What methods are you referring to? I can't find these two in Wicket. >Hibernate conventions discourage the use of long-term sessions so this is >actually what you should be doing. Actually the Hibernate guys are recommending the use of 'application transactions', i.e. long-term sessions that are only disconnected while waiting for new user input. >Opening a new Session is dirt cheap. Yes, a session is cheap, but IMHO working with new sessions is not easy. Attaching/Detaching objects (update, lock, ...) is difficult and can completely be spared with disconnected sessions.
