Hi folks,
I just uploaded the new website of Fulcrum (http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/fulcrum/) with the following changes/improvments
YAAFI ==========================================================
+) YAAFI and Fulcrum ResourceManager now supports decryption, e.g. running YAAFI with encrypted role configuration file and/or encrypted resources - this might not be for everyone though but is essential for my company to roll out applications without everyone kicking out the licence manager ... :-)
+) YAAFI now supports reconfiguraion of service components by exposing a ServiceLifecycleManager
+) There is now a ReconfigurationService which uses a background thread to monitor configuration files. If a monitored configuration file changes either the whole container or a list of service components are reconfigured (assuming they implements Reconfigurable). A good (theoretical) example would be the Torque component - changing the database settings enforces a reconfiguration of the Torque service to pickup the new settings.
+) The bootstrapping of YAAFI was improved to use a componentConfiguration.xml containg information about the various other configuration files.
+) YAAFI now supports running service components making assumptions about the Avalon Context (Phoenix,Fortress,Merlin) but it is not properly tested.
+) Improved the documentation
Other Services ==========================================================
+) I fixed a few role configuration files to declare the role-entries in the correct instantiation order (see changelog). This is a requirement since YAAFI has no metadata to determine the instantiation order automatically.
+) Ugrading from javaemail-1.3 to 1.3.1 and Turbine 2.3 to 2.3.1 to improve the dependency convergence report - this just leaves the HSQLDB dependency to be cleaned up
Cheers,
Siegfried Goeschl
