Hi all, sorry I faded out of existence for a while there.
What is the status of changes for 1.1 and 1.0.2?
For 1.0.2:
I'd like to push 1.0.2 real-soon-now. There are a couple failing tests,
I get 1 failure in odmg tests, 1 failure in otm tests (against hsql). (my locally OJB1.0.x version with changed locking stuff)
which I will try to look at this weekend, but once wrapped up, is there anything pending in it?
Today or tomorrow I will check in changes in locking handling:
- Restore the "old" odmg locking api and declare it deprecated, because only this way we can guarantee 100% compatibility (the old locking stuff can be enabled in OJB.properties file, by default the new was used).
- Reworked the new kernel locking stuff (now all operations should be atomic, so concurrency problems should no longer happen)
- Add support for apache's commons-transaction locking stuff. I had contact with the founder and the next version of commons-tx will include some changes needed to make it work with OJB. Till this a dev-jar in OJB/lib directory was added.
- Locking docs (needs still some changes to reflect the new stuff)
I found new problems with the odmg dirty/new/deleted object detection mechanism. There are problems with proxy objects (and other stuff). I don't find a "simple fix" or workaround for these problems, think we have to rework this stuff.
There is a test case called ObjectImageTest (bad name I know ;-)). All tests are commented out. Run these tests to get an impression of the problem.
I locally started with an odmg rework, but first I wanted to complete the new kernel locking handling.
So the PB-api is ready for release, but the odmg-api has things to fix (e.g. still outstanding m:n bug fixing).
regards, Armin
For 1.1:
I'm going to roll the dirty stuff out, I want the functionality, and will continue to plunk at it, but haven't had the time to make it solid enough that I'd be comfortable supporting it.
What is the status of the bean-oriented stuff (yea!) ?
How are docs for the changes?
Thanks,
Brian
