Installing
...
Wicket
...
on
...
Eclipse
...
with
...
Maven
Download & Install Maven
Maven is a project management tool. It does a million things, but I only know three of those things. We'll use Maven to get the Wicket Quickstart, convert it to an Eclipse project, and package our WARs. But first we need to get Maven.
1. Go to http://maven.apache.org/download.html
...
.
...
2. Click the "apache-maven-2.0.10-bin.zip"
...
link.
...
- Click
...
- the
...
- link
...
- at
...
- the
...
- top
...
- of
...
- the
...
- page.
...
- That
...
- will
...
- prompt
...
- you
...
- to
...
- download
...
- a
...
- file
...
- called
...
- apache-maven-2.0.10-bin.zip
...
- .
...
- Save
...
- it
...
- to
...
- your
...
- desktop.
...
- Inside
...
- the
...
- zip
...
- file
...
- is
...
- a
...
- folder
...
- called
...
- apache-maven-2.0.10
...
- . Drag that folder and put it directly onto your C: drive--C:\apache-maven-2.0.10
...
- _
...
- .
...
- _*IMPORTANT
...
- *-
...
- -
...
- Maven
...
- has
...
- problems
...
- if
...
- its
...
- path
...
- has
...
- any
...
- spaces
...
- in
...
- it.
...
- For
...
- example,
...
- don't
...
- put
...
- Maven
...
- under
...
- your
...
- "Program
...
- Files"
...
- folder,
...
- since
...
- there's
...
- a
...
- space
...
- in
...
- "Program
...
- Files".
...
- Add
...
- an
...
- environment
...
- variable
...
- called
...
- MAVEN_HOME
...
- with
...
- a
...
- value
...
- of
...
- C:\apache-maven-2.0.10
...
- .
...
- You
...
- can
...
- learn
...
- how
...
- to
...
- set
...
- environment
...
- variables
...
- here:
...
...
- Add
...
- Maven's
...
- "bin"
...
- directory
...
- to
...
- your
...
- PATH
...
- environment
...
- variable.
...
- In
...
- this
...
- case,
...
- you
...
- can
...
- just
...
- paste
; C:\apache-maven-2.0.10\bin
...
to
...
- the
...
- end
...
- of
...
- your
...
- PATH.
...
- Don't
...
- forget
...
- to
...
- put
...
- the
...
- semicolon
...
- in
...
- front,
...
- to
...
- separate
...
- it
...
- from
...
- anything
...
- that's
...
- already
...
- in
...
- your
...
- PATH.
...
- If
...
- you
...
- don't
...
- have
...
- a
...
- JAVA_HOME
...
- environment
...
- variable,
...
- then
...
- create
...
- one
...
- of
...
- those
...
- too,
...
- pointing
...
- at
...
- a
...
- JDK
...
- installation
...
- on
...
- your
...
- computer.
...
- Now
...
- you
...
- have
...
- Maven
...
- ready
...
- to
...
- go.
...
- You
...
- can
...
- check
...
- that
...
- it's
...
- been
...
- installed
...
- correctly
...
- by
...
- opening
...
- a
...
- command
...
- prompt
...
- (Start
...
- ->
...
- Run...
...
- ->
...
- cmd)
...
- and
...
- typing
...
- in
...
- "mvn
...
- -version".
...
- That
...
- should
...
- display
...
- a
...
- couple
...
- lines
...
- of
...
- information
...
- about
...
- your
...
- Maven
...
- installation.
...
-

Wicket
...
Quickstart
...
We're
...
almost
...
there.
...
Everything

you've

done

will

never

This

all

the

Whenever

you

you

of

the

files

and

libraries
...
necessary

to

make
...
a
...
Wicket
...
project.
...
It
...
lives
...
in
...
the
...
Maven
...
repository,
...
so
...
we'll
...
use
...
Maven
...
to
...
download
...
it
...
and
...
build
...
it,
...
and
...
then
...
we'll
...
import
...
it
...
into
...
Eclipse
...
for
...
you
...
to
...
play
...
with.
...
- Create

Running the Application
Congratulations! You've
...
installed
...
the
...
necessary
...
software
...
and
...
built
...
your
...
first
...
Wicket
...
project.
...
Now
...
lets
...
look
...
at
...
the
...
project
...
files
...
and
...
get
...
it
...
running.
...
- In
...
- the
...
- Package
...
- Explorer
...
- on
...
- the
...
- left
...
- hand
...
- side
...
- of
...
- the
...
- screen,
...
- you'll
...
- now
...
- see
...
- a
...
- folder
...
- called
...
- "firstWicketProject".
...
- If
...
- you
...
- expand
...
- that
...
- folder
...
- you'll
...
- lots
...
- of
...
- stuff.
...
- The important items are src/main/java
...
- ,
...
- src/test/java
...
- ,
...
- and
...
- src
...
- .
...
- src/main/java
...
- contains
...
- the
...
- project
...
- Java
...
- and
...
- HTML
...
- files.
...
- This
...
- is
...
- where
...
- you'll
...
- add
...
- new
...
- pages.
...
- src/test/java
...
- contains
...
- the
...
- embedded
...
- server.
...
- We'll
...
- come
...
- back
...
- here
...
- in
...
- a
...
- minute.
...
- src contains your web.xml
...
- file.
...
- You'll
...
- find
...
- it
...
- under
...
- src/main/webapp/WEB-INF
...
- .
...
- Use
...
- that
...
- to
...
- set
...
- up
...
- your
...
- project
...
- configuration.
...
- Now
...
- go
...
- back
...
- to
...
- src/test/java
...
- .
...
- Inside
...
- you'll
...
- see
...
- a
...
- package
...
- that
...
- has
...
- the
...
- same
...
- name
...
- as
...
- the
...
- GroupId
...
- you
...
- entered
...
- on
...
- the
...
- Quickstart
...
- website.
...
- Expand
...
- the
...
- package
...
- inside
...
- src/test/java
...
- and
...
- you'll
...
- see
...
- a
...
- Java
...
- file
...
- called
...
- Start.java.
...
- Right-click
...
- Start.java
...
- and
...
- go
...
- down
...
- to
...
- "Debug
...
- as..."
...
- and
...
- select
...
- "Java
...
- Application".
...
- You'll
...
- see
...
- the
...
- server
...
- starting
...
- up
...
- inside
...
- the
...
- console
...
- at
...
- the
...
- bottom
...
- of
...
- the
...
- screen.
...
- To
...
- test
...
- to
...
- see
...
- if
...
- everything
...
- is
...
- working,
...
- open
...
- a
...
- browser
...
- and
...
- go
...
- to
...
...
- .
...
- You
...
- should
...
- see
...
- a
...
- message
...
- telling
...
- you
...
- and
...
- Wicket
...
- is
...
- running.
...
- To
...
- stop
...
- the
...
- server,
...
- click
...
- the
...
- red
...
- square
...
- at
...
- the
...
- top
...
- right
...
- of
...
- the
...
- console
...
- in
...
- Eclipse.
...
- You
...
- may
...
- need
...
- to
...
- stop
...
- and
...
- start
...
- the
...
- server
...
- after
...
- you
...
- make
...
- programming
...
- changes
...
- in
...
- order
...
- for
...
- the
...
- changes
...
- to
...
- take effect.
Bonus Section
That's
...
just
...
about
...
everything.
...
Now
...
you're
...
ready
...
to
...
go
...
into
...
your
...
src/main/java
...
and
...
start
...
building
...
your
...
application.
...
However,
...
there's
...
one
...
more
...
change
...
I
...
suggest
...
you
...
make.
...
- Go
...
- back
...
- to
...
- src/test/java
...
- and
...
- open
...
- the
...
- Start.java
...
- file
...
- into
...
- the
...
- Eclipse
...
- editor.
...
- Delete
...
- the
...
- entire
...
- contents
...
- of
...
- the
...
- file
...
- and
...
- paste
...
- in
...
- the
...
- following
...
- instead.
...
- I
...
- find
...
- this
...
- change
...
- helps
...
- the
...
- embedded
...
- server
...
- to
...
- pick
...
- up
...
- your
...
- code
...
- changes
...
- without
...
- needing
...
- to
...
- be
...
- restarted.
