I am making an application in which I want to integrate Wicket + Spring.
Application is a grocery store on which user comes and buy something. I know
there are two ways to do this.

1. Using the *annotation *aprroach. Wicket-Spring integration shows various
ways on how to inject Spring   Beans into Wicket pages.

public class FormPage extends WebPage
{
  @SpringBean
  private IContact icontact;
  ...
  Form form = new Form("contactForm",
     new CompoundPropertyModel(contact))
  {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    protected void onSubmit(Contact contact)
    {               
      icontact.saveContact(contact);
    }
  }; 


2. The @SpringBean is of course valid and considered a best practice by
many. But there is also *another approach*, where your Wicket Application
has the services you need.

public class YourWicketApp extends WebApplication{
  public static YourWicketApp get(){
    return (YourWicketApp) Application.get();
  }
  private ServiceA serviceA;
  // getter and setter for serviceA here
}

Now in your component, call

YourWicketApp.get().getServiceA();



I want to know which is the best way to integrate spring with wicket.


/However as far as I remember Wicket pages and components aren't managed by
Spring container so you cannot use @Transactional annotation on them (which
is a bad idea anyway - transactions belong to deeper levels)./ *Is this
statement valid?*
