Re: Upgrading Tyrus in GlassFish 4.1 from 1.8.1 to 1.8.3

Hi Ross,

yes, the upgrade should be that simple.

Actually, it should be that simple always, since we are integrating on
servlet level - so you can just remove all tyrus related jars and
replace them with newer version. There might be some issues with client
side, since it by default uses Grizzly from GF, but I believe we reached
the point where the Grizzly client/Tyrus SPI is defined well and won't
be changed very often.

The easiest way how to get GF with updated Tyrus version would always be
building current GF trunk, but I see why that might be not as convenient
for you. We will consider publishing GF upgrade section in release
notes, as you suggested.

Thanks for your feedback!
Pavel
