> Key: WICKET-1784
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-1784
> Project: Wicket
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: wicket
> Affects Versions: 1.3.3, 1.4-M3
> Environment: Wicket 1.3.3 and 1.4-M3
> Reporter: R. Goodwin
> Assignee: Igor Vaynberg

> In some environments searches are performed in 'single call' fashion, using a transfer object.
> E.g. two queries performed by the data services tier before returning combined results to the UI tier:
> i. Query for paged search results
> ii. Query for a 'count' value representing total possible results
> The contract between DataView and IDataProvider does not support a 'single call' environment as the give/take relationship between these classes is biased towards DataView.
> DataView expects IDataProvider to provide it's size before providing IDataProvider with its offset and count.
> * DataView may have good reasons for needing size before it can provide offset/count.
> * But IDataProvider has equally good reasons for needing offset/count before it can provide size.
> The circular dependency:
> 1. DataView calls IDataProvider.size()
> 2. IDataProvider cannot return size as it cannot start a query until it receives offset/count from DataView
> 3. These it does not receive until DataView calls IDataProvider.iterator() later on
> Others who experienced this problem (with CODE examples):
> * http://www.nabble.com/IDataProvider-and-Hibernate-Search-td15546101.html
> * http://www.mail-archive.com/users@wicket.apache.org/msg14266.html
> ---
> The suggested solution of caching the combined search results and count value does not work if the search cannot begin until offset and count are available. And writing a custom DataView is not feasible either time wise as I understand that it cannot be done without needing to write a number of other classes too.
