[jboss-dev] Unified invokers in Branch_4_2

[Dimitris Andreadis]

We've switched to the unified invoker (jboss-remoting 2.0.0.GA) for the
EJB containers in JBossAS Branch_4_2.

For backwards compatibility, conf/standardjboss.xml contains both the
new unified and the old rmi invoker-proxy-binding definitions, but the
default now is the unified ones.

This change and the move to the Arjuna TS is causing a lot of failures
in the testsuite, so any help is appreciated.

If you search for 'rmi-invoker' in testsuite/resources there are quite a
few references to it, so a question is whether we should switch those as
well or let them test the old rmi invokers.

While there, I've also noticed that jboss head doesn't have rmi-invoker
definitions in conf/standardjboss.xml, and
org.jboss.metadata.SessionMetadata / EntityMetaData for some reason
default to the rmi-invoker for clustered setups, so I suppose this has
been forgotten there?

   public static final String DEFAULT_STATEFUL_INVOKER =
"stateful-unified-invoker";
   public static final String DEFAULT_CLUSTERED_STATEFUL_INVOKER =
"clustered-stateful-rmi-invoker";
   public static final String DEFAULT_STATELESS_INVOKER =
"stateless-unified-invoker";
   public static final String DEFAULT_CLUSTERED_STATELESS_INVOKER =
"clustered-stateless-rmi-invoker";

   public static final String DEFAULT_ENTITY_INVOKER_PROXY_BINDING =
      "entity-unified-invoker";
   public static final String
DEFAULT_CLUSTERED_ENTITY_INVOKER_PROXY_BINDING =
      "clustered-entity-rmi-invoker";
