| [glassfish-dev] Status of GlassFish 6.0.0-M1 |
|
Hi All, Just a status update on where we are based on GlassFish master today. Web Profile – starts up and can deploy applications using asadmin (deploying via web console doesn’t work). I have tested a smoke test application that uses Servlet, CDI, EJB, JPA , JTA all in the new namespace and it works correctly. Full Profile – starts up and displays the administration console but won’t deploy applications containing EJBs due to issues with CORBA.
We need a version of CORBA in the Jakarta namespace and Gaurav has made a PR. To release a new version of CORBA I’m waiting on a Jenkins CI issue
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=563774 I raised in on the 31st but there has been no activity so I will chase this.
We also need a new release of the JSON-B api and Yasson. There are a number of PRs and issues in JSON-B so if anybody is a committer on that project please merge Gaurav’s PRs and push out another RC. We have a commitment for a June milestone release with everything having to be ready by June 12th. My view is if we can fix the admin console deployment issues in Web Profile then we can just release Web Profile in the June milestone as that seems to work OK. Therefore please test Web Profile is working for you before making a PR. I
don’t want it broken before June 12th. Also hold off merging in any JDK 11 changes until after June 12th as I think that will destabilise master. JDK 11 support can be the next push after the milestone build.
A stretch goal will be to get the Jakarta CORBA version out on staging and also have Full Profile but that is somewhat out of our hands. Please try out Web Profile and if you have any PRs that make it more solid please get them in before 10th June as I will code freeze then for the 12th June release. Thoughts? Steve |
