Agenda:
1. Test status (Michael) 1239 test cases; 2 errors, 4 failures; 4 of
57 configurations fail. Still an open issue on JDO-273 to update the
life cycle for serialization with an active transaction. AI Martin
fix the lifecycle tests and update the JIRA issues with the latest
results. JPOX has issues with lifecycle and newInstance
(PersistentInterface).
2. New tests status (Martin, Michael, Craig) Martin has one more test
case to write: PMF close. Craig is still working on the datastore
mapping for identity vs. sequence for primary key generation.
3. JSR 243 next steps (Craig) Assertions spreadsheet needs to be
updated to reflect the new tests. New and updated TCK tests need to
be finalized, and then we can cut the release branch. You can see the
latest changes at http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/db/jdo/trunk.
JPOX is preparing a 1.1.0-rc2 for early next week, with the final
1.1.0 release scheduled for next Friday. The final artifact-id is
expected to be jpox-1.1.0.
4. Other issues (any and all)
Craig has instructions on creating a release, and will add a wiki
page with the instructions in case anyone else has an itch to make a
release.
Need to resolve serialization of a detachable instance for durable
storage. AI Craig: propose a solution for the specification.
Action Items from weeks past:
[Mar 17 2006] AI Craig: review EG discussion on JDOHelper
constructor vs. newInstance(). Done. "There's no state in a JDOHelper
instance so there's really not much of a reason to use a singleton
pattern."
[Mar 17 2006] Remaining issue: datastore identity strategy is
currently defined as IDENTITY but some datastores don't support
IDENTITY columns. AI CraIg: propose a solution. In progress
[Mar 17 2006] For the persistence manager newInstance(Class) method,
what should the implementation do for abstract classes or interfaces
that contain abstract methods other than property accessors? Answer:
throw an exception. This might happen during enhancement. This needs
to be clarified in the spec. AI Michael: file a JIRA. AI Craig:
update the change log. Done.
[Feb 24 2006] One of the query tests fails. JDO-310 DERBY-39 for
details. AI Craig: Can we get some help on this from the Derby
team? Craig asked at the team meeting. AI Craig: follow up.
[Feb 3 2006] AI Michael W fix list of teardown classes in company
model reader. JDO-285. But this fix cannot be checked in until JPOX
is fixed.
[Jan 20 2005] AI Craig look at new life cycle tests to see if it
can fail at the end printing failure messages. AI Craig review the
spec updates to make sure the test is consistent. AI Craig:
resolve the test case and spec issues. Done. Martin will start
with the code that Michael W updated and will update the test case
not to fail on the first error.
[Nov 18 2005] AI: BEA to sign the donation paperwork for their test
suite. Review how to merge their test cases into JDO TCK. The
latest news in BEA is that BEA plans to donate their object
persistence engine to open source; it's not clear where they will
do this, perhaps in Apache as a sister project to Apache JDO.
BEA's OpenJPA is currently under consideration in the Apache
incubator, so the integration work might be facilitated once this
is resolved.
[Nov 4 2005] AI Martin: Update Martin's wiki with discusion of JDK
1.5 issues. in progress
[Sep 2 2005] AI: To recruit members, update the web site. Articles
on TheServerSide directing attention to the site. T-shirts, logo.
AI: Craig write a ServerSide article.
[July 29 2005] AI: Michelle Chapter 18 wiki needs to be updated to
include all JDO metadata elements and attributes.
