Source and Documentation Contributors

• Noah Arliss, Jonathan Knight, Paul Mackin, Brian Oliver, Patrick Peralta

Global and Cross-Module Changes

• Refactored all of the modules into a single source tree, with separate folders for each module and their associated examples.

• Restructured all of the modules follow standard Apache Maven conventions.

• Completely re-wrote the build system to use Apache Maven instead of Apache Ant.

• Ratified and released all of the modules under a standard open source license (CDDL). This included changing all file headers to use standard CDDL headers. Templates for these headers are available in the "documents" folder.

• Formalized the mechanism and process for accepting contributions.

• Completely migrated the existing "closed" Atlassian Confluence-based documentation to be part of the source tree, thus enabling contributions. This included re-writing and updating parts of the documentation for this release. The documentation can be found in the coherence-incubator-site module.

• Rationalized all modules to use a single Coherence Incubator version number instead of individual version numbers.

• Migrated the source repository to GitHub.

• Migrated the Issue Tracking to java.net.

• Introduced "uber" jar generation support to produce the entire Oracle Coherence Incubator in a single jar.

• Introduced (extracted) individual "example" modules for the patterns instead of using a single large example module.

• Introduced a dependency on the Oracle Tools project for tests. Re-wrote all process-based tests to use this package. This work was originally part of the Oracle Coherence Incubator but is now a separate project. This work now includes signficiant contributions from the "Grid Man" project (developed by Jonathan Knight).

• Upgraded projects to use Oracle Coherence 3.7.1.7

• Migrated binary distribution mechanism to use maven.java.net instead of download links.

coherence-incubator-all

• Introduced the ability to generate a coherence-incubator-all-x.y.z.jar that contains all of the Oracle Coherence Incubator compiled modules without third-party libraries and without Oracle Coherence itself. This allows developers to use a single jar file in applications instead of having to specify individual jars.

coherence-incubator-site (Documentation)

coherence-functorpattern

• No Changes

coherence-functorpattern-examples

• Introduced by extracting examples from Oracle Coherence Incubator 10.

• Refactored tests to use Oracle Tools.

• Introduced the new ParallelLocalCacheEventChannel providing the ability to update local caches in parallel across a cluster.

coherence-pushreplicationpattern
