Hello,

I am trying to implement a simple authorization strategy for my Wicket
application. I am implemented my own AuthorizationStrategy (extending
IAuthorizationStrategy).

http://old.nabble.com/Authorization-strategy-help-td18948597.html After
reading the above link, I figured it makes more sense to use
metadata-driven authorization than one using Annotations.

So I have a simple RoleCheck class

public class RoleCheck {

private String privilege;

public RoleCheck(String priv) { this.privilege = priv; }

public void setPrivilege(String privilege) { this.privilege = privilege; }

public String getPrivilege() { return privilege; }

}

I add it a component public static MetaDataKey priv = new MetaDataKey()
{}; editLink.setMetaData(priv, new RoleCheck("Update"));

And in my Authorization Strategy class, I try to get the metadata
associated with the component

public boolean isActionAuthorized(Component component, Action action) { if
(action.equals(Component.RENDER)) { RoleCheck privCheck = (RoleCheck)
component.getMetaData(EditControlToolBar.priv); if (privCheck != null) {
... } }

However the getMetaData gives an error "Bound mismatch: The generic method
getMetaData(MetaDataKey) of type Component is not applicable for the
arguments (MetaDataKey). The inferred type RoleCheck is not a valid
substitute for the bounded parameter "

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
