The proposed Apache Tomcat 8.0.0 release candidate 7 is now available for voting.
Given this is a release candidate I am working on the basis that it is equivalent to an alpha. The main changes since RC5 are: - Better handling of generic types in the WebSocket 1.0 implementation - Refactor resource handling for the class loader - Add Cobertura support to the unit tests - Remove anti-Jar locking feature and replace it with open stream tracking - Update to Commons Pool 2.0 release - Complete refactoring of TLD handling including caching of parsed TLDs - More consistent handling of XML validation options - Much more detailed visibility of DBCP connections pools in JMX - Better organisation of JMX beans in the default JConsole view - Numerous bug fixes It can be obtained from: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomcat/tomcat-8/v8.0.0-RC7/ The Maven staging repo is: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachetomcat-047/ The svn tag is: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/tags/TOMCAT_8_0_0_RC6/ The proposed 8.0.0-RC7 release is: [ ] Broken - do not release [ ] Alpha - go ahead and release as 8.0.0-RC7 alpha Cheers, Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
