How to communicate between wizard pages [message #460342]

I'm trying to change the data of a widget on a (second) page according to
the contents of the widgets of another (first) page. The processing of the
data to be loaded on the widget is very complex and it shouldn't be done
more that once.
I've been searching for a method in the first or in the second page that
allows me to call it between the "next" button on the first page and the
moment the second page shows up.
I've tryed the getNextPage() method, but it get called before the user
pushes "next" button, so it gives fake results
any ideas?
thanks!

You could override the second page's setVisible() to do something like:

public void setVisible(boolean visible)
{
super.setVisible(visible);
initializeMyDataHere();
}
