-------------------------------------

             Summary: Add Google Guava dependency.
                 Key: WICKET-5641
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-5641
             Project: Wicket
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Garret Wilson
            Priority: Minor


The Google [Guava library|https://code.google.com/p/guava-libraries/] has grown popular over the last few years. Besides providing common day-to-day boilerplate such as {{Preconditions}} and comparator helpers such as {{Ordering}}, it also provides a diverse set (pun unintended) of tested useful collections such as {{Multimaps}}.

Pulling in a new significantly-sized dependency would be advised only if it is useful. This JIRA is to serve as a list of places in Wicket where the Guava library would prove beneficial, as well as to provide a forum for developer comment on the desirability of adding such a dependency.
