I have uploaded a new version (the third) of the Wicket 1.3.0-beta3
release to my
people.apache.org account. Updates are:
Release 3 (current):
- incorporated modification watcher fix
(http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revrevision=568603)
Release 2:
- updated copyright info in the notice.txt file (Frank)
- archetype source is now included in the distribution, so it builds (Frank)
Please look carefully at this release. I know a lot has changed on
trunk since the code was copied to build beta 3, but I think it is
worth the effort to release it anyway (given the 100+ fixes in it).
You can download the release here:
http://people.apache.org/~dashorst/releases/apache-wicket-1.3.0-beta3/dist
and point your maven 2 here:

[ ] yes release this third version of 1.3.0-beta3 to our community

The release notes (README) for this release:
Apache Wicket 1.3
=
This is the readme file for the Apache Wicket project.
Apache Wicket is an open source, java, component based, 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.
Apache Wicket can be found at: http://wicket.apache.org and is licensed under
the Apache Software Foundation license, version 2.0.

License
---
Wicket is distributed under the terms of the Apache Software Foundation
license, version 2.0. The text is included in the file LICENSE.txt in the root
of the project.
Java/Application server requirements
Wicket requires at least Java 1.4. The application server for running your web
application should adhere to the servlet specification version 2.3 or newer.
Getting started
---
The Wicket project has several projects where you can learn from, and get
started quickly:
- wicket-examples:
shows all components in short usage examples, also available live on:
http://www.wicketstuff.org/wicket13
- wicket-quickstart:
provides a skeleton project for use in NetBeans, Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA
and other major IDE's, without having to configure anything yourself. You
can copy'n'paste the examples from the website into your pages and see
them running on your own box.
- qwicket (http://www.antwerkz.com/qwicket):
Qwicket is a quickstart application for the wicket framework. Its intent
is to provide a rapid method for creating a new wicket project with the
basic infrastructure in place so that you can quickly get to the meat of
your application rather than mucking with the plumbing of a wicket
application. Currently, the system only supports spring and hibernate
built with ant.
- AppFuse light - Wicket edition (https://appfuse-light.dev.java.net/)
AppFuse Light is a can all do it all quickstart setup for almost all
possible permutations for building Java web applications and ORM
technologies. It features over 60 downloads and combines each available
web application framework with Hibernate, iBatis, JDO (JPOX), OJB and
Spring JDBC.
Building Wicket from source
---
The Wicket distribution contains the final Wicket jar. You can use this
directly in your applications. The Wicket project also uploads the source-jars
and JavaDoc jars together with the final jar to the Maven repository used by
the Maven build tool. So there is actually no specific need to build Wicket
yourself from the distribution.
Building using maven 2, change the working directory to src and either do:
- mvn package
creates wicket-x.y.z.jar in target/ subdirectory.
- mvn install
creates wicket-x.y.z.jar in target/ subdirectory and installs the file
into your local repository for use in other projects.
