Ok
I am done with teh commits, doing a clean checkout and making sure it all
works.
If you want to do something fun with this download and build and go under
/lib/deploy and touch email-service.xml and the connectors.jsr. Basically
these are independent modules that can cycle. It is the stuff that jason
was talking about some time ago.
The architecture is fully "microkernel" oriented and by that we mean that
JBoss can keep on running and you can bring services up and down along with
their classes. Right now the simplest support for classes cycling is the
jsr stuff that we would copy over to do like the applications. The key
ideas are in system/ the rest is candy.
Kudos to Dr Jung for his solid work and implementation of the December
research. I really learned a lot from his work. Only thing I didn't reuse
there was the "scope" other than that it was all grade A beef.
Another thing that is pretty cool with it you can go and install the
directory layout on a webserver adn then just install the binary locally
(what is under and bin/ lib/ (no lib/ext) and then type sh
run.sh --net-install http://yourserver/ and JBoss will pull itself down from
the distant server. Conf and classes. You feed xml snippets that tell what
to pull down.
Works well pretty funky when it passes the testbeantest suite in http mode,
gets pretty heady... it has got a funky aetheral feel to it. You can either
spend 5 days installing a big server or you can let it run off our webserver
(like webstart). We will really make serious headways in the farms
installation. It will multiply well... like rabbits...
and that is about it. I am quite proud of this bit of work. what I am
proudest of is the fact that it was "pure research" in December, where I
swore we would *never* use it in our codebase and 8 month later it is the
starting point of our architecture.. sometimes fate smacks you until you go
"duh"... anyway, it is about as deep as I want to go.
I will try to document this more in the coming weeks right now the code is
there.
enjoy, it is a starting point, make it yours and this will be the server to
beat.
