You can use annotations or spring-javaconfig with Spring if you don't want to go through too much XML configuration. That criticism is really unwarranted these days. The annotation-style configuration is very similar to how Guice works, whereas spring-javaconfig is basically like writing the spring.xml file in Java code. The latter is nice in that all the wiring is centralized, but you still get the benefits of working with a Java IDE, such as refactoring or searching for occurences.
There's probably some easy way to hook Guice up with the Spring transaction manager, but I've never tried. And yes, you should be able to run Wicket in an EJB3 Container, but you'll have to deal with some boilerplate code that will allow you to inject your EJB3 services into Wicket components... Personally, I would recommend going with Wicket, Spring and Hibernate (or JPA) via spring-javaconfig. jpswain wrote: > > I'm just curious what everyone is using for transaction management.
