JBoss 4.0.3 SP1: org.jboss.test.compatibility.test.SerialVer

[prakah]

Hello All,

I have problem in running JBoss 4.0.3 SP1 testsuite. The test case org.jboss.test.compatibility.test.SerialVersionUIDUnitTestCase fails in the HP-UX platform.

Reason:
There is a mismatch in the serialVersionUID for org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmNotification and org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmTableNotification classes.

serialVersionUID error for org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmNotification, 401 -8949067321470270949, current: -7041616127511632675
serialVersionUID error for org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmTableNotification, 401 2704927892962781138, current: -2307598716282112101

I have verfied the varia/src/main/org/jboss/monitor/alarm/AlarmNotification.java and varia/src/main/org/jboss/monitor/alarm/AlarmTableNotification.java. But these classes doesn't include the serialVersionUID field.

How to solve this problem?

It looks like there was an interface change between 4.0.1 and 4.0.3SP1 but I'm not sure why this wasn't picked up by our run of the compatibility tests before release, or even subsequent runs such as this one.

Of course, our runs are on the sun jvm, and i guess you are running on the HP-UX jvm?

Hello,

Yes, i am using the HP-UX JVM.

Some more inputs regarding this error.

I tried the same test in linux machine with the SUN JVM and the test case passes. When i debugged the reason for the success of the test case in linux, the two classes which i mentioned in the previous post were not considered for compatibility test. Following steps has been done to accomblish this one.

1. Add the following line to <JBOSS_SRC_HOME>/varia/src/main/org/jboss/tools/SerialVersionUID.java to print the serialVersionUID's for the all the classes.

79 System.out.println("serialVersion====="+classSerialVersion+"======classname====="+classname);

2. Export the classpath

$ export CLASSPATH=<JBOSS_SRC_HOME>/varia/output:<JBOSS_SRC_HOME>/third-party/junit/lib/junit.jar:<JBOSS_SRC_HOME>/testsuite/output/classes

3. Run the program

$ export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m"
$ cd <JBOSS_SRC_HOME>/testsuite/output
$ java -Djbosstest.dist=<JBOSS_SRC_HOME>/build/output/jboss-4.0.3sp1 org.jboss.test.compatibility.test.SerialVersionUIDUnitTestCase > output.txt

This will generate the output.txt file with the serialVersionUID and classname.

Following is the snippet of the output from linux and HP-UX.

Linux
####

serialVersion======0======classname=======org.jboss.monitor.alarm.Alarm
serialVersion======0======classname=======org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmHelper
serialVersion======0======classname=======org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmKey
serialVersion======0======classname=======org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmManager$1
serialVersion======0======classname=======org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmManager$Severity
serialVersion======0======classname=======org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmManager
serialVersion======0======classname=======org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmTable$1
serialVersion======0======classname=======org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmTable
serialVersion======0======classname=======org.jboss.monitor.alarm.MBeanImplAccess

HP-UX

serialVersion=====0======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.Alarm
serialVersion=====0======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmHelper
serialVersion=====0======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmKey
serialVersion=====0======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmManager$1
serialVersion=====0======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmManager$Severity
serialVersion=====0======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmManager
serialVersion=====-7041616127511632675======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmNotification
serialVersion=====0======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmTable$1
serialVersion=====0======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmTable
serialVersion=====-2307598716282112101======classname=====org.jboss.monitor.alarm.AlarmTableNotification

This comforms that, in linux the error coming classes are not taken into account for the compatibility test. I can't understand, why these happens. But, i think this why you haven't received the errors while testing.

Please suggest, any way to solve this error.

Ok, Prakash we may have a problem with our SerialVersionUID code. Can you create a JIRA for this at http://jira.jboss.com ? And post the JIRA id here. Thanks.
