Seam 2.1.2.CR1
It's been a few months, and we're finally close enough on Seam 2.1.2 to push CR1 out for you guys. We don't have a ton of new features this time around. Instead, we've focussed primarily on bug fixes, stability and minor enhancments, with 165 JIRA items cleared. I'd really like to thank the Seam community as a whole for the participation levels we've seen in this release. We've seen an increase in the quality of the JIRA requests and an even bigger increase in the number of issues with patches and test cases. Seeing open source work is a beautiful thing.
In the last few weeks I had to migrate a MySQL database and it turned out to be more difficult than I thought. In the past I've used the tools that ship with MySQL, such as mysqldump and its various options. For the recent migrations that was surprisingly... impossible.
What, you didn't think it was possible? Of course it is! Although the Seam development team encourages you to use Hibernate as the JPA provider, Seam is capable of working with any JPA provider. This entry will show you how.
On Thursday, April 9th I will be presenting an introduction and preview of Java Server Faces 2.0 at the New England Java Users Group (NEJUG). The talk will be given at Sun's Burlington Massachusetts campus.
