Introduce system property to preserve backwards compatibility of Util.object{To,From}ByteBuffer() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-294 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-294 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Feature Request Affects Versions: 2.3 SP1 Reporter: Bela Ban Assigned To: Bela Ban Fix For: 2.4 Because of the HAPartitionImpl marshalling issue we found in 4.0.x last night, 2.4 is not going to work in 4.0.2 (or any 4.0 before 4.0.5.GA). A workaround for this is to check a system property in a static initializer in Util. If "compatibility mode" or whatever, fall back to the old Util.objectTo/FromByteBuffer impl. Users of old AS releases would have to set this property to use 2.4 or higher. But, it seems I have system properties on the brain these days; its starting to look like a golden hammer, so proceed with caution ;) BTW, the JIRA to ensure this isn't an issue for 4.0.5.GA is http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3593. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
