Don't forget to read the first chapter of Wicket In Action, which you
can download for free at: http://www.manning.com/dashorst/. I do my
best there to explain what kind of problems Wicket solves.

Good to hear, thanks. We're amateur writers, but we've gone (and going
through) great pains to make it a useful book :-)

Evaluating Wicket

2008-02-06 Thread René Samselnig

Hi people,

currently I'm evaluating wicket as the future framework in our company. I
already found a lot of information but still there is some missing. I hope
you can help me out answering these questions.

* What experience do you have regarding performance of wicket applications?
* Is there a way to cluster wicket applications?
* Does wicket use any proprietary, non-standard technologies?
* How does wicket care about session hijacking or sql injection?
* Is there an easy way to implement SSO?
* Can I integrate wicket applications into any content management system?

If you have an answer to any of these questions don't hesitate to ignore the
others - any input is welcome!

Thanks in advance,
René

Theres the performace project check it out and see for yourself?

http://wicket-stuff.svn.sf.net/svnroot/wicket-stuff/wicket-benchmark

* Is there a way to cluster wicket applications?
  

Sure.. Do it via the tomcat/apache2 etc...

http://wicket-stuff.svn.sf.net/svnroot/wicket-stuff/wicket-cluster

* Does wicket use any proprietary, non-standard technologies?
* How does wicket care about session hijacking or sql injection?
  
See the Blog http://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/blog-tutorial.html 
tutorial for injection.. Session hijacking I dont know..



* Is there an easy way to implement SSO?
  

Not sure..
http://cwiki.apache.org/DIRxINTEROP/kerberos-authentication-to-wicket.html ?

* Can I integrate wicket applications into any content management system?

  
I've done so by having wicket run in a iframe and passing parameters via 
urls... Also if your cms can handle portlets that might be the way to 
go, since wicket can run as a portlet too..

If you have an answer to any of these questions don't hesitate to ignore the
others - any input is welcome!

Thanks in advance,
René
  


Try to search a bit on the wiki btw, theres a lot there..:)

Hi,
 I'm myself discovering Wicket, but I'll try to nswer some of your questions
;)


René Samselnig wrote:
 
 * What experience do you have regarding performance of wicket
 applications?
 

I haven't built a large application with Wicket yet, but in a JPA CRUD
examples I made, Wicket performs better than JSF IMO, I mean I did not made
a serious benchmarking, but I can notice the difference with my bare eyes.

René Samselnig wrote:
 
 * Is there a way to cluster wicket applications?
 
Hell yes ! It's one of the major features of the 1.3 version I think.


René Samselnig wrote:
 
 * Does wicket use any proprietary, non-standard technologies?
 
Well, being an Open Source and ASF Licensed, the answer is clearly NO.


René Samselnig wrote:
 
 * How does wicket care about session hijacking or sql injection?
 
Session Hijacking: One nifty feature of Wicket is that you can pass
parameters betwwen pages as Java parameters, thus not exposing them outside
the runtime environment.
Regarding the SQL Injection, this has absolutely nothing to do with Wicket
nor any other Web Framework.
JDBC solves this (using the query parameters).


René Samselnig wrote:
 
 * Is there an easy way to implement SSO?
 
Sorry, this question is not not for me.


René Samselnig wrote:
 
 * Can I integrate wicket applications into any content management system?
 
Well, this seems a bit delicate to achieve in Wicket, for the simple reason
of the 1..1 relationship between a HTML page and a WebPage class ...

Regards.

Re: Evaluating Wicket

2008-02-06 Thread Scott Swank
The chief advantage in my mind is that the code is all Java.  I was
easily (2 dozen lines of code) able to write a behavior that
replicates model between related form components so that when someone
types a first name into a field it is replicated to other first name
fields and those fields are updated real-time via ajax.  (The person
who is checking into the hotel is usually the person who is picking up
the tickets to the show, for example).  That sort of flexibility means
that I have not hit a nasty road block with Wicket.

Cheers,
Scott

Re: Evaluating Wicket

2008-02-06 Thread Patrick Angeles

Hi Rene,

Some answers...

* What experience do you have regarding performance of wicket applications?
We're still in development, but so far performance hasn't been an issue.

* Is there a way to cluster wicket applications?
Yes. Same way you would cluster any webapp. Wicket also has a number of
different clustering strategies available.

* Does wicket use any proprietary, non-standard technologies?
Wicket core depends on various OSS libraries, all commercial friendly (ASL
compatible).

* How does wicket care about session hijacking or sql injection?

Session hijacking - not an expert on this, but if I understand correctly,
this is mostly a JavaScript concern, so just be careful when you write/use
Javascript components.
SQL Injection - In general, Wicket's architecture makes it harder for these
kinds of attacks because state is kept on the server side (as opposed to URL
parameters). That being said, this really has more to do with the
persistence layer that you use. So long as you shy away from assembling your
own SQL query strings you should be OK.

* Is there an easy way to implement SSO?
Internal SSO between webapps is possible via the Servlet container, provided
all webapps run in the same container. If that doesn't apply to you, you
should be able to write a custom authorization strategy for Wicket.

* Can I integrate wicket applications into any content management system?
Depends on what you want to do here. That being said, there are several
native Wicket CMS systems under development.

Ah, just an addition about performance:
  Session size can be a bottleneck in performance, so one have just to be
careful about what to put in his session and by using detachable models for
example.

be careful only to evaluate performance in wicket in deployment mode.
development mode is subject to a potentially very high level of overhead
that you don't want to profile.
