[infinispan-dev] My weekly update

Hi all, unfortunately I cannot attend today's weekly update. So here it is (together with the previous week, because we skipped last week's): Galder and I had a very productive 4 day face-to-face at my place talking about the Infinispan 8 API changes. We also met with Mario Fusco of Drools and "Java 8 in Action" fame who gave us some really precious suggestions. Galder has collected most of the ideas on the "cache" side whereas I will soon write-up the plans for the "container". As for coding, here's a breakdown by Jira: ISPN-5355 - fixed: it was a bug lurking under some wrong assumptions in the configuration inheritance code. ISPN-5359 - removed some really old server parsers. We should actually remove some more during the 8.x cycle. ISPN-5147 - replaced all of the server attribute/add/remove handlers so that we don't trigger a global "require-reload" from the server, but just restarting the affected cache. I want to extend this so that server attributes actually "know" whether a configuration attribute is runtime modifiable so that we can apply it immediately. ISPN-5351 - make sure that certain attributes get copied correctly between configurations (especially TypedProperties) Tristan -- Tristan Tarrant Infinispan Lead JBoss, a division of Red Hat
