Same AjaxEventBehavior for multiple components - wicket

Question

I add an image and a text component to a WebMarkupContainer as described here:
filter.add(newFilterLabel("textSub", customerText, filtervalue));
filter.add(newFilterImage("imgSub", filtervalue));
For each component, there is an AjaxEventBehavior doing different things. I would like to change it in a way that both do the same thing independent from which component has been clicked on.
private Component newFilterLabel(String id, IModel<String> customText,
final SourceFilterValue currentValue) {
final BBLabel label = new BBLabel(id, customText);
label.add(new AjaxEventBehavior("onclick") {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#Override
protected void onEvent(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
doSomething(currentValue,filteredsources, target);
}
});
return label;
}
private Image newFilterImage(String id, final SourceFilterValue filterValue) {
final Image img = new Image(id, resources.getImage(EXPAND_ICON));
img.add(new AjaxEventBehavior("onclick") {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#Override
protected void onEvent(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
doSomething(img);
}
});
return img;
}
Do you have any suggestions how to change it or any workaround? I use Wicket 1.5.8.

An AjaxBehavior can be bound to a single element only. Either add it to a parent in the hierarchy, or just let both behaviors call the same method:
#Override
protected void onEvent(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
doSomething(filterValue); //filterValue has to be final to be able to access it from the inner class
}
