AjaxSelfUpdatingTimerBehavior and ModalWindow

Hi,

    Is there an easy way of stopping an AjaxSelfUpdatingTimerBehavior when a
ModalWindow is opened, and restarting it again when the modal is closed ??
    AbstractAjaxTimerBehavior provides a stop() method, but not a (re)start,
I would like to know if it is possible to get the desired functionality only
by overriding some methods, or if I need to do a customized rewrite of that
class.

tia,

Daniel

    There is an enhancement request in Wicket JIRA for this issue, but it is
set to 1.5 release...

  http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-1525

    In the meantime, the class I created merging
AjaxSelfUpdatingTimerBehavior and  AbstractAjaxTimerBehavior is working
fine, although I agree that when the page refreshes on a timer it seems
somewhat sluggish.

hth,

Daniel

I know this is an old post but it hits an issue I currently have. I want to
provide the user the ability to turn on/off auto refresh of data from the
database. If all possible, I would like to use the original
AjaxSelfUpdatingTimerBehavior or at least the AbstractAjaxTimerBehavior but
it has the stopped boolean as a private with no way to set it back to true
and the methods that use it use it directly instead of calling a method that
I can override -- am I missing something? 

The man reason I want to do this is for performance trade-offs. I see that
if I set the timer off by calling the stop() method, the interface is much
snappier. It looks like another potential idea may be to override the method
renderHead, but I cannot override the respond method, which uses the stopped
boolean.

Is there a better way to handle such a problem -- I am using Wicket 1.4-r2.

Re: AjaxSelfUpdatingTimerBehavior and ModalWindow

    I post my solution just in case someone else finds it useful.

    I've created a copy of AbstractAjaxTimerBehavior and added the methods
in AjaxSelfUpdatingTimerBehavior. Then I added a start method:

public final void start(final AjaxRequestTarget target) {
	stopped = false;
   	target.getHeaderResponse().renderOnLoadJavascript(
   	   	   	   	   	   	   getJsTimeoutCall(updateInterval));
}

    In the onClick() of the AjaxLink that opens the ModalWindow, I call
behavior.stop(), then in the close of the ModalWindow, I call
behavior.start(target).
    Seems to be working ok so far.

Hope this helps,

Daniel
