Thanks for taking the time to test this patch, and providing us with your logs.

Hi Jesper,

Some questions/observations:

1. Do you know when the patch you provided, ironjacamar-core-impl.jar, will be available in the nightly snapshots?  

2. We haven't tested a lot with JBoss releases prior to 7.1.1 but may in the near future (say JBoss 5).   Do you know if this issue exists in prior releases and if so, are patches such has this backported?

3. In one of our test runs, we saw a NPE in the JBoss code when shutting down the JBoss server.   See attached server.log and search for "NullPointerException"

4. An observation from one of our developers from looking at our RA tracing.    It appears JBoss is still violating the JCA spec by not immediately delisting in response to ConnectionEventListener.connectionClosed.  (It's deferring it until just before the commit.).

For #4, our RA is compatable with JBoss so this isn't an open issue for us.  Just sharing since some day in the future more validation checks may be added or some other vendor's RA might run into this.

That's a bug. Can you please file a JIRA for this under the EJB component? I can do it myself but since you are the one who found this out, you might want to have it opened in your name.

We want the fix available in jboss 7, can you describe in detail how to get and apply the patch? Thanks.

[jesper.pedersen]

Use WildFly 8.1.0.CR1+ -- there is no community support for JBossAS 7.x anymore; it is old anyway.

Jesper,

Thanks for your quick response. Some further questions:

1. Do you think the same issue exist in jboss 6? Is there still community support for jbossAS 6?

2. This issue will affect transactional outbound operations, but not inbound, is that true?

[jesper.pedersen]

JBossAS 6.x is even older   If you are looking for stability on EE 5 / EE 6 platform buy a JBoss EAP subscription.

Inbound is different, as the MessageEndpointFactory takes care of that - http://www.ironjacamar.org/doc/userguide/1.2/en-US/html/ch01.html#overview_inbound
