Nicolas Malin commented on OFBIZ-7760: -------------------------------------- Thanks Jacopo for this issue that resolve the problem with jdbm. Maybe if the need appears to use cache with file system store wecan be inspired by this issue ! > Removed from UtilCache the ability to persist entries in the file system > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: OFBIZ-7760 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-7760 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: framework > Affects Versions: Trunk > Reporter: Jacopo Cappellato > Assignee: Jacopo Cappellato > Fix For: Upcoming Branch > > Attachments: OFBIZ-7760.patch > > > Removed from UtilCache the ability to persist entries in the file system. > This feature has been contributed a long time ago as an experimental feature > but never really matured into a production ready artifact: since it was > contributed, no users asked about how to use it, or tested it, or reported > bugs or enhancement requests. > More importantly, the feature has always been disabled in the OFBiz framework > (i.e. the widget code and the entity engine code were not using it). > This removal should not impact our user base; however, after the removal, an > entry to the Attic will be created to keep track of it and to make it easier, > to interested users, to get this code, improve it (e.g. by making it > dependent on a live external jar, for example MapDB instead of JDBM) and > possibly contribute it back to the project. > The most compelling reason for its removal is that the feature was based on a > snapshot, unreleased version of JDBM, which is now a mostly dead project: for > licensing reasons we are no more allowed to bundle jars in our releases. > Additionally, having code that relies an old jar from a no more active > project represents a maintenance issue for the community. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
