Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] Adding generics to API for Jakarta EE 9?
Hi,

Unfortunately the API is still physically present in the Mojarra project. The separate Faces-API project does a trick, where it takes the full build Mojarra jar and extracts the API from it. No, nobody is proud on that :(

This method has been used for many years now, so it's not something new after the transfer. Hopefully we have enough resources this year to finally change this.

Kind regards,
Arjan

I'll let the JSF experts discuss the merits of that issue.  But, shouldn't that issue be against the faces-api repositoryinstead of the implementation (mojarra)?

@arjan
Could we then also consider this: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/mojarra/issues/4568

I wasn't being for or against just pointing out process as I'm not familiar with the suggested change. If people think it is in scope then go for it.

I thought we had discussed the introduction of generics into the signatures as an "okay" small change.  I looked through our notes and can't find a record of this, so we must have just discussed it verbally.

Since the addition of missing generics in the signature would be a binary compatible change, why wouldn't or couldn't we allow this?  As Arjan points out, the javax->jakarta change already makes it source incompatible, so we're not introducing anything that would require additional work.  And, the use of generics is a good thing that helps with strong type checking.  Is there a technical reason why we couldn't allow this type of change in Jakarta EE 9 without requiring separate release plans?

Hi,

I was thinking to add missing generics to the Jakarta Authentication API for Jakarta EE 9. This is a binary compatible change. Jakarta _expression_ has done this too. Obviously the TCK signature file needs to be adjusted for this, but it has to be adjusted anyway for the javax -> jakarta change.

Thoughts?

Kind regards,
Arjan Tijms
