Jeremy Thomerson commented on WICKET-670:
-----------------------------------------
I just tried using the inspector with a quickstart and it seemed to work okay
(1.4-SNAPSHOT). Here's what I did to try it:
1 - change wicket-examples pom.xml to temporarily build as jar (rather than war)
2 - mvn clean install in wicket-examples, locally
3 - add dependency in my quickstart pom on wicket-examples
4 - add inspectorbug to page (i also mounted inspectorpage as bookmarkable -
but that's beside the point)
It seems to work.
I would suggest, however, that we move it out of wicket-examples and into a
"wicket-inspector" (or similar) subproject of its own. Thoughts?
Could we do this with 1.4? Or since we're in RC already, should it wait to
1.5? I don't think that it would require any API changes - since it seems like
you can't use it in your app now anyway without rebuilding wicket-examples on
your own.

> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: wicket
> Affects Versions: 1.4-M1
> Reporter: Jonathan Locke
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.5-M1

>
> My copy of the inspector is completely broken. It's a shame that this useful
> tool is not really supported anymore. It gives people a sense of confidence
> when they can navigate their wicket session and see all the components with
> the inspector.
> To bring the inspector back, we could do the following things:
> 1. fix the inspector
> - it needs to factor out the stack trace metadata so sizes of things are
> more accurate
> - my inspector causes every page viewed after using it to fail with a page
> expired exception (!)
> 2. add a security setting setInspectorEnabled() which defaults to false
> (disabled) and unless
> the inspector is explicitly enabled, the constructor of every publicly
> accessible bookmarkable
> page in the inspector package throws an IllegalStateException() with an
> explanation of what
> you must do to safely use the inspector in your application (add security to
> the pages via
> wicket-auth-roles or some other means and call setInspectorEnabled(true)).
> then we can all enjoy the return of the inspector!
