    JBoss 4.3

    anilit99

      Hi there,
      I am just wondering, is there any version called JBoss 4.3 ? My colleague here is saying that JBoss 4.3 is available only for the subscription holders. Is it true ?
      If there is really a version in between JBoss 4.2.2 and JBoss 5.x, I would be interested in this subscription.

      thanks and regards
      Anil.

          The 4.3 is a paid enterprise application platform based on the free community version of the AS. See this for details http://www.jboss.com/products/platforms/application/

            So that means the AS integrated in the application platform is same as the highest community version, available ?

              No. JBoss EAP 4.3 is JBoss AS 4.2.2 + JBoss Messaging (in place of JBossMQ) + Seam + patches (the patches might make it close to AS 4.2.3). But EAP 4.3 is the latest version of 4.x that provides full support.

              The highest community version is now AS 5.1.0. EAP 5, currently in beta, is based on JBoss AS 5.1.0.GA.

                Essentially, with the community versions the mantra is "real often with the latest whizbang features" while the enterprise edition mantra is "provide a solid, stable platform for Java EE deployment". Thus the feature set of the enterprise versions will always trail that of the enterprise versions, but the enterprise versions will always be more stable.
