Hi everyone,
Pushing this out on the mailing lists to make sure everyone gets the
message. Please promote by Tweet, Google+, Facebook and any other social
media you use. In fact, please get back to me with suggestions on any
other promotion channels you think we should be using to reach out on?
After the huge buzz getting version 1.7.0 off the press it is time to
get back to the day to day. As promised we are committed to providing
the best for our community, and so without further a do here is TomEE
1.7.1 - This is a maintenance release that fixes some minor issues and a
few tweaks (We understand it is not so minor if you are waiting for it,
so thanks for your patience). This version is still shipped upon Apache
Tomcat 7.0.55
Please note that the TomEE 1.7.1 drop in WAR file will not work on
Apache Tomcat 8. If you are interested in a Tomcat 8.x version then
please feel free to check out and contribute to the developer branch
<http://tomee.apache.org/contribute.html> - We are always interested in
any help from the community that we can get.
The Apache TomEE 1.7.1 release files can be downloaded from here:
http://tomee.apache.org/downloads.html
Note: Issue TOMEE-1339
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-1339> introduced a default
(but configurable) check for a static /index.html/ file when an empty
JAX-RS resource URL is specified by a client. You can use this file to
return a descriptive response to the client for example. Make sure that
this optional file does not contain sensitive information when made
available. Currently it is not a JSP and it is not parsed in any way by
the Servlet container - This may change in the next version.
Simply update your existing Maven JavaEE-API, OpenEJB and or TomEE
pom.xml entries to point to the latest versions.
Andy.
