make client-side redirects easier by introducing RedirectException
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WICKET-4355
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-4355
Project: Wicket
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: wicket
Affects Versions: 1.4.19
Reporter: Peter Ertl
Assignee: Peter Ertl
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.4.20
In wicket 1.5 and 6.0 we have RestartResponseException with a redirect policy
to enforce a client side redirect. In 1.4 we need the following code fragment:
getRequestCycle().setRedirect(true)
throw new RestartResponseException(page)
Since client-side redirects to pages are very common I find it discouraging
that wicket users have to get into some of the guts of request cycle just to
understand the above fragment. Also client-side redirects will not work with
page instances like here
getRequestCycle().setRedirect(true)
throw new RestartResponseException(new MyPage())
By introducing RedirectException this very(!) common use case will be a lot
easier and more terse and though we want people to migrate to 1.5 or, even
better, 6.0 it will not hurt to give some love to 1.4.
