대충의 JBoss-4.2.3 GA 릴리즈 노트 정리


 Release Name: JBoss-4.2.3.GA

Notes:
JBoss AS 4.2.3.GA Release Notes

이번 릴리즈는 JBoss Application Server v4.2 시리즈의 세번째 버그 픽스 릴리즈이다. 이 릴리즈는 커뮤니티에서 보고된 
JBossAS v4.2.x릴리즈에 대한 버그를 수정한 것이다. 이전 버전인 4.2.0/4.2.1/4.2.2에 대한 하위버전 호환성이 있으므로 
그냥 업그레이드 해도 된다. 자세한 내용은 상세 릴리즈 노트 섹션을 참고하십시오.

이 릴리즈의 두번째 목정은 Java6에 대한 지원이 향상되었다는 것이다. JBossAS 4.2.3.GA는 JDK5와 JDK6을 이용하여 빌드가 
가능하다. JDK5 컴파일된 바이너리는 엄격한 테스트를 거쳐서 안정성을 보장할 수 있고, Java 5&6 VM에서 동작한다.( JDK6에 대해서
약간의 설정 변경이 필요하다. 아래를 참조 ) JDK6으로 컴파일된 버전은 JDBC 4 API를 지원한다. 그러나 지금 시점에서는 실험적이라고
생각한다.
JBoss AS 4.2 는 5.대 버전으로 넘어가는 과정에 있고, 5.대의 좋은 기능들을 (4.대 커널에 맞추어) 일부 적용하고 있다.  

JBoss AS 4.2는 또한 JBoss Enterprise Application Platform의 중심축이다. JBoss AS와 JBoss Seam이 패키징되어 제공되는 상용 Application
플랫폼은 JBoss/Red Hat에 의해 제공된다. 자세한 정보는 Sacha의 블로그를 읽어보시라.

Java EE 1.4 를 구현한 API에 대한 내용은 Java EE v1.4 문서에 있다. Java EE 1.4에 대한 깊은 이해가 필요하면,Java EE™ 1.4 Tutorial를 읽어보라.
jboss-4.2.x 시작하기 안내 문서는 JBoss Application Server 문서 목록에 포함되어 있다.

Note: 4.2.x 릴리즈에서는 EJB3같은, 일부 JavaEE5 기능을 제공한다. 그러나 이는 Java EE5 인증을 받지 않았다.

Highlights of JBoss AS 4.2 series

    * JBoss EJB3는 기본적으로 JBossAS 4.2.x에 포함되어 배포된다. JDK5에 기반하고 있기 때문에, 좀더 편리한 점이 있다. 더 이상 
    jdk1.4 런타임용 소스를 관리하지 않아도 된다. 기본적으로 jdk5에서 실행된다고, 가정한다.
    * JBoss Web v2.x는 JBossAS 4.2에 포함되는 웹 컨테이너이고, Apache Tomcat에 기반하여 구현되었다. Tomcat에는 Apache Portable Runtime(APR)이 포함되고, 
    Apache Http 서버에 필적하거나 능가하는 tomcat의 native 대용량 처리와 성능 관련 특징들이 포함되어 있다. 
    이 native 라이브러리가 없으면 JBoss Web은 표준 non-native connector mode로 동작한다. native library는 별개로 다운로드하여 JBOSS_HOME/bin/native에 설치해야한다.
    * Jboss Transactions v4.2는 JBossAS 4.2의 기본 트랜잭션 관리자이다. Jboss 트랜잭션은 18년간 산업현장에서 분산 트랜잭션분야의 선두로 이요되었고 검증되었다.
    JBoss 트랜잭션의 JTA버전은 완전히 복구 가능한 트랜잭션을 제공한다. 분산 트랜잭션 지원을 위해서 JBoss 트랜잭션의 JTS버전이 필요하다.
    또한, 언제나 과거의  JBossTM fast in-memory transaction manager 로 되돌릴 수도 있다. (단,구버전은 더이상 지원이 없을 것이다.)
    * JBoss WS는 JBoss 4.2와 함께 제공되는 웹 서비스 스택이다.
    * JGroups/JBossCache는 필요한경우 이용할 수 있는, 채널 다중화 를 제공한다.
    * JBoss Remoting는 최신 2.2.x버전으로 업그레이드 되었다.  이는 새로운 JBoss Messaging을 필요로 하는 써드파트 라이브러리에 대한
    의존성을 해결하기 위한 것이다. 즉, 특별한 개발 없이 JBossMQ 메시징 프로바이더를 JBoss Messaging으로 바꿀수 있다는 의미이다.


Compatibility Issues
This lists the changes that could affect compatibility.

우리의 제품 버전 원칙에 의해 JBossAS 4.2.3는 4.2.x 버전과 완벽히 일치한다. 그러나, 개별적인 JBoss나 써드파티 라이브러리 역시 그런지
확인하고 싶을것이다. 이전 버전의 JBoss 릴리즈와 관련된 이슈에 대해 다음에 대해 체크할 필요가 있다.  :
(신버전 설치와 무관하므로 패스함)

JBossAS 4.2.2.GA

    * JBossWS 1.2.1 supported JAX-WS only as a technology preview while JBossWS 2.0.1 used in AS 4.2.2 provides full 
JAX-WS support. If you have used in your code the annotation org.jboss.ws.annotation.WebContext this must be 
replaced by org.jboss.wsf.spi.annotation.WebContext.
    * JBoss WS 1.0.x due to a deployer limitation used a proprietary .jse extension for deploying WS endpoints 
nested in .sar files. This was deprecated with JBoss WS 1.2.x. and with JBoss WS 2.x this proprietary extension is 
not supported anymore as it is possible to use the standard .war extension for deploying nested WS endpoints. If you 
see: INIT_WAITING_DEPLOYER error messages for .jse files, re-package them using a .war extension, JBWS-1854.
    * Another known limitation is that EJB3 web service endpoints can only be specified using annotations and not 
metadata in jboss.xml. This is something that will be addressed in a future release, JBAS-4852, JBWS-1813.
    * Finding the default local business interface on a ejb3 bean may not work in certain inheritance scenarios. 
You may workaround this known problem by annotating the local business interface. Read more about this at EJBTHREE-1062.
    * EJB Timer related fixes, JBAS-3379, JBAS-4053.
    * JBossMQ related fixes, JBAS-4525, JBAS-4555, JBAS-4559, JBAS-4607, JBAS-4625, JBAS-4699
    * JSP compiler now set to compile JDK 1.5 source code by default, JBAS-4605.
    * The mail-ra.rar resource adapter was missing from the distro, JBAS-4659.
    * HSQLDB (which shouldn't be used in production) v1.8.0.8 has a known bug when used in server mode, 
JBAS-4694. This doesn't affect the default jboss installation where HSQLDB is used in in-process mode.
    * Serialization of HomeHandleImplIIOP has changed. In the unlikely case of a compatibility problem, define the 
system property 
-Dorg.jboss.proxy.ejb.old.homehandle.serialization=true 
to fall back to the legacy serialization mode, JBAS-4801. 

JBossAS 4.2.1.GA

    * JBoss TS, the new default transaction manager will not let you enlist multiple 1-phase participants in the 
same transaction. This was *not* the default behavior with the legacy JBoss TM that would log a warning and continue. 
There are good reasons for this change, mainly to avoid heuristic outcomes in the case of system crashes, which is 
the primary reason of using a transaction manager anyway! If your come across this problem you should try to fix it 
by switching to XA resources or implementing some form of compensating transactions. However, if this is not option 
and you are fully aware of the consequences you can override this behavior by setting com.arjuna.ats.jta.allowMultipleLastResources 
to true in conf/jbossjta-properties.xml. For more details read the wiki on Multiple1PC, or consult the JBoss 
Transactions documentation.
    * A major problem related to the cleaning up of threads after user transaction timeouts was corrected in JBAS-4481. 
If you happen to be using User Transactions make sure you follow the correct pattern for committing or rolling them back.
    * Another serious classloading issue that could lead to a hanging JBoss with a 100% CPU utilization was fixed with JBAS-4441.

JBossAS 4.2.0.GA

    * A JavaSE 5 runtime is required to run JBossAS 4.2. A full JDK with tools.jar support is no longer needed by 
jboss, since JBoss Web packages the eclipse JDT compiler for compiling JSP pages and javassist has its own internal 
compiler. JAVA_HOME can point to a JRE, JBAS-4161.
    * When compared to previous 4.0.x releases, the various JBoss APIs should be stable but backwards compatibility for 
individual component implementations may not be guaranteed, e.g. interoperating with another JBoss instance that uses 
an older version of JGroups.
    * Tomcat 6 is now bundled as part of JBoss Web. deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar has been replaced by deploy/jboss-web.deployer.
    * conf/log4j.xml has been renamed to conf/jboss-log4j.xml, to allow log4j.properties override from scoped 
deployments, JBAS-1853.
    * log4j and commons-logging have both been upgraded. commons-logging is patched in addition, JBAS-2823.
    * Since the latest log4j includes a trace level, there is no need to reference the custom jboss TRACE level in 
conf/jboss-log4j.xml configs, JBAS-4163.
      Instead of: <category name="org.jboss.system"><priority value="TRACE" class="org.jboss.logging.XLevel"/></category>
      you can use: <category name="org.jboss.system"><priority value="TRACE"/></category>
    * Better integration with WebSphere MQ 5.x, JBAS-3183.
    * The MyFaces JSF implementation has been replaced by the Glassfish JSF 1.2 one, JBAS-3897.
    * Hibernate, hibernate-annotations and hibernate-entity-manager have all been upgraded. to v3.2.1.
    * The default invoker for EJBs has been changed from the rmi-invoker to the unified-invoker, provided by JBoss 
Remoting, JBAS-3950.
    * Apache commons http-client and apache-codec were removed from jbossall-client.jar, JBAS-4365.
    * The address that is stored in the host portion of the RMI codebase URL can now be set correctly, JBAS-3325.
    * The java2ClassLoadingCompliance setting in jboss-web.xml was ignored; this has been fixed, JBAS-3047.
    * In JBoss 4.2 the unified invokers based on JBoss Remoting are the default transport for accessing EJBs. 
Using the unified invokers JBoss 4.2 can interoperate safely with JBoss AS 4.0.4.GA/4.0.5.GA, using the flag 
-Djboss.remoting.pre_2_0_compatible=true on the JBoss 4.2.x side. For interoperating with older JBoss AS versions 
(3.2.8.SP1 to 4.0.3.SP1) the legacy rmi or pooled invokers need to be used. See JBAS-4407 and the wiki page on JBoss 
Version Compatibility.

Configuration Issues
This lists the changes that could affect configuration.
JBossAS 4.2.3.GA

    * JBossAS 4.2.3.GA 는 Java5,Java6과 모두 사용될 수 있다. Java5로 컴파일된 바이너리가 메인 배포본이다. 이는 Java5&6환경에서
    철저한 테스트를 거쳤다. Java6에서 실행할때는 다음 라이브러리를 JBOSS_HOME/client 에서 JBOSS_HOME/lib/endorsed directory로
    복사해야한다. 그래야 JBossWS에서 JAX-WS 2.0을 사용할 수 있다.:
          o jboss-jaxrpc.jar
          o jboss-jaxws.jar
          o jboss-jaxws-ext.jar
          o jboss-saaj.jar
          o jaxb-api.jar
    * Sun Java 6과 이용할때, 문제가 발생하면 -Dsun.lang.ClassLoader.allowArraySyntax=true 를 사용하라. 
    Java6에서는 다른 몇가지 잠재적인 문제가 있다.:
          o ORB getting prematurely destroyed when using Sun JDK 6 (see Sun Bug ID: 6520484)
          o Unimplemented methods in Hibernate for JDK6 interfaces.
    * Java6으로 컴파일된 JBossAS 4.2.3 에서는  확장 JDBC 4 API를 사용할 수 있다. 이는 Java6 환경에서만 사용가능하다.
    수동으로 설정해야 하는 것은 없다. 단, 실험적인 상태라는 것을 명심해야한다.

JBossAS 4.2.2.GA

    * Extensions to LdapExtLoginModule, JBAS-4619.
    * Escape syntax for mysql and postgresql in jboss CMP, JBAS-4463.
    * Introduced a new system property org.jboss.mx.loading.UnifiedLoaderRepository.notifyMode to 
provide fine-grained control over the emission of notifications whenever Unified Classloaders are created. 
Classloader leaks can appear if those notifications are send to remote jmx agents, so the usage of the flag can 
avoid this problem, JBAS-4953. 

JBossAS 4.2.1.GA

    * %PATH% is not removed from java.library.path in the presence of JAVA_HOME/bin/native, so e.g. native jdbc 
drivers can be loaded, JBAS-4418.

JBossAS 4.2.0.GA

    * JBossAS now binds its services to localhost (127.0.0.1) *by default*, instead of binding to all 
available interfaces (0.0.0.0). This was primarily done for security reasons because of concerns of users going to 
production without having secured their servers properly. To enable remote access by binding JBoss services to a 
particular interface, simply run jboss with the -b option. To bind to all available interfaces and re-enable the 
legacy behaviour use -b 0.0.0.0. In any case, be aware you still need to secure you server properly.
    * There now distinct properties to configure the various mcast ports, JBAS-4021.
    * When running under Linux, run.sh forces the use of IPv4, due to a jdk bug, JBAS-4332.
    * JBoss EJB3 is now included by default. If you don't need/want EJB3 support, simply remove deploy/ejb3.deployer.
    * When using native libraries for JBoss Web store them in JBOSS_HOME/bin/native, which is automatically included 
in the classpath, JBAS-4162.
    * JBoss Transactions is the new default transaction manager in JBoss. It is configured in 
conf/jboss-service.xml and has additional properties defined in conf/jbossjta-properties.xml. The transaction 
log is stored by default at server/default/data/tx-object-store.
    * If you are on Red Hat Linux, check out the changes in bin/jboss_init_redhat.sh, JBAS-4041.
    * The JBossAS distributions usually include the installer (.jar), the sources (.tar.gz) and the canonical 
binary release (.zip). Unzipping the binary distribution (.zip) with a native unzip utility will restore correctly 
the executable permission in the /bin/*.sh files. However, unzipping using the JDK jar utility ignores the executable 
bit, so this need to be set manually.
    * bin/shutdown.sh no longer sources run.conf, JBAS-4155.
