Hi,

COMET is not implemented as a core feature at this time.

Do you have a specific use case where you would like to use it for?
That might be a good start to investigate the options.
  
One use case would be, a application with a small group of users.  The users have a page where they can add/remove data (Spring/Hibernate backend), and also see the existing entries in a table on the same page.  When one user adds/removes data I would like to be able to push updates out to update the table of existing entries for all the other users.


That being said I would like to build something as generic as possible.  I realize the data/_javascript_ that server pushes out will have to be custom for each specific use case, but it would be nice to have an API somewhat like DWR, that allows you to get all the sessions for a particular page, and the push out updates. (i.e.)


Collection sessions = WebContextFactory.get().getScriptSessionsByPage("/index.html");
DwrUtil util = new DwrUtil(sessions);

util.setValue("message", "Hello, World!");

I've experimented with (and had limited success) placing a ServletFilter in front of the wicket servlet, and pulling off request that had certain attributes, and blocking them, until new data was available (Very similiar to the Jetty 6.0 Continuation chat application example). 


At this point I'm really trying to get a sense of what the best way is to create a generic API similar to above, that I can later apply to specific solutions.   Is using a ServletFilter the right approach?   Can you think of another way that provides better cohesion with wicket?



Thanks,

Hi,


I was searching the mailing lists and noticed a few comments about
Reverse Ajax and COMET.  Mainly jokes about who would ask about it first
:) .  Has anybody made any serious attempts to add DWR like reverse-ajax
support to wicket?


If not does anybody have any suggestions on what the best/*right* way
would be to add this type of feature to wicket's framework?



Thanks for any advice you can give.
