How can I share text resources with multiple web applications?
I have 2 web applications, and I would like to allow them to share the same
text files. The only way I've found is to make each WebApplication class
extend a common ParentApplication class and make a
ParentApplication.properties file to contain the common text; then I package
the common ParentApplication class and properties in a separate jar project
and include that in each of the web projects. This works great in Eclipse
in an exploded environment; unfortunately, it looks like it does not work
when I include the ParentApplication artifacts inside a separate jar. I get
the following error:
Caused by: java.util.MissingResourceException: Unable to find property: '
squeeze.presented.by' for component: [class=com.max.web.page.bizopp1Page]
at org.apache.wicket.Localizer.getString(Localizer.java:269)
.....
Is there any way to make this work? Is there another approach where I can
share the text between these projects?
Thanks for any suggestions.

I get that, and thinks its a wonderful feature of Wicket...
for Maven, the html is in the same package as the java source, but
maven organized the content in a logical way.
So, I make the statement that:
Wicket takes the exact same view of resources as Maven does.

It's not forcing you to put your stuff there. It merely *also* allows
you to put it there. It's also easy to remove (perhaps we could add a
comment saying to remove it if they want).

Sure! Take a look at a generated quickstart. There's a
src/main/resources directory with a log4j.properties file in there
(which gets copied over to the target/classes directory). So, it
doesn't obliterate the "maven way" of doing things. It just augments
it.

Re: "The quickstart allows both."
Does it? I missed that feature but it would be very handy!
The only doc I see is the one at:
http://wicket.apache.org/quickstart.html
What options do i pass to get it to do that?
and yes in that case it's an established project... I think this
thread has gotten a bit emotional and mixed up with several different
discussions (which is likely my doing).

In that situation, you're probably a little too advanced to be using a
"quickstart" for your project anyway (you may have started with one,
but you seem to have "evolved"). The quickstart is intended to get
folks up and running quickly. In your situation, you would be dealing
with a well-established project if you're passing HTML templates back
and forth between designers and coders. That's not a situation where
you'd likely to be still using a quickstart. Hopefully you've got
someone on staff (which I believe you do, considering your experience)
who could guide the other folks on how your project is to be
structured (where things go and what not).
Again, I understand where you come from when you say that it's
confusing that the resources aren't in the default location. Maven
folks like things done "the maven way" (and I'm a "maven folk"). I'm
not trying to argue really. It really doesn't make one hill of beans
to me either way. I like the fact that the quickstart allows me to
put my resources beside my java code or in the src/main/resources
directory. For those that don't, they can put their resources in the
"normal" place. The quickstart allows both.

I'm using Wicket as a tool as well, there is no difference in the
semantics and Maven is not in the business of supplying Wicket with
new users, so what exactly is your point in the above paragraph?

I don't disagree that its a useful pattern, however what are "the nine
hells of Maven usage and resource location"? The whole point of src/
main/resoruces is that you always know where the resources are!
Like I said, there is no reason to get upset about it, I don't use the
archetype because I don't want it to do all the extra stuff it does,
that I then have to clean up.
In fact there have been several instances where having the resources
and java separate has been helpful to me and the folks I work with. If
an example is needed, the case were the HTML must be delivered to non
programmers and then reintegrated is a good one. Most of us don't work
alone and the fact of the matter is that you very often have different
people that have to work separately on the same project. Having the
separate folders for the parts made that situation easy to handle.
It really doesn't matter much in a modern development environment like
Eclipse... the view to the project is that they are in the same place,
because they are in the same package. Even the Wicket Bench plugin
(when it worked) didn't care if they were physically separated in the
filesystem.

Cut the crap Martijin. What kind of a silly thing is that to say?
Times and technology change... how are the users of wicket going to
decide how it should be changed to make it better unless they can talk
about it, or even argue about it?
I have the right to discuss or argue a point in the public user list,
and in the spirit that this software is developed and released, even
if you don't like it.
Now, lets be clear in what I have said:
- At no point did I ask that it be changed. If I had there would be an
issue in Jira to go with it.
- I did say that I didn't want to use it that way and thought the way
it worked was backward (and took longer to fix than it was worth).
- I said I though the default should be the other way, and that the
archetype could do with the option to do the maven standard thing or
the wicket thing.
- I also said that my statements where my opinion.
- and i said that I did not think that having the html and source in
the same physical place was necessarily wrong and that it is a useful
pattern that i use myself.

Re: How can I share text resources with multiple web applications?
Posted by Brill Pappin <br...@pappin.ca>.
Now there is a sensible argument!
I've been thinking of doing that exact thing for clarity as the
project gets big, where the integral HTML files that have a 1:1
relationship to the code stay in the src/main/java and the other
resources that are *not* required for operation (like the property
files) to be in the src/main/resources directory.
I'm thinking that it is a bit more true to the component per package
type of pattern rather than the function per package that is common in
Java.
However I have found it useful sometimes to have the html in a
separate place, such as in passing it around outside the scope of the
code to non-programmers.
I won't lose any sleep over it though, its six of one and half a dozen
of the other.

+1. Wicket IMHO does it the right way for its particular situation.
Wicket differs from most Java project by the sheer number of resources
and by their 1:1 correspondence with Java classes. Maven, I think, is
optimized more for the more common case where a project has only a
handful of resources that are not tightly bound to particular classes.

I don't want that. If someone is anal about what maven is expecting,
then it is their problem. I am in the business of making the best
wicket development experience, from a Wicket perspective. We're using
maven as a tool, we're not in the business of supplying maven with new
users.
Putting all resources that belong to a component in the same physical
folder as the component .java file is a best practice for Wicket
users, even newbies. Doing it in any other way is opening the door to
the nine hells of Maven usage and resource location.
I really don't want the archetype to do anything else than it
currently does, nor document such a way. The Official Wicket Way (tm)
is to put all source files relating to a single unit of work in one
package, in the same physical folder. If you decide to do it
otherwise, it is not The Official Wicket Way. Feel free to disagree,

I love the use of the package structure to keep the file together,
However I don't think we're talking about moving the HTML to a
different structure, they are all still in the same package (although
I've come across cases where I *do* need it outside the package
structure for political and/or functional reasons).
What we're talking about is putting the resource where a Maven user
*expects* them.
As I said several posts ago, I don't think its "wrong" that they be in
src/main/java even if they are not java, but it's not standard Maven
and I don't want them there for that reason and other "sane" reasons
that have already been mentioned (and likely a few not mentioned).
The archetype is a Maven archetype for generating a Wicket project
stub in a Maven build environment.
It's default operation should be to put resources where a Maven user
expects them to be.
It should not be adding a bunch of crap to my build just so it can
place its resources in src/main/java instead of src/main/resources...
at least not without me telling it that I want to use a non-standard
project structure.
Heck, I'd be happy if the option was at least there even if it was not
the default option!

Correct for the *runtime* view of files, and a Maven build will combine
the packages in src/main/java and src/main/resources so that the two are
merged.
What Maven likes, however is that at *coding* and *building* time that
the Java source files, and their related resources, are in different
root folders. The main reasons I have seen for this is resource
filtering and support for multiple resource folders (sharing resources
between projects for instance).

Yes, but that's salesman talk. :) And is not at all affected by Maven's
preferences.

It retains the package structure, but the packages start out in two (or
more) different root folders when coding, being merged in the build
process.

There is no sane reason why anyone would put the html, js, css and
properties resources in any place except *next* to the
corresponding.java file. Your .java file can not function without the
.html file. Your component will fail if the .properties file is not
available. When the js file can't be found your component is useless.
Wicket goes beyond the call of duty to provide developers with the
means to encapsulate your components, bringing Object Oriented design
and programming to the web tier. Moving the necessary resources
outside the package folder into a separate directory structure breaks
this encapsulation is definitely not the Wicket Way (tm).
The Wicket archetype is to make building Wicket applications easier,
not to make the life of maven easier.

But thats not a fix, thats adding crap to my build I don't want or need.
Maven allows you to do things like that, because frankly no one would
use it if it didn't... have you ever tried to port a legacy app to
Maven?
There is no "assumption" here. See:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html
Anyway, I didn't mean to start a war here... the poor guy asked a
simple question which I responded to with a standard answer for how
Maven works.
(hmm... did the archetype confuse some new Wicket user again?)

It also *fixes* it by using a resource declaration. If the maven
community didn't want to allow folks to change where their resources
were located, they wouldn't have put that feature into the POM. If
the "other plugins" are *assuming* rather than referring to the

What other contexts would you want to use this *wicket* archetype that
does not involve Maven? If none, why should it not create a project
structure that Maven likes? Yes, you can override *anything* in Maven if
you want to, but *do* you really want to?

chuckle,
semantics :)
However as a long time maven user, I expect it to do one thing and it
does another.
I prefer my content separate and so I don't use the archetype because
it takes too long to fix the module and remove all the un-needed
additions than it does to just create the module by hand.
As I said before, maybe it should be optional.

Why should the *wicket* archetype be doing the *maven* standard thing? This
is the wicket standard way of doing things, which means that for the wicket
archetype, it is the correct way.

I didn't like it at first, being a maven user, but it does make

I understand why you do it, and don't even think its such a bad thing
(it's a very agile like approach), however I prefer them separate as a
means to keep any individual package clean and orderly as the two
parts really do serve different purposes and except initially, are
maintained at different times in different ways.
By all means, keep them in the same physical location but Maven users
will look for resources in the resources directory and maybe curse you
just a little bit when they don't find them there :) Not a big deal...
On the subject of the archetype though, it *should* be doing the maven
standard thing by default... maybe offering you a choice but the
default should be into the resources directory.
IMO of course.

Re: How can I share text resources with multiple web applications?
Posted by Jonathan Locke <jo...@gmail.com>.
I'm definitely stretching this a little, but I also believe it to be true...
Resource files are, in my mind, "encapsulated" by the package that they
belong to. You should be able to *look* at a package and see a component
with all its related resources. You should be able to right click on a
component's folder and copy that folder and know that you have the whole
package. I feel it's not intuitive for resources to be anywhere other than
in the package they belong to.
Anyway, putting them in a separate directory hierarchy (even if they wind up
in the same Java packaging structure when you build the JAR) breaks this
idea of encapsulation. In general, things should always be as private/local
as possible. With resources, this is best accomplished by keeping them in
the same folder.
It seems that everyone who encounters Wicket for the first time goes through
a period when they think this is wrongheaded... until they almost invariably
change their minds about it. It definitely requires a small mind shift.

Hi Jonathan,
Curious for your thoughts - how does separating html files into the
resources directory break encapsulation?

Re: How can I share text resources with multiple web applications?
Posted by Jonathan Locke <jo...@gmail.com>.
yes, but wicket takes a different view than maven on resources in general.
they are always closest to the component they belong to. it's a form of
encapsulation. so maybe it's wrong from maven's point of view, but putting
them in src/main/resources would be wrong from wicket's point of view. the
archetype should remain unchanged.

Yes I know, and I have to undo all its extra crap and move the files
to the right place every time...
Its annoying enough that I don't really use it any more because it
takes twice as long to get things back to were they should be than it
does to just create the darn module.

It also adds a resources specification to fix it.

With Maven, non compiled files should be in src/main/resources
The quickstart archetype actually does the *wrong* thing and puts them
in with the java files.

Thanks for the suggestion.
For posterity's sake: my problem was actually with the Maven 2 build, where
it ignored the properties file (located in with the Java files) when it
built the jar project.
