Hello
I'd like to announce new release of Pax Web: 8.0.35. We have new versions
of Tomcat and Undertow runtimes.
*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 9.4.58.v20250814
- Tomcat 9.0.115
- Undertow 2.2.39.Final
The actual reason for this release is to align with Pax URL 2.7.0 which a)
uses new Maven Resolver, b) is still (pax-url-war) for JakartaEE 8
For completeness, the changelog is available for 8.0.35[1].
kind regards
Grzegorz Grzybek
