Announcing Tapestry 5.3.3

The Tapestry Team is very proud to announce the availability of Apache Tapestry 5.3.3.

Tapestry is primarily available for download via Maven, from the Maven central repository:

Maven Dependency
 
<dependency> 
  <groupId>org.apache.tapestry</groupId> 
  <artifactId>tapestry-core</artifactId> 
  <version>5.3.3</version> 
</dependency> 

You can also download the binary, source, or JavaDoc archives.

Tapestry 5.3.3 is the latest maintenance release from the stable 5.3 release branch. Full details are in the release notes, but here's a few highlights:

  • Fixed a significant problem with field access in component subclasses
  • A number of minor annoyances fixed
  • A pre-compiled binaries ZIP archive is now available, in addition to sources and JavaDoc ZIP archives

As usual for each Tapestry 5 release we've made great efforts to ensure an easy upgrade path; but be sure to read the upgrade notes carefully as some interfaces and methods that were deprecated in earlier major releases may have been removed: you should recompile and retest your application after upgrading your dependency. If you still have problems, use the Tapestry user mailing list to get support.
