What is new in Release 7.0-1
This chapter lists new release changes:
- Session Interface Extended - We've extended 'Session' interface with "setHttpSession()" method in order to enable complete (including SessionData) session serialization for 'Container Adapter Session Manager' implementation group.
What is new in Release 7.0-beta1
This chapter lists new release changes:
- JNDIAdapter (bug fix) - resolved problem with null JNDI context element registered.
- MBean Implementation - Multi Join Qerry Cache administration and monitoring enabled.
- Configuration Files - Changed default configuration file initialization option (ConfFileClass) for "HttpPresentationServlet" (from "com.lutris.util.ConfigFile" to "org.enhydra.util.XMLConfigFile"). We have also introduced the default value for the other initialization parameter ("ConfFile" - path to configuration file) - "web.xml".
This way, we have simplified required Enhydra servlet ("HttpPresentationServlet") "web.xml" definition!
- XMLC maintenance - version 2.2.9 is included in this release.
What is new in Release 6.6-1
This chapter lists new release changes:
- Revised PO caching procedures.
- Axis request recognition adapted.
- Improved existing ('web.xml' defined) configuration parameter initialization (definition support). 'Config' object now supports diferent configuration parameter types (not only 'java.lang.String').
- Implemented encoding support for MIME header initialization.
- XMLC maintenance - version 2.2.8.1 is included in this release.
- Axis maintenance - version 1.2.1 is included in this release.
What is new in Release 6.5-1
This chapter lists new release changes:
- 'SessionManager' implementation changed:
- 'ContainerAdapterSession', 'ContainerAdapterSessionManager'
and 'JmxContainerAdapterSessionManager'- implementations
revized.
- 'TomcatContainerAdapterSessionManager' - new
implementation included. This 'SessionManager'
implementation offers better Tomcat Session Manager
wrapping.
What is new in Release 6.4-1
This chapter lists new release changes:
- Changed initialization of 'MultiserverClassloader' for
Enhydra Manager ('HttpPresentationServlet' implementation).
- Application MBean:
- Adapted application MBean naming (name <-> type).
- Changed Application Context parameter (Context MBean initialization).
- Changed 'getAppInfo()' method implementation for
base EAF MBean implementation - calls 'toHtml()'
application method if one exists.
- Resolved problems with PO resources caching (e.g. applet
loading).
- Resolved problem with binaries (loaded by 'MultiClassLoader')
locking after 'HttpPresentationServlet.destroy()' method call.
- Fixed problem with multiple EAF-AxisService instances
deployed (in case o shared EAF binaries) - 'AxisService'
was "static" attribute of 'HttpPresentationServlet'. That cased
successful initialization of first EAF-Axis service but disabled
initialization of others (if any) 'EAF-AxisService' instances
defined.
What is new in Release 6.3-1
This chapter lists new release changes:
- Implemented new 'StandarApplication' MBean logic. All
application MBeans extend basic (abstract) 'org.enhydra.util.EafConfigMBean'
implementation which implements basic set of Dynamic MBean ->
Application Config object operations.
Every application on its startup registers next set of Dynamic
MBean's:
- Context - gives basic information about application context
(full application name, context name an absolute context path),
- SessionManager - enables basic 'SessionManager'
administration (one for every application),
- PresentationManager - enables basic 'PresentationManager'
administration (one for every application),
- DatabaseManager - enables basic 'DatabaseManager'
administration (one for every application - if one is
registered),
- Database-<Database Name> - (one for every logical database
registered to application 'DatabaseManager'),
- Database.Table-<Database Name>.<Table Name> - (one for every
table found),
- ApplicationConfig - administration of the rest (not
SessionManager, PresentationManager or DatabaseManager) of
configuration parameters (one for every application).
- Changed creation of session key for new session in 'StandardSessionManager' in case of director request (support for new director implementation).
- Changed cookie creation in cases when new session is created (no more slash at the end of the path parameter in cookie).
- 'MonologFileLogger' (an extension of a Logger that channels
the logging trough Monolog instead of Tomcat's default 'FileLogger')
renamed to 'TomcatMonologFileLogger' - naming issue only (makes
logger nature more obvious).
- JAVA 1.5 support.
- Included new EAF tool (with purpose to enable JAVA 1.5
support): 'Crimson' -
Java XML
parser.
What is new in Release 6.2-2
This chapter lists new release changes:
- EAF logging configuration process adapted to accept relative
(not only absolute) path to Log4j or Monolog configuration file
('Log4j' or 'Monolog' parameters defined in application configuration
file).
- Implemented 'StandardApplication' session initialization before
first application request redirection.
- Removed existing SessionManager parameter - 'SessionEncodeRandomParameter'
(Peter Stehlik patch).
- Implemented new SessionManager parameter - 'SessionEncodeFirsUrl'.
Parameter indicates whether to (session) encode default application
url ('Application.DefaultUrl' parameter in application configuration
file) or not. This is optional parameter with default value
set to false.
NOTE: This parameter is closely connected to 'SessionEncodeUrlState'
(Always, Auto (default) and Never) parameter. If 'SessionEncodeUrlState'
value is set to 'Always' then 'SessionEncodeFirsUrl' parameter
value will be forced to true and if 'SessionEncodeUrlState'
value is set to 'Never' 'SessionEncodeFirsUrl' parameter value
will be forced to false.
Parameter helps to preserve initial application session during
first request redirection when the URL based session tracking
is used (i.e. either cookies are disabled or the "SessionEncodeUrlState"
is set to "Always" in the application configuration file)
- bug reported by Peter Stehlik.
- XMLC maintenance - version 2.2.6 is included in this release.
IMPORTANT NOTE: New XMLC (version 2.2.6) requires
that DOM3 interfaces are supplied at both buildtime and runtime
(XMLC's compatibility for running under JDK1.4.x). Because
of that we had to include additional DOM Level 3 API binary
(dom3-xml-apis.jar: acquired from last dom3 Xerces release
- version 2.6.2).
- Xerces binaries now included as independent tool (till now
they have bin a part of ANT's binary distribution).
Xerces binaries included:
- xercesImpl.jar - Xerces 2.6.2
- xml-apis.jar - Xerces 2.6.2
- dom3-xml-apis.jar) - DOM3 Xerces 2.6.2-beta2
- Included license and version files for all used tools.
- Included patch - adapted 'StandardSessionManager.deleteSession(sessionKey
)' method to allow deletion of passive (not just active) sessions.
