[PLAN] Release Struts RC2 with FileUpload RC1
I've posted an updated Release Plan to reflect the consensus we reached
on RC2. I'm going to work on the struts-legacy release first make the
necessary adjustments to the build. Then, I'll start on the tests
gauntlet for RC2, so that I can cut the actual release first thing
tomorrow morning.
Accordingly, if there is no objection, the codebase will freeze at
midnight tonight.
The one non-enchancement issue is
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19911
I pinged Cedric, and if nothing else comes up, I'll mark it LATER and
then reopen it against the nightly build after RC2 ships.
Everything else is marked Enhancement, and so I added that clause to the
Release Plan.
-Ted.

Re: [VOTE] Convert RC2 to Beta 5
Posted by Vic Cekvenich <vi...@baseBeans.com>.
(Thanks Ted and others comitters CVSing fixes (David, Martin) for
donating yet another weekend to Struts, either way).
My comprehension (not again.... Its not flamey this time) is this:
Ted can release today under Beta 5 beta as is (with the known failed
test) with all the work he did. Plus for this side is... who knows when
is the next time a release will come, and no release for Java One?, that
was the motivation here. So it's a step sideways to go forward. +1 means
release Today, that is how I read it. It's just a name.
Else... someone else (who has tech. skills/experience of Ted) has to
step forward, at another time to fix and build and release. So if you
look at it as beta vs RC 2... it seems RC2! But when, a week? A month?
What about the work done last few days? So a - 1 means.... wait.
If you say, hey, lets release something! that works and passes most
tests in how it's used, and lets move towards final then ... beta 5.
+0 for B5.

Frankly, since these seem to be problems in the tests and demo
applications, rather than in the base code, I'd be -1 on this. Going to
a beta 5 seems to me to be a unnecessary step unless the problem is in
the actual core libraries themselves.

[VOTE] Convert RC2 to Beta 5
Posted by Ted Husted <hu...@apache.org>.
In final testing of RC2, some compatibility issues have been found
between Tomcat 3.3.1 and the struts-exercise-taglib application as well
as the tiles-documentation application.
Martin Cooper has been looking into the problems and has found that for
the struts-exercise-taglibs cookie test, it is the
<jsp:getProperty name="sess" property="name"/>
expression that is failing.
The <jsp:getProperty> tags earlier on the page succeeded. The only
difference seems to be that the earlier ones all have setters as well as
getters in the Tomcat CookieFacade class, whereas there is only a getter
for 'name'. So this actually looks like some kind of JSP/reflection bug,
not related to Struts. (The <bean:cookie> tag must have worked, because
we know the <jsp:getProperty> tag is trying to access a cookie!)
Also, the (rather complex) comparison test is killing the JVM when run
under TC3.
In the Tiles application, servlet exceptions are being noted. One
example is the extendedDefinitionTag page, but there may be others.
Unless fixes to these problems are immediately forthcoming, I propose
that we document the issues and release Stuts 1.1 beta 5.
By getting this milestone out to the community, we would have a better
chance of resolving the remaining issues so that we can go to Struts
1.1. final as soon as possible
This proposal has my +1.
-Ted.

I also want to mention that I do appreciate all the work people have put
into moving most of our core components over to the Commons. While it
slowed the release of this particular product down, I do believe it is
helping to accelerate work by the rest of the Java community.
The Java community now has at their disposal production-quality releases
of packages like the BeanUtils, Collections, Digester, FileUpload,
Validator, not to mention Lang and Logging, along with many others we
never dreamed of when the Commons was founded. I'm seeing these packages
crop up in products all over the net as well as in applications created
by in-house teams. (Which, after all, is the point of the exercise!)
Bootstrapping the Commons is in itself a much greater accomplishment
that any release of Struts could ever be. The ASF agrees, and based on
the success of the Commons has started its own top level project
(http://commons.apache.org/).
Of course, it would have been nice if we could have moved the packages
over and managed to ship interim releases too, but hindsight is always
20:20. =:0)
So, we didn't finish the work on Resources before 1.1, but there is
always 1.2. In the end, I hope that Struts becomes a true
component-based framework, showing just one way that all the "cool
tools" in the Commons can play well together.
-Ted.

Just curious, in the releaes plan under "The plan" it has the following
line:
Therefore, the following release plan is proposed for Struts 1.1 Release
Candidate 1:
Should this be "Release Candidate 2" ?
If not, sorry for the noise.

I've posted an updated Release Plan to reflect the consensus we reached
on RC2. I'm going to work on the struts-legacy release first make the
necessary adjustments to the build. Then, I'll start on the tests
gauntlet for RC2, so that I can cut the actual release first thing
tomorrow morning.
Accordingly, if there is no objection, the codebase will freeze at
midnight tonight.
The one non-enchancement issue is
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19911
I pinged Cedric, and if nothing else comes up, I'll mark it LATER and
then reopen it against the nightly build after RC2 ships.
Everything else is marked Enhancement, and so I added that clause to the
Release Plan.
