Hi Matej, I guess i've not been as clear as i should have ;) What I meant is that i THOUGHT the class instance was not referenced in the page :D
Whereas in fact, the non serializable class instance was referenced indirectly by my wicket page... I had something like : WicketPage -> Instance of class A -> instance of class B -> instance of class C (which was not serializable) -> instances of other classes (all serializable) The non serializable C Class contained only simple Serializable attribute, but was not tagged as Serializable. But the serialization mechanism never complained, and after deserialization, I had the object graph below : WicketPage -> Instance of class A -> instance of class B -> instance of class C but the instance of class C had all of its attributes set to null. And as I've said in this thread, none of the attributes of class C are marked as transient. As soon as i added the Serializable interface to the C class, all my troubles were gone... Cheers, Antoine.
