Package org.apache.wicket.extensions.wizard


package org.apache.wicket.extensions.wizard

Package for working with Wizard components. Wizards are dialogs which take users through a number of steps to achieve something.

The main component is wicket.extensions.wizard, which serves as the panel on which the whole wizard is rendered. It is possible to implement

wicket.extensions.wizard.IWizard directly, but it is not recommended. The wizard cooperates with an instance of wicket.extensions.wizard.IWizardModel, for which the default implementation wicket.extensions.wizard.WizardModel is provided. This model knows about the wizard's steps and the transitions between them, and it holds a reference to the currently active step. It might function as a generic state holder for the wizard too, though you might find it more convenient to use the wizard component itself for that, or even an external model. See the wizard example of the wicket-examples project for some examples of wizards.

The Swing Wizard Framework served as a valueable source of inspiration as did discussions with Michael Jouravlev and Tim Boudreau.
