The Apache Wicket PMC is proud to announce Apache Wicket 6.6.0!
This release marks the sixth minor release of Wicket 6. Starting with Wicket 6 we use semantic versioning for the future development of Wicket, and as such no API breaks are present in this release compared to 6.0.0.
New and noteworthy
wicket:for attribute for html label tags
While already available for some time, the wicket-1.5.xsd now contains
a valid definition for the wicket:for attribute such that it
Can be used in HTML
<label>element to automatically link it to a form element. The value of this attribute must have the same value of the form component’s wicket:id attribute.
So you can use the following markup:
Added a callback for an invalidated session
Session is extended with a life cycle event called onInvalidate().
This method is executed when the user session is invalidated either
by explicit call to org.apache.wicket.Session#invalidate() or due
to HttpSession expiration.
In case of session expiration this method is called in a non-worker
thread, i.e. there are no thread locals exported for the Application,
RequestCycle and Session. The Session is the current instance. The
Application can be found by using Application#get(String). There is
no way to get a reference to a RequestCycle.
