Hi everybody!
We are pleased to announce the availability of Jonas version 2.0.
What is new in JOnAS 2.0
------------------------
This version is compliant to EJB1.1 :
- Deployment descriptors that is part of the ejb-jar file must be
provided in XML
and valid with the respect of the DTD :
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/ejb-jar_1_1.dtd.
- Primary key that maps to a single field in the entity bean class is
supported.
Use of entity beans with a deferred primary key type specification
is supported.
- For Container-managed transaction demarcation the transaction
attribute Never
is supported.
- Enterprise bean's environment is accessed via the JNDI naming contet
java:comp/env
Resource manager connection factory references are supported.
The environment naming context replaces the EJB 1.0 concept of
environment properties
but JOnAS supports the two styles.(EJBContext.getEnvironment() may
be used).
User Transaction interface is available to session beans with
bean-managed transaction
demarcation in JNDI under the name java:com/UserTransaction.
User Transaction interface is still available to a java client in
JNDI under the name
javax.transaction.UserTransaction.
- javax.ejb.EJBException is supported.
Support for Distribution :
- A new version of Jeremie is provided with the standard distribution:
Jeremie 2.0 beta 4. This version is now faster than standard rmi
particularly
on colocated inter beans calls.
Other :
AdmServer administration tool is replaced by JonasAdmin tool. This
tool
has the same fonctionalities than the previous plus an interactive
mode.
What is deprecated in JOnAS 2.0 :
-------------------------------
- The old style of deployment descriptor is no more supported.
GenDD and CheckEJB tools doesn't exist anymore.
NOTE:The distribution does not contain the javax.ejb.* package anymore ;
you need to fetch that yourself (see the insatllation Guide present in
the distribution).
We hope you will enjoy!
