Finally, TorqueBox 1.0.0.Beta19 is out.
Go download it and read the documentation.
This release first and foremost includes an update to being based upon JBoss AS 6.0.0 milestone 2. To accomplish the upgrade, we’ve reworked the Maven-based build system to be linked at the elbow with the core JBoss AS build.
Additionally, on top of that, in fact, quite exceptionally, TorqueBox now uses JBoss HornetQ to power it’s messaging. Even regular JBoss AS doesn’t do that yet.
This release also sees some major changes and improvements to not just asynchronous tasks, but MQ integration in general. Be sure to check out the documentation, as new features have been added and APIs have changed some. That’s why we call it beta.
The next release will focus on some much-needed internal cleanup, a documentation refresh, and perhaps an examination of Rails 3. So far, this release ships with Rails 2.3.4.
This is what JIRA thinks we’ve accomplished:
Bug
- TORQUE-57 - ActionController::send_data and send_file fail quietly
- TORQUE-59 - Queue payloads object to complex objects
