JGroups 3.x hasn't been updated in some time now. The last release was
in April 2020 almost 2 years ago. Lots of protocols have been updated
and added and users are wanting to use them. There is also increasing
concern about using older components triggered mainly by other
recently-discovered high-profile vulnerabilities in the wider Open
Source Java community.
This commit bumps JGroups up to the latest release - 5.2.0.Final.
However, there is a cost associated with upgrading.
The old-style properties configuration is no longer supported. I think
it's unlikely that end-users are leveraging this because it is not
exposed via broker.xml. The JGroups XML configuration has been around
for a long time, is widely adopted, and is still supported. I expect
most (if not all) users are using this. However, a handful of tests
needed to be updated and/or removed to deal with this absence.
Some protocols and/or protocol properties are no longer supported. This
means that users may have to change their JGroups stack configurations
when they upgrade. For example, our own clustered-jgroups example had to
be updated or it wouldn't run properly.
Back in version 2.17.0 we began to provide Maven artifacts for Jakarta
Messaging client resources. This commit expands that support in the
following ways:
- Distribute a Jakarta Messaging 3.0 client with the broker (in the
'lib/client' directory alongside the JMS client.
- Update documentation.
- Add example using the Jakarta Messaging client.
- Update Artemis CLI to use core instead of JMS as it was causing
conflicts with the new Jarkarta Messaging client.
- Add example to build Jarkarta Messaging version of the JCA RA for
deployment into Jakarta EE 9 application servers.
- Split protocols into individual chapters
- Reorganize summary to flow more logically
- Fill in missing parameters in configuration index
- Normalize spaces for ordered and unordered lists
- Re-wrap lots of text for readability
- Fix incorrect XML snippets
- Normalize table formatting
- Improve internal links with anchors
- Update content to reflect new address model
- Resized architecture images to avoid excessive white-space
- Update some JavaDoc
- Update some schema elements
- Disambiguate AIO & ASYNCIO where necessary
- Use URIs instead of Objects in code examples
Add topic and queue cache maps in Session.
Add configuration to use cache or not with defaulting to false, which keeps existing behaviour as the default.
I also did some review of the huge table we have,
removed a few columns such as the datatype and
embedded the default on the description. Just trying to make easier to render and read
Also a few fixes on the doc context such as adding links and improving configuration-index
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACTIVEMQ6-7
Connection Factory is now externalizable and is now serialized as a string that represents a URI. There are schemas for every possible type for connection factory and server locator.
The client JNDI representation of factories has also been changed to be consistent with this.
