[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-11575) DefaultCacheContainer getCache(...) createIfAbsent variants throw NPE when called with false and cache does not exist

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-11575?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin... ] Paul Ferraro commented on WFLY-11575: ------------------------------------- {quote}So there will be no fix delivered for version 13?{quote} No. We've done 2 major releases since, i.e. 14 and 15. {quote}Is it that much of a complicated matter to open a branch, or is support for it cancelled?{quote} It's not complicated. However, now that WildFly has moved to a 3 month release cadence (to align with the 6-month release cadence of the JDK), it would be cumbersome to backport fixes to so many branches, and still maintain a reasonable level of stability. Users can always checkout the 13.0.0.Final branch and cherry-pick any fixes from master that you'd like and perform a custom build. This is trivial to do. {quote}I would like to avoid migrating to the EE8 enabled versions for now{quote} Why? EE8 is fully backwards compatible with EE7 - so your EE7 application should be unaffected. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v7.12.1#712002)
