GSIP 51 - Upgrade to Wicket 1.4
Overview
Upgrading the GeoServer UI to Wicket 1.4.
Proposed By
Assigned to Release
2.1-beta2
State
Under Discussion, In Progress, Completed, Rejected, Deferred
Motivation
Currently GeoServer sits on the Wicket 1.3 stream. The current stable wicket version is 1.4 and soon to be 1.5. Most new extensions that are available are not wicket 1.3 compatible.
Proposal
The details of the switch over were described in a recent email to the developer list. The current patch is found here
Feedback
Backwards Compatibility
Wicket 1.4 will undoubtedly break any code written against wicket 1.3. The changes are mechanical and described in the wicket migration guide.
