Jeremy Thomerson commented on WICKET-670:
-----------------------------------------
@Igor - I think that's a good idea. Here's my suggestion:
Create subpackage wicket-devutils
In it, put the inspector (and related utilties) as well as the new
@StatelessComponent
Add to it a common place that all such dev utilities get their on/off switch
(which will read from application's debug settings, perhaps)
Enable it in dev by default, off in prod by default, but have a way that it can
be enabled in production (by setting the value in debug settings)
As Jon suggested - the pages will throw an exception if they are accessed and
are disabled at the time.
Thoughts?
> Bring back the inspector!

> Key: WICKET-670
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-670
> Project: Wicket
> 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!
