Hello
I'd like to announce new release of Pax Web: 8.0.33. We have new version of
Tomcat runtime and few stability fixes.
*As with Pax Web 8.0.32, I would like to highlight that this is probably
the last release from 8.0.x branch.* The reason is that we already have Pax
Web 10 and Pax Web 11 released. As reminder:
- Pax Web 10 - same as Pax Web 8 in terms of supporting JakartaEE 8 and
javax.servlet namespace, but with JDK17 baseline and Jetty 9 replaced by
Jetty 12 (ee8 libraries). Jetty 9, 10 and 11 are no longer supported!
- Pax Web 11 - the new release based on JakartaEE 9+ and jakarta.servlet
namespace. Also JDK 17 is the baseline. This is a full move from
javax.servlet to jakarta.servlet and new runtime versions will be:
- Jetty 12
- Tomcat 11
- Undertow 2.3
Current runtime versions for Pax Web 8 are:
- Jetty 9.4.57.v20241219
- Tomcat 9.0.107
- Undertow 2.2.37.Final
This release includes stability fixes related to:
- quick re-registration (for example related to PID change) of
HttpService runtime
- mixing WAB and Whiteboard registrations (potential deadlock)
- duplicate internal listeners being involved
For completeness, the changelog is available for 8.0.33[1].
kind regards
Grzegorz Grzybek
