How to Use Wicket With JEE6

Since JEE6 we no longer need a deployment descriptor (web.xml), so how do we declare the necessary configurations of Wicket?

Solution: Create an empty class that inherits from WicketFilter and annotated with the necessary config.

import javax.servlet.annotation.WebFilter;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebInitParam;
import org.apache.wicket.protocol.http.WicketFilter;


@WebFilter(value = "/*",
           initParams = { @WebInitParam(name = "applicationClassName", value = "tn.blog.dev.MyApplication")
                          , @WebInitParam(name="wicket.configuration", value="deployment")})
public class MyFilter extends WicketFilter{

}

Note:You can add as many prameters as you want.
