @Override public byte[] getData() { //get the image1 from server.... return image; } @Override public String getContentType() { return "image/jpeg"; } } } else (id.equals("image2")) { //show image 2 return new ResourceState() { @Override public byte[] getData() { //get the image2 from server.... return image; } @Override public String getContentType() { return "image/jpeg"; } } } } } //this is how I access the image from wicket add(new Label("profileImage", "") { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; @Override protected void onComponentTag(ComponentTag tag) { ResourceReference imageResource = new ResourceReference("imageResource"); tag.put("src", RequestUtils.toAbsolutePath(getRequestCycle().urlFor(imageResource).toString())+"?id=image1"); super.onComponentTag(tag); } }); //and this needs to be added to the wicket application init method getSharedResources().add("imageResource", new ImageResource()); -- View this message in context: http://apache-wicket.1842946.n4.nabble.com/Dynamically-loading-image-tp3064795p3068044.html Sent from the Users forum 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
