Just read the article - Status of wicket-cdi Module at https://www.42lines.net/2012/09/11/status-of-wicket-cdi-module/.
Wonder if wicket-cdi is part of Wicket 6.1 release and upwards. I tried a simple Wicket 6.3 application running in TomEE, but could not get the CDI injection to work. These are the steps I used: 1. Create a Wicket project with Maven (according to http://wicket.apache.org/start/quickstart.html) mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.wicket -DarchetypeArtifactId=wicket-archetype-quickstart -DarchetypeVersion=6.3.0 -DgroupId=com.mycompany -DartifactId=myproject -DarchetypeRepository= https://repository.apache.org/ -DinteractiveMode=false 2. Generate the eclipse configuration files mvn eclipse:eclipse -Dwtpversion=2.0 (Note: Following steps are based on the tutorial on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lr8pxEACVRI) 3. In folder src/main/webapp/WEB-INF, create file beans.xml (Also in folder src/main/webapp/META-INF, create file beans.xml, according to the explanation for this example: http://tomee.apache.org/examples-trunk/cdi-basic/README.html, and also src/main/resources/META-INF/beans.xml just in case) 4. Create a POJO public class Faculty { private List<String> facultyMembers; private String facultyName; @PostConstruct public void initialize() { this.facultyMembers = new ArrayList<String>(); facultyMembers.add("Ian Schultz"); facultyMembers.add("Diane Reyes"); facultyName = "Computer Science"; } public List<String> getFacultyMembers() { return facultyMembers; } public String getFacultyName() { return facultyName; } } 5. Inject the POJO in HomePage.java and display it. public class HomePage extends WebPage { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; @Inject private Faculty faculty; public HomePage(final PageParameters parameters) { super(parameters); if (faculty != null) { add(new Label("cdi", faculty.getFacultyName())); } else { add(new Label("cdi", "Not working!")); } } } Note, class HomePage is the class for the Wicket homepage, as specified below: public class WicketApplication extends WebApplication { /** * @see org.apache.wicket.Application#getHomePage() */ @Override public Class<? extends WebPage> getHomePage() { return HomePage.class; } } These are the steps I tried, but when running, "Not working!" is displayed on the home page. I debugged it and confirmed that faculty is null, which means not injected. Many thanks for your kind help! Yuci
