AS 5.1 and Seam Status

[clerum]

Given the issues with Seam Deployment and JBAS 5.x and the fact that 5.2 is moving to EE6 components is there going to be a 5.1.1 release that stabilizes AS5 with Seam?

I'm not seeing this on the roadmap in jira.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to get Seam to work reliably with JBAS 5.1 and thus I'm still using 4.2.3GA

See:

From what i know, the Seam deployments should be stabilized in the 5.2 version that will be released pretty soon.

I think that will require a new seam release due to the update of hibernate in the 5.x trunk.

Also even when I built the 5.x trunk on the svn revision before the hibernate upgrade and we still had a redeployment issue due to the persistence.xml being not being filtered out in ear. Pmuir and one other guy on irc got me to that point but they said that even with the new deployers some other jars needed to be updated.

I would be happy to test if you think this is working now but the trunk wasn't working with seam 2.2.0 a couple weeks ago.

I guess you will have to ask in the Seam forum to check with them if the current AS 5_x branch has the necessary Seam version.

My understanding is that this fix https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-7158 should be enough to get past all the issues related to aggressive redeployments with Seam apps on AS 5.

I think the current state of AS 5_x branch is better than what it was 2 weeks ago, with respect to the redeployment issues. So give it a try and see how it goes :)

well that should solve it. I can't imagine 5.2 releasing without an admin console.
