[wildfly-dev] WildFly 8 - list of missing features?

[Tomaž Cerar]

Hi,

obvious things missing from WildFly are ones that ware removed:
- cmp, removed, as it is no longer EE7 requirement
- jaxr, removed, as it is no longer EE7 requirement
- osgi, removed as it was moved to separate project and can be re-added
manually

However the big thing we changed in WildFly is replacement of web server
from jbossweb to undertow (web subsystem to undertow subsystem).

There ware many things that ware integrated with jbossweb in it's specific
way (using valves for example) and things like that need to be migrated /
updated to be compatible with undertow.

Issue you linked is case of such incompatibility. It is hard to determine
how many other projects were relying on jbossweb/tomcat specific APIs so
producing any list would be quite hard.
All we could do is crate wiki page that list external projects and its
compatibility status.

My opinion is that beyond some custom auth mechanisms (what picketlink does
for example) most of things should work. As auth mechanisms APIs ware one
thing that (w)are tied to servlet container.
