Does anyone know if its possible to add your own variables to the built

Thanks for your help. This is exactly what I needed.

RE: Wicket help

How would I disable a converter for a textfield based on the value of a
checkbox? I have the following code and if the checkbox is not checked I
don't need the converter code to run. I just would want to clear the
textfield.
final TextField mortgageAmountSpouse = new
TextField("mortgageAmountSpouse"){
@Override
public boolean isVisible() {
return
lifeInsuranceNeedsBean.isSpouseIncluded();
}
@Override
public IConverter getConverter(Class<?> type) {
//if("on".equalsIgnoreCase(payMortgageSpouseDies.getInput())){
return new
PfsDoubleConverter(args){
};
}
};

Mike,
Yes, it would make your code a bit easier to read (and maintain) if you
sub-classed DoubleConverter.
Also another tip from the Wicket Cookbook (pg 27):
You can register converters in your wicket application. This way all
formcomponents that are converting Double (or a given type) will use
your customer converter. That will keep you from having to override
getConverter every time.
public class WicketApplication extends WebApplication {
protected IConverterLocator newConverterLocator() {
ConverterLocator locator =
(ConverterLocator)super.newConverterLocator();
locator.set(Double.class, new MikesDoubleConverter());
return locator;
}
I hope Igor doesn't mind me sharing all the great tips in his book. I
sound like a walking advertisement.

So I have a bunch of these fields and I assume your suggesting
subclassing DoubleConverter() and building in this functionality? Then
I can just add the override for getConverter() and return new
myDoubleConverter()? Thanks for the help I think Igor just sold another

The magic is calling setVariable on the ConversionException. Thanks to
Igor's new book <https://www.packtpub.com/apache-wicket-cookbook/book>
for teaching me that. ;)
So in your page's property file you'd have (you had the wrong case on
*IC*onverter in your last email):
mortgageAmountPrimary.IConverter.Double=You must enter a valid value for
${user}'s mortgage amount field to continue with this application.
Java code:
form.add(new
TextField<Double>("mortgageAmountPrimary",Double.class){
@Override
public IConverter getConverter(Class<?> type)
{
return new DoubleConverter(){
@Override
public Double convertToObject(String value, Locale
locale)
{
try{
return super.convertToObject(value, locale);
}catch(ConversionException e){
* e.setVariable("user", "Theos");*
throw e;
}
}
};
}
});
I did it all inline so you could see it. But subclassing to make it more
useable, like getting the variable's value via a passed in Model
wouldn't hurt.

RE: Wicket help

I have:
TextField mortgageAmountPrimary = new TextField("mortgageAmountPrimary",
Double.class);
If the built in double conversion fails I want this custom error
message:
"You must enter a valid value for Ted's mortgage amount field to
continue with this application."
I need to pass in "Ted" in a variable like:
mortgageAmountPrimary.Iconverter.Double=You must enter a valid value for
${username}'s mortgage amount field to continue with this application.
So I need a 'username' var to pass in. Can you extend a converter and if
so how would you instruct the textfield to use it?
Thanks

I think you might be looking for the variablesMap(IValidatable) function
in AbstractValidator. You will probably need to extend your validator
and override that function. PatternValidator overrides it to create the
"pattern" variable, if you want an example.

I think you might be looking for the variablesMap(IValidatable) function
in AbstractValidator. You will probably need to extend your validator
and override that function. PatternValidator overrides it to create the
"pattern" variable, if you want an example.
