Changing Wicket text field validation error message

Question

I have a text field that uses a PropertyModel, like this:

TextField<Integer> ageField = new TextField<Integer>("age", 
                      new PropertyModel<Integer>(person, "age"));

When a non-integer value is submitted, the following error is displayed in the browser:

"The value of 'age' is not a valid Integer."

How can I modify this error message?

In Wicket 6 you need to set up a properties file with the inputs Wicket-ID appended by .Required:

myinput.Required = Please provide this input field
