7.0.0-M9

Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with the upcoming Jakarta EE 10, which is a new feature release. Jakarta EE 10 requires JDK 11 as a minimum, but also works on JDK 17.

Note: 7.0.0 M9 is a beta release, but containing final Jakarta EE 10 APIs.

GlassFish 7.0.0-M9 compiles on JDK 11 to JDK 19.

The binary glassfish-7.0.0-M9.zip runs on JDK 11 to JDK 19, but without MP Config.
The binaryglassfish-7.0.0-M9.1.zip runs on JDK 17 to JDK 19, with MP Config.

This release contains updated versions of the Jakarta EE 10 components and various other components.

Specifically new for this milestone release is a massive overhaul and cleanup of the DOL module (Deployment Object Library) fixing years of technical debt and updating various components. Only a few remaining dependent components are in an RC version now. Also included is an important security fix, kindly donated by luiseufrasio

NOTE: unfortunately a regression crept into this release causing MP Config to be excluded from the glassfish-7.0.0-M9.zip build. An extra binary was made available in response to this, glassfish-7.0.0-M9.1.zip, which however only works on JDK 17 and higher.

Full Changelog: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/glassfish/compar...

7.0.0-M2

Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with the upcoming Jakarta EE 10, which is a new feature release. Jakarta EE 10 requires JDK 11 as a minimum, but should also work on JDK 17.

Note: 7.0.0 M2 is an early alpha release demonstrating a number of early Jakarta EE 10 APIs. By far not everything works yet.

GlassFish 7.0.0-M2 compiles and runs on JDK 11 to JDK 18.

This release contains all the changes of Eclipse GlassFish 6.2.5, with in addition updated versions of all the Jakarta EE 10 components. Specifically new for this milestone release is Bean Validation working again, which didn't work at all in the previous milestone. Versions of Jakarta EE 10 components are now more accurately tracked at https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/glassfish/projects/3

The below gives an overview:

• Servlet 6.0
• Pages 3.1
• Faces 4.0
• CDI 4.0
• JAXB 4.0
• Persistence 3.1
• REST 3.1
• Batch 2.1
• Authorization 2.1
• Authentication 3.0
• And the implementation projects of these, such as WaSP, Mojarra, Weld, EclipseLink, Exousia etc.

6.2.5

Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with Jakarta EE 9.1, which is functionally identical to Jakarta EE 9, but runs on JDK 11. GlassFish also runs on JDK 17 and JDK 18ea.

GlassFish 6.2.5 updates and reenables a lot of tests that were disabled in previous versions (most after the GF 5 to 6 transition), once again improves JDK 17 compatibility (cases found by the new tests), fixes several bugs, and contains new versions of Hibernate Validator, Jackson and others.

GlassFish 6.2.5 compiles with JDK 11 to JDK 18ea.
