Description

The command WebApplication.get().getServletContext.getInitParameter("param"); always returns null.

The init parameters can only be accessed with the WicketFilter class. A getter in the WebApplication class on the wicketFilter field could work. The previous command could then be replaced with:
WebApplication.get().getWicketFilter().getFilterConfig().getInitParameter("param");
