JBoss 3.2.4 and Nukes status

[sgwood]

With JBoss 3.2.4 final just out, I thought I would try my Nukes module against it. It looks like there will need to be some changes to the code to make Nukes work in the new release.

On startup, when the Nukes.ear is being deployed, I get:

[org.jboss.deployment.SARDeployer] create operation failed for package file:/C:/jboss-3.2.4/server/default/deploy/nukes.ear/nukes.sar

...

This raises several questions:

* What version of JBoss should Nukes 1.1 be aiming for? 3.2.3 only? Both versions?

* How should we deal with differences in the code base driven by differences between different JBoss versions? Different branches in the code base and different distributions?


Any thoughts?

that class is missing from the jboss-jmx.jar in the root lib directory (not the one under /server/default/lib).

according to cvs, the class was removed from the 3.2 branch when the jmx 1.2 was backported from the head.

yes it needs some changes

What version of JBoss should Nukes 1.1 be aiming for? 3.2.3 only? Both versions?

Any feelings on this? If the differences are minimal, I would say that we need to have versions of Nukes for JBoss 3.2.3 and 3.2.4.

i took a look at some of this last night, and i don't think they are all trivial updates. i think we should aim to have the 1.1 release work w/ 3.2.3 and then worry about moving to 3.2.4 compatibility.
