-Apache CXF 2.4.1 Release Notes
+Apache CXF 2.5.0 Release Notes
1. Overview
-The 2.4.x versions of Apache CXF are significant new versions of CXF
+The 2.5.x versions of Apache CXF are significant new versions of CXF
that provides several new features and enhancements.
New features include:
-* Log Browser Console - see the logbrowser sample for an example
-* Transformation feature provides for a fast and effective way to transform
inbound
- and/or outbound XML messages, please see the TransformationFeature page for
more
- information.
-* JIBX databinding
-* Faster startup and reduced spring configuration. The Spring support has been
redone
- to be based on the ExtensionManagerBus. This results in much faster startup.
It also
- means that all of the imports of META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-*.xml are no
longer
- needed and are deprecated. Additionaly, all features are now available when
- using the ExtensionManager Bus instead of being forced to use Spring.
-* WSS4J has been updated from 1.5.x to 1.6. See
http://ws.apache.org/wss4j/wss4j16.html
- for the list of new features and upgrade notes for Apache WSS4J 1.6. Some
notable new
- features for CXF users include:
- * SAML2 support: WSS4J 1.6 includes full support for creating,
manipulating and
- parsing SAML2 assertions, via the Opensaml2 library. See
-
http://coheigea.blogspot.com/2011/02/support-for-saml2-assertions-in-wss4j.html
- for more information.
- * Performance work: A general code-rewrite has been done with a focus on
improving
- performance.
- * Support for Crypto trust-stores: WSS4J 1.6 separates the concept of
keystore and
- truststores. See
http://coheigea.blogspot.com/2011/01/wss4j-16-crypto-property-change.html
- for more information.
- * WS-SecurityPolicy support for SAML tokens.
- * Initial OSGi Blueprint support for JAX-WS and JAX-RS
- * A simple framework for building an STS was added to CXF's WS-Security
module. See the
- sts_issue_operation sample to see this being used to generate SAML tokens
based on X509
- certs used for the authentication.
+ * New enterprise ready Security Token Service (see sts sample)
+ * New WS-Notification service (see ws_notification sample)
+ * Initial WS-MedadataExchange support
+ * WS-RM 1.1 support
+ * Initial OAuth support for JAX-RS (see oauth sample)
+ * New karaf command
+ * Enhanced OSGi support include workqueue and JMX configurations
Users are encourage to review the migration guide at:
-http://cxf.apache.org/docs/24-migration-guide.html
-for further information and requirements for upgrading to 2.4.0. In
particular, the upgrades
-to WSS4J and Neethi will require some migration work if you use the WSS4J
API's directly or
-have created your own Policy objects or builders. Additionally, XmlSchema
was update to 2.0
-so any custom Aegis types may need to be updated.
-
-
-2.4.1 fixes over 100 JIRA issues reported by users and the community.
