Hi all, I have an application which gets deployed into different web app contexts of a Tomcat simply be naming the folder of the context differently. So "application" is hosted as "application1", "application2" etc. simply by copying the generic folder of "application" into a new target and do some minor configuration changes. The point is, that web.xml keeps the same for all installations within one Tomcat.
Today I had a look at using JMX with Wicket and recognized, that the name of the application by default is set to the name the Wicket filter gets in web.xml. Because that's generic in my case I'm unable to distinguish what the JMX console shows me, it's always called the same and I can't see to which application it belongs. Two options now: Either one has to change web.xml for each folder or provide some logic to set the application name on runtime, e.g. depending on the folder name. I would prefer the latter and tested a bit around Application.setName, but this doesn't seem to work, because setName can only be called once and WicketFilter currently always calls it. So regardless if someone wants to call it earlier or afterwards, it will always result in an error. Is that expected behavior, should no application be able to provide another name at all? Or is there any other way to set the name on my own without WicketFilter trying to do the same? The relevant code in WicketFilter is the following: > public void init(final boolean isServlet, final FilterConfig filterConfig) [...] > // locate application instance unless it was already > specified during construction > if (application == null) > { > applicationFactory = getApplicationFactory(); > application = > applicationFactory.createApplication(this); > } > > application.setName(filterConfig.getFilterName()); > application.setWicketFilter(this); This looks to me as if setName is effectively useless for anyone except WicketFilter, because it's always called there. Thanks for your help!
