It looks like we have the makings of the M2 milestone that has been
talked about. Dave and Dain made a huge chunk of code available so
that one can deploy and use (in limited ways) EJB 3.0. Very
impressed gents, kudos to the two of you.
As we did for M1 I'd like to go ahead and branch tomorrow afternoon
so we can tidy this release up without disrupting the continuous
development on trunk. I'll pull in fixes to address the release as
appropriate so that the server runs and we can show users a peek at a
semi-stable environment.
Remember this is a milestone and not a general release in terms of it
is a view of the work in progress so fit and finish is coming :)
Here are the major items I know about and limitations. Please
comment where I'm in a ditch or on another planet.
EJB 3.0
- Ability to deploy beans
- Dependency injection still not functional but external plans can be
used.
- WebServices not plugged in yet.
- Simple apps are possible
- No guarantees on old EJB 2.1 apps at this point and for CMP will
definitely require some refactoring for deployment.
POJO WebServices available
The remainder of the stack as previously delivered is available as well.
JSF is currently broken (was working in M1)
Other stuff in terms of functionality and limitations?
Feedback welcome :)
Excellent work all.
