GigaSpaces 6.0 RC1 End of Life and Deprecation

                                               

Summary: End of life notice and deprecation in GigaSpaces 6.0 RC1 (build 1809).

JSpaces-dl.jar Removal

  • The JSpaces-dl.jar file has been removed. Implementation is used instead. Having the JSpaces-dl.jar in the same folder as the JSpaces.jar caused problems and confused users.

GigaSpaces and Service Grid CLI Consolidation

GigaSpaces CLI has been consolidated with the Service Grid CLI.

  • The gsServer shell has been removed - the gsInstance command is now used instead.
  • The following commands have been removed and can now be performed through the gs shell:
    • createSpace
    • gs_ant
    • js_java
    • list
    • multicastTest
    • ping
    • PlatformVersion
    • shutdown
    • startSpace
    • stopSpace
    • userAdministrator
    • cleanSpace
    • destroySpace

Phasing Out of Service Grid and Spring Modules

  • Phasing out of the Service Grid:
    • Pure service beans development and deployment is starting to phase out. Please use Open Spaces instead.
    • Collocated service bean association is deprecated and will not be supported.
  • Spring Modules has been deprecated (it is still supported). Please use Open Spaces instead.

API Changes

  • GS-1645 - The init(String) method signature located in com.j_spaces.core.filters.ISpaceUserAccountDriver interface has been changed.

Core

  • GS-1673 – Attribute support has been removed from IMap.
  • GS-1745 – RegExQuery is now consolidated with SQLQuery. For more details, refer to the SQLQuery in JavaSpaces.
  • The following com.j_spaces.core.IJSpaceContainer methods are now deprecated:
    public IJSpace getSpace(String spaceName, boolean embedded)  
    public IJSpace getClusteredSpace(String spaceName, boolean embedded)

    These have been replaced by:

    public IJSpace getSpace(String spaceName)
    public IJSpace getClusteredSpace(String spaceName)

.NET

  • Extended matching is not supported anymore (the functionality is available using SqlQuery).
