6.2.5

Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with Jakarta EE 9.1, which is functionally identical to Jakarta EE 9, but runs on JDK 11. GlassFish also runs on JDK 17 and JDK 18ea.

GlassFish 6.2.5 updates and reenables a lot of tests that were disabled in previous versions (most after the GF 5 to 6 transition), once again improves JDK 17 compatibility (cases found by the new tests), fixes several bugs, and contains new versions of Hibernate Validator, Jackson and others.

GlassFish 6.2.5 compiles with JDK 11 to JDK 18ea.

6.2.4

Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with Jakarta EE 9.1, which is functionally identical to Jakarta EE 9, but runs on JDK 11. GlassFish also runs on JDK 17 and JDK 18ea.

GlassFish 6.2.4 compiles with JDK 11 to JDK 18ea.

GlassFish 6.2.4 brings initial support for JDK 18 (tested until ea29) and adds running several standalone Jakarta EE TCKs directly from the project. An import internal fix is removing a troublesome circular dependency between GlassFish and Jersey.

7.0.0-M1

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

Note: 7.0.0 M1 is an early alpha release demonstrating a number of early Jakarta EE 10 APIs. By far not everything works yet.

GlassFish 7.0.0-M1 compiles and runs on JDK 11 to JDK 18.

This release is mostly based upon the still in progress PR to add the Jakarta EE 10 components. APIs and sometimes just placeholder implementations have been added for:

• Servlet 6.0
• Pages 3.1
• Faces 4.0
• CDI 4.0
• JAXB 4.0
• Persistence 3.1
• REST 3.1
• Batch 2.1
• Authorization 2.1
• Authentication 3.0
• And the implementation projects of these, such as WaSP, Mojarra, Weld, EclipseLink, Exousia etc.

Note that in this milestone Krazo (MVC) and Soteria (Security) have been disabled, awaiting updated versions of these.

6.2.3

Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with Jakarta EE 9.1, which is functionally identical to Jakarta EE 9, but runs on JDK 11. GlassFish also runs on JDK 17.

GlassFish 6.2.3 compiles with JDK 11 to JDK 17.

GlassFish 6.2.3 continues with bringing GlassFish embedded back to live, and once again contains an import fix for a memory leak. A major behind the scenes accomplishment is strongly improved proxy generator code for JDK 11+.
