For JBoss Marshalling 1.3, I'm planning on adding a new River protocol
version (3) and phasing out version 1. As far as I'm aware, Infinispan is
using version 2, correct?
By phasing out old versions, I can reduce the number of runtime checks and
improve performance and maintainability. However, going forward, I will
not be removing support for protocol versions which are used in
widely-deployed versions of projects which use it (Infinispan for one).
Thus, as time goes on, expect me to be pinging you guys about your input on
keeping or dropping various protocol versions.
For protocol version 3, I'm looking at some or all of the following features:
- Full Javassist proxy serialization support
- Fast serialization of more collection types
- The JBoss Marshalling "Pair" type
- JDK 6 collection types (Deque, NavigableSet/NavigableMap and their
implementations)
- More collection utility wrapper types, probably including (but not
limited to):
- Collections.checked*()
- Collections.asLifoQueue()
- Collections.nCopies()
- Collections.newSetFromMap()
- Collections.reverseOrder(*)
Please speak up if there are other features that you'd like to see.

We use default version, which afaik is indeed 2 in 1.2.0.GA.

Nothing specific comes to my mind right now but I'll keep it mind in case
anything pops up.

OK, so you're not specifying 2 explicitly? Or are you negotiating the
version? Because for 1.3, the default version will change to 3, so an
instance running with JBMAR 1.2 won't be able to read messages written by
an instance running with JBMAR 1.3 by default then. You might want to
ensure that you've got a way to set the version somehow, especially as
JBossAS 6 will ship with a JBMAR 1.3.something.

What's this pair type?
It's a simple serializable class which holds two values of different types.
It uses generics for type-safety as well; each value may be of a
different type. Amazingly handy. :)
Nothing specific comes to my mind right now but I'll keep it mind
in case
anything pops up.
Thanks!

Ok, makes sense. I'll explicitly set it to 2. When we move to Infinispan
5.x, we can maybe move it up to 3 which by then JBMAR 1.3 will likely be
out.

So that's a serializable tuple then :).

OK, sounds like a plan.

Exactly :)
Thanks, Galder.
