So you agree that serializing a page instance while the request is still being processed (my current approach) is likely the cause of the glitches I'm seeing with some (put not all) of the pages , right ?

That's what I meant.

You could just mark the page to be "bookmarked" (e.g. via MetaData on the
RequestCycle) and hook into DefaultPageStore#**storePageData() to store
the page alongside in the database.

I don't think this will help much.
The page can be requested from the DB much later when the disk store has no
info about this page or even the http session that the page belongs to.
Any interaction with the rendered page will lead to PageExpiredException
because the following request will search in the disk store, not in the DB.

I think a custom IPageStore will be needed ..

Hi,

I'm currently investigating a bug in our application that is most likely
caused by the very "brute-force" way I implemented a generic in-app
bookmarking feature.

The basic requirement is something along the lines of "Users should be
able to create an (internal) bookmark for virtually any Wicket page that can subsequently be shared with other users". Keep in mind that everything is happening inside our application, so no browser bookmarks/URLs involved.

I implemented this by serializing the current WebPage instance using
XStream and storing it as a BLOB in the database. Users then basically
share the DB primary key of this BLOB and whenever a user navigates to such a bookmark, I just de-serialize the WebPage instance and use "throw new
RestartResponseException( deserializedPage )" to render it.

To create a new bookmark, the user clicks on an AJAX link that does

         final AjaxLink<String> link = new AjaxLink<String>("link") {
             @Override
             public void onClick(AjaxRequestTarget target)
             {
                 final long bookmarkId = serializeCurrentPage();
                 ...
             }
        };

It seems that my approach is quite fragile for certain constructs, for
example when the page involves components that register AJAX behaviors /
resource listeners in general. Since Wicket itself successfully uses
serialization for page versioning, I suspect the issues I'm having are
caused by serializing the page instance while the request processing is
still in-transit.

Is there some way to safely hook into the processing of the current HTTP request and get hold of a serialized WebPage instance for my use-case ?

Thanks in advance,
Tobias
