Just curious what experiences people had with serialization and generics, never having played there myself...

Please use this discussion thread for voicing your opinion or asking questions. This makes counting the votes much easier. The discussion on our development list makes it clear that a lot of folks are anxious for generified models. Most users if not all wish us to release a quick release which is 1.3 + generics. The consequence is that the core team will stop to support 1.3, and that everybody that wishes updates will have to migrate to 1.4, and upgrade to Java 5. Why should we keep supporting 1.3 and JDK 1.4? Why only a generified release, and not a full release with more Java5 conversions?

i had read that thread, but i guess i did not realize they do not want a milestone release on production. personally i have no problem with that. Thanks for clearing that up.

Re: [discuss] Release 1.4 with only generics and stop support for 1.3
If you read the planning thread, you see that a lot of folks want to move to the generified Wicket version and don't want to wait 6-8 months to deploy on their production boxes.

Re: [discuss] Release 1.4 with only generics and stop support for 1.3
Why does a quick release imply dropping 1.3? IMO if we do a 1.4m1 release and then "slowly" add additional stuff to 1.4 we could continue to support 1.3. Not that i need 1.3 but it just seems odd to throw away 1.3 so quickly after we released it. AFAIK we have the following branches: 1.2.x : critical bugs only? 1.3.x: current 2.x: dead 1.4.x: future so by doing a quick release of 1.4-m1 we would have to support 1.3 and 1.4 but we only actively need to develop 1.4. please correct me if i am wrong.

Re: [discuss] Release 1.4 with only generics and stop support for 1.3
Hmm... bummer. :-) How hard can it be to throw out all references to generics and insert the casts where necessary? :-) But you're right... at least in eclipse it complains if you put the source compliance level higher than the class file compliance level...

Re: [discuss] Release 1.4 with only generics and stop support for 1.3
Hi, I was wondering to what extent it is possible to have generics added to 1.3 but have it compile to 1.4 if necessary? Isn't that a just a question of not using other Java 1.5 constructs such as enums and new JDK classes? Wouldn't that solve most people's problems that need to stick to Java 1.4?
