java/wildfly discussion

[horst leitenmueller]

hi all, 

i'm using also the old versions because of stability of these, also if not supported. problem is that the new versions are different and it's impossible to change  all few month's the version (and reconfigure everything), i have also running versions 4.x and 5.x.
also if compliance is written this is not true (just an example: small changes in security can bring a project to fail very fast, means the dependencies of the jar files which are used to compile)

at the moment the versions are

9.0.2 Final 15/10
9.0.1 Final 15/07/23
9.0.0 Final 15/07/02

8.2.1 Final 15/07
8.2.0 Final 14/11
8.1.0 Final 14/05

Start was 2013

my question is it hurting to keep them in the svn ? better would be a subdirectory for ever major release and subdirectories for the minor releases

like /usr/ports/java/
    wildfly9/
                 wildfly9-current        for the very optimistic once's
                 wildfly9.0.1 
                 wildfly9.0.2 
    wildfly8/

i also would keep it about 3 years than a deprecation and later deletion can be done… 

and really I’m working with jboss 2000 / and then with wildfly and it never worked to upgrade without problems en recompilation/remerging/reconfiguriing of the running apps

i have seen there are packages for upgrade from 9.0.1 to 9.0.2 for example, but i’m not sure if would be easy to integrate this into the ports system ?! this would be another chance to resolve too much ports
(but also with the same problems apps running on the app server will fail… )
