[Wicket-user] Broadest appeal for Wicket
I have a little background in OO and am a strong advocate, though I know it needs to be done well, just like anything else. And I have some beginning competence in Java and use it with Eclipse. So Wicket has great appeal for me. However, not being familiar with the various web development layers (Spring, Struts, Hibernate, Jetty ad infinitum), I soon find myself in 'configuration hell' when trying to use Wicket. Even the clearest, most basic instructions I've found assume experience I don't have. Perhaps I'm an audience of one but I hope the forthcoming Wicket in Action book will make it easier for anyone like me who is strongly drawn to Wicket but has a background web developers would consider inadequate. Maybe it's asking too much, since I've looked at every tutorial and guide I could find and most are very good. If they required no prior knowledge of anything but Java, though, they would reach a wider audience. Dave --- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
