Wicket - Relative Image Path without Mounting Page

I have a little problem with image relative path and not-mounted page in Wicket.

Take this code inside a generic Page (ex MyPage.java):

final DatePicker<Date> date = new DatePicker<Date>("date",true);
date.setButtonImage("img/calendar.gif");

img directory is stored inside WebContent directory.

The image is not correctly showed unless I mount the page in WebApplication. Without mounting the page, the relative url has to be considered starting from the java class path.

How Can I build the correct image url from WebContent without mounting the page?

Thanks

Solution

  • If you need the path you can use

    date.setButtonImage(UrlUtils.rewriteToContextRelative("img/calendar.gif", getRequestCycle()));

    That's how ContextImage works. If your DatePicker would accept another component as the image you could use this class directly.
