Summary: New features, improvements, fixed issues and known issues in GigaSpaces 6.6.X. The latest version is 6.6.5 (build 3320) GA date: 3rdth of August 2009.
Overview
Below is a list of new features, improvements, fixed issues, and known issues in GigaSpaces 6.6.X. The latest version is 6.6.5 (build 3320) GA date: 3rd of August 2009, which is a Service pack on top of 6.6.0.
All features, improvements, and fixed issues are marked according to the release that they were released/fixed in, e.g. 6.6.0, or the service pack in which they were added e.g. 6.6.5.
When upgrading any GigaSpaces version (including previous 6.6.X milestones) to version 6.6.X, compile your application code with the 6.6.5 GA (Build 3320).
6.6.X and 6.6.5 Backwards Compatibility Although it is recommended to use a complete 6.6.5 setup when upgrading GigaSpaces 6.6.X to latest 6.6.5, it is valid to mix setups of clients and servers from 6.6.X and 6.6.5 only.
Note that the issues listed here, are since the 6.5 GA. For previous issues, refer to the 6.5 Release Notes

to
"%DBLocation%\bin\mysqld-nt.exe" --standalone --console
b) Change the C# code of
Examples\StockSba\Tools\MySqlDb.CreateDbAndTables\Program.cs.
Change
if (!File.Exists(mySqlInstallBinDir + "\\bin mysqld.exe")) throws new ArgumentException("Illegal or wrong DB path, please check the DB path specified and try again.");
Process dbProcess = Process.Start(mySqlInstallBinDir + "\\bin mysqld.exe", "--standalone --console");

Supported Platforms for GigaSpaces 6.5.X and 6.6.X
You can run GigaSpaces on every operating system that supports the Java Platform Standard Edition technology – i.e., Windows , Linux x86, Linux AMD64 (Opteron), Sun Solaris, Hewlett Packard HP-UX, IBM AIX, Apple Mac OS/X, etc.
The list below represents only the platforms that have been tested by GigaSpaces.
GigaSpaces components (space, cluster of spaces, Processing Unit, GSM, GSC, LUS, Mahalo, GUI, CLI) can run only with the same GigaSpaces JARs (i.e., the same version and build number).
Mixing GigaSpaces Versions
The following is supported:
Applications built using 6.5.X run without any code changes on a clean 6.6.X installation.
The following is not supported:
Mixing clients/servers from different GigaSpaces Major Releases - Clients of 6.5.X do not run against 6.6.X servers. 6.6.X clients do not run against 6.5.X servers. 6.5.X servers do not communicate well with 6.6.X servers etc.
Mixing JDK Environments and GigaSpaces JARs
If you have GigaSpaces running with JDK 1.4 and another installation of GigaSpaces running with JDK 1.5/1.6, use the GigaSpaces JAR files from the earliest version – copy the JSpaces.jar and JSpaces-ui.jar files from the <GigaSpaces Root>\lib directory of your GigaSpaces 1.4 installation to the <GigaSpaces Root>\lib directory of your GigaSpaces 1.5/1.6 installation.

Known Issues with IBM 1.4
Due to a known bug in the JVM (see IZ19325):
the -Dcom.gs.transport_protocol.lrmi.connect_timeout system property should be set to 0, in all the Java IBM 1.4 processes.
Supported Operating Systems: Any operating system supported by .NET 2.0.
64 bit support: There are two separate packages of XAP.NET, one for 32-bits platforms and one for 64 bits. Make sure you get the correct one.
Installation
GigaSpaces XAP.NET is packaged as a standard Windows Installer package (.msi file). To start the installation simply double-click the msi file, and the installation wizard will pop up and guide you through the installation process.
During the installation you will be asked to choose a setup type. Selecting 'Complete' will install all the features in the default path (C:\GigaSpaces\XAP.NET 6.6.0). Selecting 'Custom' will allow you to customize the installation path, which features will be installed, and more. Detailed information about custom installation is available at Advanced Installation Scenarios.
C++ Interface
GigaSpaces C++ source code can be built on Linux and Windows 32bit or 64bit machines.
The current supported platforms and compilers are:
Linux
64bit – gcc.3.4.5
32bit – gcc.3.4.6
Windows
32/64bit C++ for VisualStudio 2005 (vs8.0)
32 C++ for VisualStudio 2003 (vs7.1)
Integrations with 3rd Party Products
The following products/projects were tested and certified using GigaSpaces 6.6:
When upgrading any GigaSpaces version (including previous 6.6.X milestones) to version 6.6.X, compile your application code with the 6.6.5 GA (Build 3320).
