    JBoss AS vs. JBoss EAP

    channell

      Hi,

       

      It doesn't make much sense that the community edition doesn't provide bug fixes and patches. But couldn't I just download the latest source version and build it myself with the fixes included? Glassfish seems like a better alternative.

       

      Thanks,

      Lamar

          Yes you can. You have to identify the issue that you want to be fixed and then get the patch from the JIRA/svn commits and apply it locally and build it.

            Thanks for the response. Is there an easy way to query JIRA to find bug fixes that affect a single release version? For example, I want to find all bug fixes that pertain to JBoss AS 5.1.0GA.

              Search for issues marked with "Affects Version" JBossAS-5.1.0.GA https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBAS. Note that it won't be a complete set for various reasons. For example, JBoss AS is composed of many sub projects like EJB3 which have their own issue tracking project in JIRA and different version naming scheme.
