For reasons of sanity, I’ve decided to integrate the content of WicketByExample.com into the Mystic blog. This will provide for easier content management, and hopefully provide an avenue for updates. After talking with a few folks notably Martin Grigorov, I’m particularly excited to see the new stuff coming in 6.0. All content, comments, and original [...]

Here at Mystic, it would come as no surprise to anyone who has read our blogs or worked with our team that we love Apache Wicket. I was pleasantly surprised when the team at Packt Publishing emailed me about reviewing the new Apache Wicket Cookbook. In equal measure I was happy to see that they [...]

I’ve been reading a copy of Apache Wicket Cookbook by Igor Vaynberg and will be posting a review soon. Igor is one of the fantastic core developers for Apache Wicket and seems to have an amazing ability to crank out awesome code, and answer questions on the very active mailing list. Apparently, he might be [...]

Our signature sample is our “5 Days Of Wicket” tutorial app MysticPaste.com. And recently I decided to migrate the app from being proxied by Apache to nginx. We have always backed the pastebin with Jetty and this hasn’t changed. Without further adieu here is our config for nginx: ?View Code XML server { listen 80; [...]

So our little pastebin has been growing up lately! After playing the staring role in 5 days of Wicket as an example project, it’s been used as a public pastebin for almost two years. So as with all older stars, it was in dire need of a facelift. You can click through to the picture [...]

The team that puts on these shows is the same that does the No Fluff Just Stuff tours around the USA. This show though, and Überconf before it are all about longer more in-depth sessions so you [...]

Here at Mystic, we love Apache Wicket for it’s clean separation of mark-up and logic, simple POJO data model and one of the first web frameworks to espouse lack of XML as a benefit. 1. Download Apache Maven. 2. Install it and ensure that the mvn executable is in your path. 3. Run the following [...]

In mid march I attended SDC2010 in Göteborg, Sweden. The event was very well attended with nearly 700 people and was filled with a wealth of great speakers. Some of the sessions I enjoyed were Matthew McCullough, Steven “Doc” List, Tim Berglund, and of course Kent Beck … too many to count. There definitely seemed [...]

Andrew has just accepted speaking at the first Über Conf 2010 being held in Denver, Colorado. A quick description of the conference: Über Conf 2010 will offer over 100 technically focused sessions on Java the Platform including hands on workshops centered around Architecture, Cloud, Security, Enterprise Java, Languages on the JVM, Build/Test, Mobility and Agility.

We’ve been seeing more and more implementations of IPageStore out in the wild for Apache Wicket. The interface basically decides how Wicket will store the Pagemap for your application. The default that ships with Wicket uses DiskPageStore which is an implementation that stores the serialized pages grouped in a single file per pagemap. After reading [...]
