It works like a charm. Very cool!
Just want to chime in real quick and say that the thing that Timur is
doing with Wicket in OSGi is *precisely* the same application
architecture I had in mind. Basically, deploy the Jetty
HTTPService and
the Wicket core as bundles in Oscar, and then deploy a Wicket-based
application as a Oscar bundle that uses the exposed HTTPService to
register itself as a servlet/web application.
IMO, Wicket's unique component-based model makes it a natural fit for
OSGi, and in fact, the Wicket QuickStart kit is just screaming to be
Oscar-ized. The QuickStart kit has a Java main class that starts
up an
embedded Jetty instance, and then registers the Wicket Web application
as a servlet. Same principal here, except we're asking the Oscar
container to manage the Jetty instance, the Wicket library core, and
provide a means for another bundle (app) to register itself with the
servlet container.
I'm very excited about Timur's trailblazing, and I know that Alex
Karasulu is very interested in seeing Wicket applications operate
in the
Oscar container. With the Apache Directory project
(http://directory.apache.org/) and the Safehaus Identity Management
servers (http://safehaus.org/) moving to Oscar, they are looking for a
web application framework to serve up the remote management
consoles of
these servers.
Thanks a lot to both Timur and Eelco!
Regards,
Timothy
