what happended to the JBoss Remoting 2.2 GA download link

[bord]

anyone know where the JBoss Remoting 2.2 GA downloads are? I had this downloaded a couple of weeks ago, but now all I see is the JBoss Remoting 2.0 GA download.

thanks

Where are you looking? The jboss-remoting.jar is at http://repository.jboss.com/jboss/remoting/, and the source is at
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=22866&package_id=135729.

ok thanks Ron. I found it

actually Ron I think I had been to this site and there is only a "lib" directory and no source. Sometime back i had downloaded the 2.2 GA of everything source, libs, samples, etc.

Look in http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=22866&package_id=135729 for the zip file with source, docs, etc.

It is missing from the labs site.

Click on "jboss.org" link you see in the top banner - then navigate to the Jboss remoting downloads and all u see r the ones up to 2.0.GA. nothing later:

http://labs.jboss.com/jbossremoting/downloads

BTW: I see that JBossAS 4.2.CR2 has Remoting 2.0.GA in it but 4.2.GA now has 2.2.SP4.

That's a huge change (for me anyway) just going from the last candidate release to the GA version.

Why was this decision made and can I assume everything will be backward compatible with things that used to work with 4.2.CR2 and remoting 2.0.0.GA???

Hi John,

JBossMessaging depends on Remoting 2.2.0, and JBoss ESB depends on JBM. They argued in favor of JBossAS 4.2 adopting Remoting 2.2.0 to avoid scoping in JBM, and they carried the day. The original release of Remoting 2.2.0 was not wire compatible with 2.0.0, and the point of 2.2.0.SP4 was to compensate for that incompatibility. A client or server running 2.2.0.SP4 can be configured to talk to version 2.0.0 by setting the system property "jboss.remoting.version", in particular, -Djboss.remoting.version=2.

The 2.2.0.SP4 jboss-remoting.jar can be found at http://repository.jboss.com/jboss/remoting/2.2.0.SP4/lib/.
