In the next day or two, I'll hopefully begin the merge process for the
grizzly-config related changes (branches/v3-grizzly-config) as described
here:
http://wiki.glassfish.java.net/Wiki.jsp?page=GrizzlyConfigOnePager .
The quick description is that the schema for domain.xml is changing a
bit. The changes are almost completely webtier related. The new
default domain.xml is attached for you to look over. For new
installations, this update should be all but transparent. If, however,
you have existing xml files that you'd like to continue using, I have
written a migration utility that will update the file for you. This
migrator uses the same mechanism to read/write as is used at runtime by
the admin tools. By using this tool, any comments you have in the file
will be lost as comments are not stored as part of the DOM in memory.
So if those comments are important to you, you'll want to consider doing
the migration manually. You can run the migrator with the following
command in the v3/admin/config-api directory:
mvn exec:java -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dfile=<path to your file>
This will migrate your file automatically. Make sure you back up this
file before migrating just in case.
If you use the config-api interfaces, you'll notice that "old"
interfaces are still there but deprecated. Interfaces like HttpListener
are there for ease of migration but should not be used as they are no
longer considered by the configuration subsystem.
At this moment, all the quicklook tests are green except for the GUI
tests which return a series of 500 errors. The admin GUI will be likely
broken by this merge until Anissa has time to get the GUI caught up with
the schema changes. Existing admin CLI commands, however, will work
with the existing schema. New commands will be coming online in the
next short while, as well, for more targeted support for the new
schema. So for now, any admin work will need to be done using the CLI
or direct xml edits. Hopefully the GUI breakage won't last for long but
conflicting work by the GUI team precluded making updates on the branch
as best as I can tell.
I'll have diffs shortly for those interested in looking them over. I'm
not sure who all needs to sign off on this merge so some guidance would
be helpful. I'll do my best to answer any questions anyone might have.
