Big additions to 3 from 2.4 (I may forget something...) -cmp2 -clustering -more flexible deployment and classloading system
Maybe not so big additions: -web service support -corba support -improved jca and database connectivity support. Of these the big reason to look at 3 first is perhaps the cmp2 support. cmp1 tends to make it look like you can only see one db row at a time, cmp2 gives you "detail table" views of stuff. If you want to look at the source code and compile it yourself I highly recommend 3. I can't figure out how to compile 2.4 any longer;-) As for the book/ JBoss 3 race... we're trying, bad marketing or no;-) david jencks On 2002.04.16 21:11:44 -0400 Phil Shrimpton wrote: > On Tuesday 16 April 2002 23:35, Dmitri Colebatch wrote: > > Hi, > > > Are you entering the world of JBoss from another EJB server, or fresh? > > Fresh. > > > If > > you're entering fresh, and learning EJB, then I dont imagine the > > differences between 2.4 and 3.0 would bother you too much at first > > I am more concernern with documentation etc., which is very important > when > you are getting into something new.
