Hello Everyone!
We are pleased to announce a new release of SmartFrog, release 3.12.010
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=87384&package_id=108447&release_id=552931
The main changes are
-better diagnostics (we can detect duplicate smartfrog JARs on the
classpath)
-A new AntBuild component that can run complete Ant build files on target
machines.
The latter isn't included with any good documentation; this is still ongoing.
Keep an eye on
http://smartfrog.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/*checkout*/smartfrog/trunk/core/components/ant/doc/ant_readme.sxw
As usual, feedback and bugreps to Jira and the mailing list.
Have fun!
SmartFrog Team.
Changes since last release
==========================
There have been no major changes to the core SmartFrog engine or components
since the last release. We have added some diagnostics; any of the smartfrog
commands can be called with the -diagnostics option, which will print out
diagnostic information about the environment in which SmartFrog is running.
There is now an AntBuild component in the sf-ant package, defined in
/org/smartfrog/services/ant/components.sf . This component can run an existing
Ant build file inside a SmartFrog process, passing down properties and
collecting results. Output is passed to the SmartFrog log infrastructure, and
properties from the build can be turned into attributes on a designated target
component. Build failures can be configured to terminate the component. If the
AntBuild component is terminated mid-build, a best-effort attempt will be made
to interrupt the build; if that does not halt the build within a specified
timeout, termination can be forced.
This component enables you to integrate existing XML build files into a
SmartFrog managed deployment, potentially running a build file remotely.
Users are requested to provide feedback, to help improve the functionality of
the component. We are particularly interested in improving termination, failure
and reporting. We also have to complete the documentation for this component -
please ask on the mailing list for the location in the subversion repository of
the latest documentation.
