h1. Apache Wicket 1.4 takes type safety to the next level

The Apache Wicket project is proud to announce the release of Apache Wicket 1.4. Apache Wicket is an open source, component oriented Java web application framework. With overwhelming support from the user community, this release marks a departure from the past where we leave Java 1.4 behind and we require Java 5 as the minimum JDK version. By moving to Java 5 as the required minimum platform, we were able to utilize Java 5 idioms and increase the type safety of our APIs. Using Java generics you can now write typesafe web applications and create typesafe, self documenting, reusable custom components.

h3. Download Apache Wicket 1.4

You can download the release here: [http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/wicket/1.4.0]

Or use this in your Maven pom's to upgrade to the new version:
{code:xml}<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.wicket</groupId>
  <artifactId>wicket</artifactId>
  <version>1.4.0</version>
</dependency>{code}
You will need to upgrade _all_ modules (i.e. wicket, wicket-extensions) to their 1.4 counterparts. It is not possible to mix Wicket 1.3 libraries with 1.4 libraries due to API changes.

h3. Most notable changes

From all the changes that went into this release, the following are the most important ones:

 * Generified IModel interface and implementations increases type safety in your Wicket applications
 * Component#getModel() and Component#setModel() have been renamed to getDefaultModel() and setDefaultModel() to better support generified models
 * The Spring modules have been merged (wicket-spring-annot is now obsolete, all you need is wicket-spring)
 * Many API's have been altered to better work with Java 5's idioms
 * Wicket jars are now packaged with metadata that makes them OSGI bundles

Apart from these changes, the release is mostly compatible with Wicket 1.3 and upgrading shouldn't take too long. Early adopters report about a days work to upgrade medium to large applications to Wicket 1.4. Read the [migration guide|http://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/migrate-14.html] to learn more about the changes in our APIs. To learn more about all the improvements and new features that went into this release, check the solved issue list in our [JIRA instance|https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=12313364].

h1. Apache Wicket 1.3.7 marks end of life for Wicket 1.3!
{font-size:small}July 30, 2009{font-size}

The Apache Wicket team is proud to present the release of Apache Wicket 1.3.7. This will be the last feature release for the 1.3.x branch.  Going forward, only security fixes will be released in the 1.3.x branch - meaning that 1.3.7 may be the last release in this branch.  All users are encouraged to upgrade to 1.4.0 as soon as possible.  As work begins on 1.5 in the near future, we will be supporting 1.4.x and 1.5.x.

h2. Apache Wicket

Apache Wicket is a component oriented Java web application framework. With
proper mark-up/logic separation, a POJO data model, and a refreshing lack of
XML, Apache Wicket makes developing web-apps simple and enjoyable again. Swap
the boilerplate, complex debugging and brittle code for powerful, reusable
components written with plain Java and HTML.

h2. Apache Wicket

Apache Wicket is a component oriented Java web application framework. With proper mark-up/logic separation, a POJO data model, and a refreshing lack of XML, Apache Wicket makes developing web-apps simple and enjoyable again. Swap the boilerplate, complex debugging and brittle code for powerful, reusable components written with plain Java and HTML.

You can find out more about Apache Wicket on our website:

* [http://wicket.apache.org]

h1. Apache Wicket 1.4-m3 with improved generics
{font-size:small}July 14, 2008{font-size}

Help the Apache Wicket team to determine the future of your Wicket based web application development. We have released our third and hopefully final milestone release of our Java 5 based web framework and are anxious to receive feedback on our use of generics.

This release is our final take on how to apply generics to our codebase with restraint. We hope to provide an elegant programming model without having to specify generic parameters everywhere, while still providing type safety when you need it.

A significant change from the earlier Wicket 1.4 milestone versions is that {{Component}} is no longer generified. This means that {{Component}} and most of its subclasses in Wicket do not take a class-level type parameter. Some {{Component}} subclasses remain generified, such as {{Link}}, {{Form}}, {{FormComponent}}, {{ListView}}, etc. You can read more details regarding these changes here:

* [Wicket 1.4 M3 News]
* [http://www.nabble.com/generics-to18083910.html#a18083910]

We feel that this might provide a good middle ground between being unable to add typing to IModel on one hand and a proliferation of unneeded typing information on modelless components on the other hand. Your feedback is appreciated!

[Download Wicket 1.4-m3|http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/wicket/1.4-m3] now and help us decide whether to tone down, remove or increase the application of Java 5 generics to our API. We have started the discussion on the user mailing list:

* [What is your take on generics with Wicket?|http://www.nabble.com/users%2C-please-give-us-your-opinion%3A-what-is-your-take-on-generics-with-Wicket-td17589984.html]
