>                 Key: WICKET-6836
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-6836
>             Project: Wicket
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: wicket-ioc
>    Affects Versions: 9.0.0
>         Environment: Linux
>            Reporter: Gert-Jan Schouten
>            Priority: Minor
>
> When trying to run Wicket 9.0.0 under Java 15, it fails with an "Unsupported class file major version 59" error from CGLib.
> [This issue|https://github.com/cglib/cglib/issues/74] suggests that CGLib is not actively maintained anymore. The Maven Central hasn't seen a new version since August 2019.
> To make sure Wicket keeps running on the latest Java version, a migration to ByteBuddy and/or Javassist is recommended.
> This is especially relevant since Oracle now only supports the latest version of OpenJDK, requiring OpenJDK users to switch to the latest version every 6 months.
