Re: new wicket site live: online.ddpoker.com (+1 for generics)
Doug, Another congratulations from me. I took a look at the site and I might just sign up. My dad likes to play Texas Hold 'em and I'd like to kick his butt! :) Glad to hear the generic model/components work for you too. I'm using them and there have been some headaches, but overall I like the clarity.

Doug, Congratulations on getting your site into production so quickly - I hope it's a big success. It sounds like you are more than satisfied with your decision to choose Wicket for your presentation layer and importantly, it's especially encouraging to get a resounding thumbs up for all the hard work the Wicket committers have been putting into the "generic"isation of Wicket's models (despite all the debate about the wisdom of extending this components - they don't even all use models (?!)), especially coming from someone who has pushed these new Wicket constructs in the real world.

new wicket site live: online.ddpoker.com (+1 for generics)
Hi All: We launched the new http://online.ddpoker.com/ yesterday. It replaces an old JSP/JDBC site with wicket/spring/jpa/hibernate. The site is 100% bookmarkable. The site also uses the wicketstuff-annotations project that we contributed. One cool thing we did with the annotations/bookmarkable pages was map the old legacy jsp pages to the new wicket counterparts, including mapping the old query parameters. Wicket made this trivial to do. Other useful things we did in wicket: a bookmarkable paging navigator (which is used across the site), components to show negative percent/dollars in red, and a highlighting widget used to show matching search results. We are using Wicket 1.4-trunk (as of yesterday due to a fix we submitted). We migrated from 1.3.x to 1.4 mid-project. Getting used to generics took about 1 1/2 days, but was well worth the effort. Consider this a two-thumbs-up success story for generics. Thanks to the people on this list who answered my questions. I hope to add more lessons learned to my wiki page this week (http://wiki.donohoedigital.com/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=Wicket%20Notes). -Doug Donohoe -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/new-wicket-site-live%3A--online.ddpoker.com-%28%2B1-for-generics%29-tp17612580p17612580.html Sent from the Wicket - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
