We have got to make choices as our time is limited. You can debate on
whether it is better to have many small examples, or one (or a few)
large ones. I like small but focused examples much better (also in
other projects), as they can function as HOW-TOs, and they don't
distract too much from the thing you are trying to achieve. It's a
matter of taste I guess, but for instance I don't like the big-ass
example in Tapestry In Action (too far-fetched) but love the way
Programming Ruby (http://www.rubycentral.com/book/ ) is set up. And I
think as far as small examples go, we're doing pretty good with
wicket-examples, which include a component reference.
Real large examples don't exist for the simple reason that it'll take
us too much time to build and maintain. We all have our day jobs,
normal Wicket involvement, and sometimes even a tiny little bit of
private life.
There are some medium sized ones though. Phone book (wicket-
phonebook) is a crud example that displays Spring and Hibernate,
CDapp (wicket-stuff/wicket-contrib-examples) is a crud example with
Hibernate and some things like image handling is displayed. Finally
there are - besides urls which you already found - some examples with
the databinder project (http://databinder.net/phone-directory.html).
Wicket is also used in a bunch of projects that I know off. An open
source project using Wicket is http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?
group_id=135610
Anyone is free to write a big example for us of course, or convince
someone else to do that (there are a couple of guys out there that
seem to make their living building examples on frameworks) :)
