Re: Application.get() from WicketSessionFilter?

[Ryan McKinley]

I just found that for this use case, I can use spring directly from  
the servlet:

  ServletContext servletContext =this.getServletContext();
  WebApplicationContext ctx =
     
WebApplicationContextUtils 
.getRequiredWebApplicationContext(servletContext);
  UserDAO dao = (UserDAO)ctx.getBean( "userDao" );
thanks

Hello-

Any advice on how to get the Application from a non-wicket servlet?   
I have the session filter working well, so I can get the user  
session.  However, I only store the name in the sesion, and in the  
session class call:

  public User getUser()
  {
    if( userName != null ) {
      UserDAO dao = ((BaseApplication) getApplication()).getUserDao();
      return dao.fetch( userName );
    }
    return null;
  }

That gives me an error:
org.apache.wicket.WicketRuntimeException: There is no application  
attached to current thread btpool0-1
        at org.apache.wicket.Application.get(Application.java:177)
        ...

Any pointers on how to get around this?  Is it possible to have the  
WicketSessionFilter also bind the Application?

Thanks in advance!  You guys are great.
