Hi,
I've put together a project based on Wicket & Oracle which I'd hope could serve
as a good starting point for applications based on these 2 technologies.
My background is in writing large applications based upon Oracle & I wrote this
to learn about Wicket & Java and also to prove to myself that best practices
from the database world - which sadly I've rarely seen implemented in modern
web applications! - such as:
- using individual database users to represent real users - giving end-to-end
authentication & allowing the use of features such as SQL Trace & fine grained
auditing
- using database roles to restrict access to data, and not relying wholly on
application enforced security
are compatible with modern web application frameworks. Wicket definitely didn't
give me too many headaches!
It's on github at:
https://github.com/andrewah/Wicket---Oracle-Template
It'd be fair to say that some of my Java may not be of the highest standard, so
if anyone has the inclination to look at this, any constructive feedback would
be appreciated.
Cheers,
Andrew.
