If anyone is interested, here's how I solved the problem of building a Wicket
1.3-compatible JAR and 1.4-compatible JAR from the same codebase.
First I tweaked my Wicket code so that it could compile under 1.3 and 1.4.
Basically, I started with 1.4 code, then removed generics, and avoided using
get/setDefaultModel.
Then I added build profiles to my POM (see below). I can now use the build
profiles to compile and deploy JARs for both 1.3 and 1.4, using maven's
<classifier> to distinguish the two JARs.
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>wicket14</id>
<activation>
<activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
</activation>
<properties>
<wicket.version>1.4.3</wicket.version>
</properties>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<classifier>wicket14</classifier>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>wicket13</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>wicket13</name>
</property>
</activation>
<properties>
<wicket.version>1.3.6</wicket.version>
</properties>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<classifier>wicket13</classifier>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
</profiles>
