Hi,

Indeed, WADI has a lot of dependencies on concurrent. As a matter of

message processing/passing components and distributed locks of WADI  
on top of the JDK 1.4.


I re-implemented the relevant WADI classes to use J2SE5  
j.u.concurrent instead of concurrent:  http://svn.wadi.codehaus.org/changelog/wadi/trunk/wadi?cs=2415


I will cut a new WADI release tomorrow night and move 2.1 and trunk  
to this new revision.


Great! Thanks a lot Gianny.

FYI, just got a pointer on legal-discuss@ to a CopyOnWriteArrayList  
implementation in Harmony. Seems that Harmony is using the concurrent  
library minus the two classes, plus their CopyOnWriteArray. Since  
ConcurrentReaderHashMap isn't part of the SE 5 api, they didn't need  
it. So, looks like we might have had another option.

Thanks for looking at this Jarek.

A bit more info on the problem with the concurrent library. The doc
that I've found on the concurrent library is here -- http:// 
g.oswego.edu/dl/classes/EDU/oswego/cs/dl/util/concurrent/intro.html


As described there, the concurrent classes have been released to the
public domain. However, two classes are copyright Sun and appear  
to be

covered by the following license agreement:

http://g.oswego.edu/dl/classes/EDU/oswego/cs/dl/util/sun- 
u.c.license.pdf


The problem with that license is:

"You acknowledge that Software is not designed, licensed or intended
for use in the design, construction, operation or maintenance of any
nuclear facility."

This limitation is, I'm pretty sure, going to be against Apache
Policy. It would be classified as a category x license (i.e. the
licensed artifacts can't be included in an Apache distribution).  
See http://people.apache.org/~rubys/3party.html

  for more information on 3rd party licensing.

So, things we can do:

1) validate the above on legal-discuss. I could always be wrong.
2) leave out concurrent jar, but require users to download the jar if
they want to use wadi
3) update wadi to use JSE 5 concurrent support
4) Remove the CopyOnWriteArrayList and ConcurrentReaderHashMap  
classes

from the concurrent jar. If wadi (and internal concurrent
implementation) doesn't use those classes, everything should be OK.

We included the library in at least our 1.1.1 release (it's not in  
our

2.0.x releases). Unfortunately, that doesn't help us. Just means that
we were wrong back then...

  If anybody has any additional thoughts or ideas, let us know. We'll
have to resolve this issue prior to a 2.1 release.

Hi Gianny,
I thought i had checked to be sure the module had been started.  
Checking... OK. So, I had searched for wadi-clustering... But first  
hit was as a child of "clustering" (which was running).


The licensing for the concurrent library is problematic. It would be  
best to drop this dependency.


Is it possible to use jse 5 concurrent support, instead?
