AS7-886 any suggestions on fixing PU.getNewTempClassLoader
by Scott Marlow
I'd like to use the JPA persistence unit getNewTempClassLoader with
EclipseLink sometime for 7.1. Any suggestions how to fix?
Should JPA perhaps duplicate the module classloader logic that reads the
raw VFS classfiles or is there an easier way? It is probably fine to
delegate to the original module class loader for parent level class
loading but not for loading application classes.
The idea of the JPA PU temp class loader is for accessing app classes,
before the app class loader loads them.
https://github.com/jbossas/jboss-as/blob/master/jpa/core/src/main/java/or...
is not yet working.
Thanks,

Looking for migration expertise in a few areas
by Sande Gilda
Based on the review of the content specification document for Migration
from EAP 5.x to EAP 6, it looks like I'm lacking in material for the
following topics. You can see the current list of all migration topics
and information here:
https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/How+do+I+migrate+my+application....
Keep in mind that purpose of this guide is to document only those
changes that are necessary to successfully run and deploy EAP5.1
applications on EAP6, not to modify the applications to use the latest
EAP 6 features and functions. Please feel free to update the document if
you have additional information or correct anything that is wrong. If
you do not want to edit the document directly, please send information
to me and I will make the changes.
*Topic
* *Expert *
Examples of JNDI mappings in previous releases and how they might look
now ???
Migrate remote EJB clients to the EAP 6 client API Carlo DeWolf
Jaikiran Pai
???
Migrate EAP 5 deployed applications which make remote invocations to
EAP6 ???
Update your JMS client code Andy Miller
Clebert Suconic
???
Changes you need to make for clustering in EAP 6 ???
Changes you need to make for security in EAP 6 ???
Migrate applications using jboss-beans.xml style deployments ???
Migrate applications using jboss-service.xml style deployments ???
If you have the expertise, know who I could talk to, or know where I can
find material for any of the above topics, please let me know. Also, if
you notice any migration issues or topics I might be missing, please let
me know ASAP!
Thanks,

datasource/connection-url reference to interfaces/ports
by Scott Stark
The datasource/connection-url property in the domain model is outside of
the interfaces and socket-binding-group usage. The current
datasource_1_0.xsd does not have a reference to sockets or interfaces.
We also don't seem to be setting jboss.server.* system properties that
could be used to create a configuration fragment like:
<datasource jndi-name="java:jboss/datasources/MysqlDS" enabled="true"
use-java-context="true" pool-name="H2DS">
<connection-url>jdbc:mysql://${jboss.server.default.interface}:${jboss.server.socket-binding-group.mysql}/database</connection-url>
<driver>mysql</driver>
<security>
<user-name>sa</user-name>
<password>sa</password>
</security>
</datasource>
What is the plan to allow jca connection factories to integrate into the
interfaces/ports part of the domain model?
This came up as we add support for mysql in the openshift express
cartridge, and modification of the connection-url for the host the
server is running on requires changes in two parts of the standalone.xml
configuration rather than one.

Management Console: changing values that require a restart
by David Bosschaert
Hi all,
Just like to get the general feeling about this.
In the Management Console and via the Detyped API you can in some cases
modify configuration that requires a restart in order to become
effective. I'd like to find out what the general feeling is about this:
Option 1: make it editable via the Console and display a message that
changing this configuration requires a restart.
Option 2: make it viewable only.
So option 2 is clearly the safest option, but has a drawback that people
can't use the console to specify this configuration, they'd have to
crack open the .xml and edit that.
Option 1 gives people a fancy editor over standalone.xml / domain.xml
but does have the disadvantage that the specified values don't get
applied until the restart is done.
How do we generally handle this? Obviously, the best thing to do is
change the behaviour so that the restart isn't needed by sometimes this
isn't the highest priority within the realm of time constraints...
Cheers,
David

Last week:
JMX management model facade work
As part of ^ I rewrote the management model<->open mbean type conversion, since what I had before was terrible :-)
This week:
Update the subsystem archetype + docs to use the 7.0.1 org.jboss.as:jboss-as-subsystem-test subystem testing harness which was inspired by the 7.0.0 version of the archetype.
Start testing the JMX management model facade in AS and resolve any issues
PTO starting Wednesday, back on Thursday 1st.

JMX add/remove connector
by Kabir Khan
JMX has the following ops
/subsystem=jmx:add-connector(name=xxx,……)
/subsystem=jmx:remove-connector(name=xxx)
I'd like to move these to fit the normal add/remove pattern, e.g.
/subsystem=jmx/connector=xxx:add(…)
/subsystem=jmx/connector=xxx:remove
I didn't find an existing JIRA for this so I created https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-1616

I see a some information, for example, https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/Messaging+configuration, but I'm need help figuring out what people might have done in EAP 5.1 and what they'll need to change to get the application to deploy and run in EAP6.

Dear subsystem owners/components leads ....
by Heiko Braun
Currently the console provides management operations for a very basic set of use cases.
This needs to be extended for AS 7.1.
Going forward we require your feedback. What do you think should be tackled next?
Most of these questions are very problem domain specific. It would be great if all component leads
could take some time and think about the following:
- does my component expose reasonable management operations?
- what would developers expect? what about system administrators?
- how does play within a managed domain?
- is my component part of a layered product? what's needed there?
We don't expect you to provide the UI, but at least the low level management operations need to be implemented by your team.
Think about the most frequently used operations. We don't need to expose every nitty gritty details of you configuration schema.
It would be really great help, if you could assign somebody to be our point of contact for all questions management related.
Make sure you plan some time early in this iteration so we can work through these issues.
Prepare for change requests and new component releases.
Last but not least, some areas that I believe can be improved:
- security
- clustering
- ejb, jpa, weld
- transactions
- messaging (non JMS)
- infinispan
Thanks for your help,
Ike
