One idea would be to create a class that represents the logical idea of
a link, e.g....
public class NavEntry {
private String title;
private Class pageClass;
private PageParameters parameters;
...
}
Pass a list of these to the constructor of your panel, which then
renders these into actual links and labels.
If this is too restrictive, e.g. if you want different kinds of links,
not just BookmarkablePageLinks, you can defer creation of the link to
the NavEntry object:
public class NavEntry {
...
public abstract WebMarkupContainer createLink(String id);
}
public class BookmarkablePageNavEntry extends NavEntry {
private Class pageClass;
private PageParameters parameters;
public WebMarkupContainer createLink(String id) {
return new BookmarkablePageLink(pageClass, parameters);
}
}
A similar technique is used in the tabs package in wicket-extensions.
