The build will be ready for release when test failures are low, once we reach that milestone, we can perform rapid iterative releases.

The recent fix to JERI appears to have increased stability, at least locally, although this isn't showing through on Jenkins yet.

You could say I took some time out, to do something easy, at least compared to the hair pulling concurrency bugs and race conditions I've been focused on.

Cheers,

Peter.

This is all good, but I would personally be interested in getting to a
release based on the QA branch with less remaining development.  I would
suggest rapid iterations for releases with incremental change until a QA
branch based release is stable.

Jini has a small but loyal user base in financial services.

Looks like River is building on J9, real time java and IIOP seems to be
working too.

I'm not expecting many tests to pass at this stage, since many
permissions will be different, at least it's all compilling now.

Cheers,

Peter.

Wow Peter, that sounds great! I imagine that a significant percentage of
the (rather small) River user base might operate in environments requiring
some of these other Java VMs with particular qualities around real-time
processing, etc.

Presently we are prevented from compilling and running on J9, JRockit
or other Java VM's.

I've been able to modify Phoenix to use reflection at runtime to call
Sun private implementations, meaning that Phoenix is strictly a Sun JVM
only component, but would no longer prevent compilling and testing on other
architectures.

There is one test that, com.sun.jini.test.impl.reggie.MultiHomedClientTest
that uses the following internal sun API:

sun.net.spi.nameservice.NameService;
sun.net.spi.nameservice.NameServiceDescriptor;

If I was to change this test and associated classes to .txt extensions,
we could run these manually on Sun's JVM, while allowing River to build on
other architectures.

Regards,

Peter.
