For the last couple of months I've been building in Wicket to replace an
ASP.NET application.  My impression is that ASP.NET is the best thing
I've ever seen for doing a "one-of".  Any page content that I'm going to
build and use in just one page (or simply "include" with no
modifications in a variety of places) is incredibly easy to do in
ASP.NET.

Wicket is far superior for situations where I need to do the same _kind_
of thing in a variety of different places, but with variations.  With
Wicket it is easier to build and use a component with a variety of
constructors, and with methods that can be easily replaced each time I
use it.

Subject: Re: [Wicket-user] The other side of Wicket ...

Oh yeah, just jokes, .NET is a pretty great technology...though it
still requires far more work than the EJB3+Wicket combo.

MS's tools are great, they have a snazzy IDE...but I still prefer
Eclipse...perhaps because of its open nature and breadth of industry
support both pro & amateur.

The tools are also the problem....you can't rely on much else outside
of MS's visual studio tools to do the job.  I personally hate WYSIWYG
environments and writing asp.net pages, controls, etc. w/o the editor
can be quite tedious.

JSF's similarity to ASP.NET is one reason I didn't want to use
it...not to mention all of the strange issues I had heard of w/ JSF
1.1.

.NET has it's place...but now that EJB3 is a finalized spec...I doubt
it can keep up w/ Java EE 5 and beyond in a one-on-one comparison.
