Testing 2.1.0 Beta2

[dfisher]

I pulled the 2.1.0 beta2 jars from the jboss maven repository for some testing in JBoss 5.1.0 and I get the following error:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReferenceFieldUpdater.lazySet(Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;)V
    at org.hornetq.utils.concurrent.HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue$Node.lazySetItem(HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue.java:187)
    at org.hornetq.utils.concurrent.HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue$Node.<init>(HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue.java:167)
    at org.hornetq.utils.concurrent.HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue.<init>(HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue.java:219)

Not to be deterred, I pull the source from svn and running `ant distro` produces four compile errors, one of which is:

HornetQ_2_1_0_Beta2/src/main/org/hornetq/utils/concurrent/HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue.java:187: cannot find symbol
    [javac] symbol  : method lazySet(org.hornetq.utils.concurrent.HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue.Node<E>,E)
    [javac] location: class java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReferenceFieldUpdater<org.hornetq.utils.concurrent.HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue.Node,org.hornetq.utils.concurrent.HornetQConcurrentLinkedQueue.Node>
    [javac]          itemFieldUpdater.lazySet(this, val);

Am I missing some jars or were the maven beta2 jars produced with a different classpath than what is provided by the ant build?

Thanks.

We have been using java 1.6 on 2.1.

Are you also doing it?

[dfisher]

Compiling with 1.6 allowed me to build the distro, thanks.

I noticed that the build properties set source and target for java 1.5.

Do you expect the 2.1.0 release to run under java 1.5?

From the next release, HornetQ will require Java 6 or later.

This is really following the lead of JBoss Application Server 6, which already is Java 6 only.

[timfox]

I'll update the build.properties

Will there be a possibility to run HornetQ standalone (with Java 6) and  have some clients running with Java 5 connected?
