The typical Wicket Way (tm) of doing this is using the RestartResponseAtInterceptPageException [1]
The wicket-auth-roles project and the new wicket-security projects hosted at WicketStuff also use it to guard authorized pages. Using a framework as Acegi limits you to URL based authorization/authentication. The component nature of Wicket allows even finer grained access to data at the component level. A typical way for applications to secure pages is to create a secure and a non-secure hierarchy. The non-secure pages are viewable publicly (for instance your login page) and the privacy/protected pages will inherit from the secure base page. In its constructor you check if the user credentials are set on the session, if not, throw RestartResponseAtInterceptPageException and be done with it :) Martijn [1] http://wicket.sourceforge.net/apidocs/wicket/RestartResponseAtInterceptPageException.html On 5/28/07, Luca Marrocco <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm not sure that exist a better way to do anything in software but a > better way for specific problem and people.
