I have tried out the Wicket framework and many things I really like about it. Some observations:
- Wicket changes drastically between versions, and even between minor versions / release candidates, things suddenly disappear from the API, sometimes without having been flagged as deprecated ; - as a result, many times the example code you find on the web or in books like 'Wicket in Action' does no longer work as is - the Javadoc of the source is quite OK for some classes, but for the great majority any textual explanations there are either sparse or absent - luckily the mailing list is nothing short of fantastic ! - I agree that it is rather too easy for Wicket to make things stateful, when you don't want it - and in my opinion the stuff you need to do to achieve "normal" URLs (no ?, no version number, no nothing) is just a pain. *Every* URL, for stateless or stateless pages or whatever, should be "normal", otherwise it is just not acceptable -- users never want to see those complicated-looking URLs under any circumstance - did not yet try out Ajax with Wicket, so I have no opinion on that Just my 2¢. In all, a great framework that is much easier to use than e.g. things based on JSP. Keep up the good work, guys !
