a static service inside a component? why would you have that? that sounds weird to me
Then you share that services over all sessions, if that is the case then you can just as well make it a single ton class by itself (MyService.getInstance()) johan On Wed, Feb 18, 2009 at 15:52, Christian Helmbold <cryptos...@yahoo.de>wrote: > I've read http://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/spring.html and the corresponding > section in "Wicket in Action" about the troubles with serialization of > injected services. > > "Dependencies often have references to other dependencies in the > container, and so if one is serialized it will probably serialize a few > others and can possibly cascade to serializing the entire container." > (http://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/spring.html) > > As far as I understand this is not a dependency injection specific issue. > In either case all referenced objects are serialized recursively.
