Hello everyone, I'd like to ask some questions about the coming jetty releases and the integration in Eclipse.
Currently we use Eclipse Helios/Indigo with Jetty 6.x as embedded OSGI servlet container. The webservices are rather simple, no session tracking or other fancy stuff - but it's a mission critical component connecting our servers with thin clients (written in java). Since Jetty 6 is rather aged now, we ponder on updating to a newer version. As far as I could research we have two options: 1. Use Jetty 7 and patch org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty, as I found in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=309529. 2. Wait for Eclipse Juno + Jetty 8 and accept a major platform update. (Eclipse 4.x instead of 3.x) What I would like to know is: - Will Eclipse Juno contain jetty 8 and if so, which version? (Is it reasonable to ask here if the Juno release plan is reliable?) We might prefer a stable release with integration done by experts, but we are would like to upgrade jetty soon and not only eventually. - Are there plans to integrate jetty 7/8 into eventually upcoming eclipse releases in the 3.x family? A minor version upgrade is probably easier to integrate in our PDE build/release process. - Does someone have working experience with Jetty 7 and patched org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty bundle? Are there any known problems or can you think of any if we patch *.http.jetty for J7? Thank you for your time. Also, if you have suggestions, ideas or objections about the described scenario, I would very much like to hear them. -- Kind regards, Adalbert Prokop _______________________________________________ jetty-users mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/jetty-users
