I'm passing the session id via a PDF hidden field. It seems to work
ok. I use the RequestCycle in establishing my hooks to Hibernate on the
Wicket side, not so with my Pdf servlet. I'm not sure yet whether I'm
going to regret it.
I guess I was just looking for some tighter integration tips...my
servlet looks a lot like a Pinto in a parking lot full of BMWs next to
the Wicket stuff. I could probably extend one of the core wicket
classes instead of HttpServlet and arrive at the same place, though I'm
not sure it would be any more elegant.
Thanks for the help.

I've got some legacy PDFs laying around that utilize the HTTP submit
functionality available when using Acrobat fillable forms. The
servlet I have answering these Acrobat requests saves off the field
names and values submitted in a 3 column table (rec id, field name,
value). We change the forms and add fields pretty often. Later,
when a view of the filled form is requested, I fill it again with the
database values using iText (which is BEYOND cool) and stream it to
the browser. Simple enough.
I'm presently using this servlet's response object to just forward
calls on to a Wicket bookmarkable page...pretty loose integration.
I think this loose integration is the best you can do. I am using
quite a similar approach to integrate a legacy JSP based app and it
works very well.
Any suggestions as to how I might "Wickefy" my servlet such that I
can take advantage of things like Wicket session management an such
when handling requests submitted via Acrobat?
What are you missing? The bookmarkable Page should have access to the
Wicket session. Remember to forward the session id as well.
