Getting Wicket

There are a couple of things to consider when downloading Wicket for your project. Do you use Maven? Do you need to run on Java 1.4?

Here's a matrix for picking the right Wicket version:

Wicket versions

Here's a small description of the different Wicket releases. Our current stable release is Wicket 1.2.5, which is released outside the Apache Software Foundation. Development within the Apache Software Foundation is ongoing on Wicket 1.3. We are currently stabilizing Wicket 1.3. This will be the last JDK 1.4 compatible release. The next version will require JDK 1.5.

Wicket 1.2.5

Wicket 1.2.5 is our stable release and is available from SourceForge.net and through the Maven central repository. It is the release version of the maintenance branch wicket-1.2.x. This is often referred to as wicket-1.2.x

This version of Wicket requires JDK 1.4 or newer.

The Wicket 1.2.x releases are not endorsed by, approved by, nor affiliated with the Apache Software Foundation in any way.

Information on Wicket 1.2.5 / 1.2.x

Maven pom dependency

Add the following snippet to your Maven project descriptor (pom.xml) to use Wicket 1.2.5.

    <groupId>wicket</groupId>
    <artifactId>wicket</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.5</version>
</dependency>

Add the following snippet to your Maven project descriptor (pom.xml) to use the latest development version from the Wicket 1.2.x branch (stable).

<dependency>
    <groupId>wicket</groupId>
    <artifactId>wicket</artifactId>
    <version>1.2-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

Wicket 1.3 / 1.x

Wicket 1.3 is currently under development at the Apache Software Foundation, while inside the Incubator. When projects first move to Apache, they are housed at the Apache Incubator. The Incubator helps incoming projects migrate to the vibrant Apache community.

The Wicket team considers Wicket 1.3 to be of beta quality. We don't expect any big API changes and are currently working to release our first beta.

Currently there is no official release available for Wicket 1.3. The only way to get to the code is to use our development snapshot releases, or build it yourself from subversion.

You can see the status of Wicket's incubation process on this page.
