Upgrade to Lift 2.3 version
---------------------------
Key: ESME-341
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ESME-341
Project: Enterprise Social Messaging Environment (ESME)
Issue Type: Task
Components: Server
Affects Versions: 1.3
Reporter: Vladimir Ivanov
Assignee: Vladimir Ivanov
Fix For: 1.3
I think it's time to carefully consider issues related to possible upgrade to
Lift 2.3 version. RC1 has been already released. Right now it implies only
minor change in code: due to JsExp is no longer subclass of
scala.xml.SpecialNode, implicit converson from Long to JsExp is not applicable
for scala.xml.UnprefixedAttribute in Mailbox.scala. For more info see:
http://groups.google.com/group/liftweb/browse_thread/thread/602de79127070b90 .
It's easy to fix with toString call. More serious change relates to Extended
Session (it is used to set a cookie and store userId into DB for subsequent
automatic login). Currently used technique to bind Extended Session via
S.addAround() call is not valid anymore and fails at runtime, see:
http://groups.google.com/group/liftweb/browse_thread/thread/fa773ef9a5db50ca .
It's neccessary to wait until new mechanism: LiftRules.earlyInStateful is
introduced.
