As it stands today, the WildFly OpenSSL project contains both Java
code
and native code. This means that each time we need to do a release, we need
to build the natives, regardless of whether or not there have actually been
changes made to the native code. The process of building the natives on
various platforms takes time and has caused delays in the past that could
have been avoided if we were able to handle changes to the Java code only
as a separate release. We have actually found that there have been many
times where a release has involved changes to only the Java code. To
simplify the release process, we're going to be splitting out the native
code from the WildFly OpenSSL project into a separate project. That
way, changes to the Java code only will be able to be handled as a separate
release, without needing to rebuild the natives. The proposed changes can
be found in our incubator:
https://github.com/wildfly-security-incubator/wildfly-openssl-natives
https://github.com/wildfly-security-incubator/wildfly-openssl/tree/2.x
The native modules that have been split out are going to retain the same
group and artifact ID as they had when contained in the wildfly-openssl
project.

Farah
