Currently, embedding Wink requires extending multiple Wink Server classes, particularly if you want to add special handlers etc. It seems that some of this could be simplified, particularly in the case of adding user specific handlers. I was wondering if, instead of having to provide my own DeploymentConfiguration that needs to override the specific handler initialization method, we could expose the actual list of handlers in the Wink DeploymentConfiguration and allow embedders to add new handlers to this list in the getDeploymentConfiguration in the Servlet ? This might also require some updates on how the handler chain is processed, basically delaying the initialization of the handler chain or updating the AbstractHandlersChain to process userHandlers and Handlers as two separate lists.
Thoughts ? In case people are ok with this approach, I have a patch in hand that I can provide. -- Luciano Resende http://people.apache.org/~lresende http://twitter.com/lresende1975 http://lresende.blogspot.com/
