Well, right now I'm working on abstracting out the class metadata
logic into a new library I'm calling "metastopheles."  It seems that
all of these RAD libraries (as well as many others) have their own
bean metadata framework set up.  It seems like a very common itch to
scratch.

There are a lot of folks that have some really cool ideas in this
area.  We really should try to join forces to create the best-of-breed
solution for Wicket.

I follow a similar approach in [1] to generate CRUDs. End project's code is
minimal an the dirty job is done by components that use meta-data to
generate forms, grids and so on. It is very easy to achieve such things
using repeaters...

Re: Wicket RAD project

[Vineet Manohar <vi...@gmail.com>]

Code generation saves time. I have previously created a JSF/Seam code
generator where the application does full JPA, AJAX, security, email etc.
See a live demo of example app:
http://demo.clickframes.org/tracker (it is 100% generated)

I am trying to create a similar code generator for Wicket. The idea is:
Write App Spec XML -> Generate Wicket App -> Customize -> Regenerate

I would incorporate Wicketopia or other existing RAD tool into my code
generator if that makes it easier. As an example, in the JSF/Seam plugin
that I wrote I used the Hibernate HBM -> DDL schema generation feature
(hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=create).

I was playing with the Wicket hello, world example app. It took only a few
minutes to write the templates to generate such simple apps.
http://code.google.com/p/clickframes-wicket-plugin/source/browse/trunk/examples/helloworld/src/main/clickframes/autoscan/src/main/java/%24%7BpackagePath%7D/

I am now trying to other features like links, forms, etc. An approach of
possibly integrating with another RAD tool/framework is appealing.

Re: Wicket RAD project

[James Carman <jc...@carmanconsulting.com>]

Code generation?  Is that really necessary?  I'm working on a project
called Wicketopia where we dynamically create bean forms based on
runtime class metadata.  That's what Wicket Web Beans does, too.  Code
generation really isn't needed (unless you're talking about generating
the original project).

Would be Interesting to find out if this is still being maintained as I am
also trying to create another Wicket RAD app with full code generation, JPA
support, etc. http://code.google.com/p/clickframes-wicket-plugin/

Hi,
I'm the author of the project, and I'd say the answer to that is "yes and
no":

Yes:
The code has been maintained and bug fixed in SVN, and should work without
any kinks with the latest stable 1.4.x versions of Wicket.
I use the project myself on all Wicket projects that I start.

No:
Being the sole maintainer, I've been a bit sloppy with making releases and
documenting - the best approach is to get the latest version from SVN, with
the caveat that the examples-project is currently broken.

..and finally, a correction on some misconceptions in this thread:
There is no code generation with Wicket RAD - everything is just driven by
either composition, annotation metadata or a combination of them.
