while struts 2 does not put anything into session, you as a developer eventually will because there will eventually be a page that is too complex to manage by passing data via urls. why spend two days rewiring a bunch of code to add more url parameters for a new page feature when you can just stick it into session and call it a day, right? what if the data is too long to fit in a url and you cant use a POST? this has eventually happened in every web-project ive worked on that used jsps or mvc-type frameworks, and ive worked on a lot of them before i found Wicket. and no, it wasnt just me sticking things into session :) you may think that this is still less data then a Wicket page, and per particular usecase you are probably right. but, once you add up all the state that developers start sticking into session eventually it is going to get very large. why Wicket eventually wins out is because it manages state like this. Wicket is like a garbage collector for your session. so even though it has a higher session size out of the door, in the long run it actually ends up saving you that size. of course this is just my experience... -igor > > One day, if a startup I work at takes off and I make enough mula to not have > to work, I would love to write an app in spring, struts, wicket, couple > others.. and compare the details and differences. > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://apache-wicket.1842946.n4.nabble.com/Apache-Wicket-is-a-Flawed-Framework-tp4080411p4087996.html > Sent from the Users forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
