GlassFish V2 UR2 in RC2 is different from the one that was in 6.5RC1 and 6.5 Beta (likely in 6.1 as well). In fact it is ML (multilingual) version - but that differs from the English one (in 6.5RC and Beta). So I`d say everything is by design. I leave the issue open for future (and make it the enhancement) to treat both En and ML versions the same in terms of installation status (installed or not). Oh, so that's why NB RC2's filename has "-ml" in it. I did wonder about that. As an alternative approach, perhaps the installer screen should simply include the "ML" in the GF runtime's version string on the first page? That way, even if it still wants to install to the same path by default, I'd have realised it was different from the existing installation... In the meantime, and rapidly drifting off topic, does RC2 have any particular dependency on the ML version or should I be okay in principle to exclude GF2 from the installation and just configure a server entry for the existing installation once it's done? (obviously, any issues I encounter with that setup I'd raise separately under the Glassfish module rather than this one) Given you're suggesting to treat them as equivalent with regard to installed status, I assume not. Is the bundled version of Glassfish fully patched as compared to Sun's production version? I'm wondering if developers need to go grab the production version for the patch fixes or use the NetBeans bundled version. Perhaps the name should have the build number in it as a default? No, it is the FCS version of GlassFish V2 UR2 (b04, not the patch4). https://glassfish.dev.java.net/downloads/v2ur2-b04.html Afaik the latest "patch" version of Sun distribution is available only for customers with paid support. http://blogs.sun.com/theaquarium/entry/gfv2u2_patch_4_now_available When do the bug fixes in the production release get merged back into the the development version? Does this b58 version have the patch 4 sets applied: https://glassfish.dev.java.net/servlets/NewsItemView?newsItemID=6635 You`d better ask at the glassfish mailing lists than in NetBeans IssueZilla :) I have an anwser to neither of your two questions, maybe Vince (CC-ed) knows. sorry. The way fixes flow from the support/sustaining group back to the dev trunk is something I do not track... The fixes from patch 4 may be in the dev build... but I kind of doubt it... *** Issue 153467 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** *** Issue 160582 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** Should be fixed in http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/cafb75f70851 *** Issue 160989 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** |
