7.0.9

Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with the Jakarta EE 10 specification, which is a major new feature release. Jakarta EE 10 requires JDK 11 as a minimum, but also works on JDK 17.

GlassFish 7.0.9 is a final release, containing final Jakarta EE 10 APIs. It compiles and runs on JDK 11 to JDK 21. MicroProfile support requires JDK 17 or higher.

Release overview

In this release the modularity of GlassFish is once again increased by moving the Jakarta Authentication implementation code to a new standalone project: Epicyro (a while ago a similar thing was done with Jakarta Authorization implementation code moving to Exousia). We also enabled the GlassFish embedded tests again, which were dormant for a long time; this emphasises the commitment of the team to keep GlassFish embedded in a good shape. Among the many updated components, Exousia was updated specifically to fix a bug with deployments on virtual servers, and the ORB was updated to fix a somewhat obscure bug where a remote EJB returned a JDK defined enum type.

7.0.7

Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with the Jakarta EE 10 specification, which is a major new feature release. Jakarta EE 10 requires JDK 11 as a minimum, but also works on JDK 17.

GlassFish 7.0.7 is a final release, containing final Jakarta EE 10 APIs. It compiles and runs on JDK 11 to JDK 21ea33. MicroProfile support requires JDK 17 or higher.

Release overview

This release prepares GlassFish for the upcoming JDK 21; it compiles and passes all internal tests using OpenJDK 21ea33. Several TCKs passed on JDK 21 as well, but the TCK as a whole is not JDK 21 compatible yet. This release also adds support for MicroProfile JWT 2.1, and has many components updated to their latest version. Several issues have again been fixed in the Admin Console. An important bug regarding Enterprise Beans method generation has been fixed, as has a remote access issue for Enterprise Beans.

GlassFish 7.0.6 is a final release, containing final Jakarta EE 10 APIs. It compiles and runs on JDK 11 to JDK 20. MicroProfile support requires JDK 17 or higher.

Release overview

The main features of this release are the newly added support of the MicroProfile REST Client and a new way to start GlassFish, which is a preparation for Docker images that will run GlassFish in the foreground in a single JVM process to save memory consumed by Docker containers. Additionally GlassFish now support using @Inject to inject REST artefacts into REST resources, and several timeouts have been added to the admin console. This release also contains the usual amount of fixes, and a number of important component updates. Specifically the EclipseLink and Soteria updates fix important bugs (see their release notes). Internally this release contains fixes concerning the ProcessManager, ProcessBuilder and ProcessExecutor and adds the ability to do fine-grained bytecode preprocessing tracking in WebappClassLoader.

A new feature for ScatteredArchive has been added, which allows the following;

        GlassFish glassfish = GlassFishRuntime.bootstrap().newGlassFish(gfProperties);
        glassfish.start();

        ScatteredArchive archive = new ScatteredArchive("simpleapp", ScatteredArchive.Type.WAR);

        archive.addCurrentClassPath(); 
        /* HERE: without this method, each classpath element would have to be discovered 
                       and added to the classpath manually using archive.addClasspath()
        */

        final Deployer deployer = glassfish.getDeployer();

7.0.2

Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with the Jakarta EE 10 specification, which is a major new feature release. Jakarta EE 10 requires JDK 11 as a minimum, but also works on JDK 17.

GlassFish 7.0.2 is a final release, containing final Jakarta EE 10 APIs. It compiles and runs on JDK 11 to JDK 19. Compilation and running on JDK 20ea34 has also been tested and initial testing shows it seems to work. MicroProfile support requires JDK 17 or higher.

glassfish-7

Release overview

The main features of this release are the updates of various components, fixing a wide array of issues. Specifically with WaSP 3.2.0 a major change is that it now includes the Pages Standard Tags, so the separate jar for this is no longer present in GlassFish. We also fixed an important regression where requesting a directory from the ClassLoader failed for exploded deploys. This now works again. Additionally the version (7.0.2 now) is reported correctly again, which can be important for package managers such as brew.

Internally, this release features a massive overhaul and cleanup of the DOL module (Deployment Object Library) fixing years of technical debt and updating various components, as well as a large cleanup of the way JNDI names are handled internally. Furthermore this release contains many fixes for the logging functionality of GlassFish, specifically when logging under high load and at a detailed log level. The way GlassFish servers start and stop has been revisited to work better on modern operating systems and restricted environments.

Many non-Jakarta EE components have been updated, and specifically the OSGi version has been bumped from 7 to 8. Finally, an amount of bugs have been fixed.
