Following up to the announcement by @NitinLamba (
http://markmail.org/message/ooxd3loui7f3pvuk?q=list:org%2Eapache%2Egeode%2Edev+order:date-backward+from:%22Nitin+Lamba%22&page=1)
on the successful release of Apache Geode 1.0.0-incubating.M1, I am happy
to announce the release of Spring Data GemFire 1.7.0.APACHE-GEODE-EA-M1.
This version of Spring Data GemFire includes support explicitly for Apache
Geode 1.0.0-incubating.M1 release. This means, unlike SDG
1.7.0.APACHE-GEODE-EA-SNAPSHOT, that SDG is rooted at and based on a stable
and fixed version of Apache Geode, which should help simplify development
of Apache Geode applications using Spring.
The SDG 1.7.0.APACHE-GEODE-EA-SNAPSHOT version will continue to follow and
track nightly Apache Geode build snapshots in order to stay closely aligned
with Apache Geode development as it continues on it's path towards final
GA. For those of you who like to stay on the cutting edge, you can
continue to use the SDG 1.7.0.APACHE-GEODE-EA-SNAPSHOT version.
For everyone else looking to have a stable development experience building
Apache Geode applications using Spring, include the following dependency
declaration in your project Maven POM file...
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-data-gemfire</artifactId>
<version>1.7.0.APACHE-GEODE-EA-M1</version>
</dependency>
Additionally, you will need to add the following repository declaration...
<repository>
<id>spring-libs-milestone</id>
<name>Spring Milestones Maven Repository</name>
<url>https://repo.spring.io/libs-milestone</url>
</repository>
However, you no longer need to declare the Apache Maven Snapshots
Repository (@https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots)
in your POM file because, as Nitin explained, Apache Geode
1.0.0-incubating.M1 is available in Maven Central... Yay!
Happy coding peeps!
