With eXo JCR 1.16+ now included in JBoss Portal 6.2, the product no longer depends on JBoss Cache (any version) and jgroups 2.6. Infinispan replaces these two technologies.

Description Martin Weiler 2013-10-17 11:06:00 UTC
Description of problem:
The JPP 6.1.0 layer adds the following binaries from EAP 5:
- modules/system/layers/gatein/org/jboss/cache/main/jbosscache-core-3.2.7.GA.jar
- modules/system/layers/gatein/jgroups/gatein/jgroups-2.6.22.Final.jar

JBoss Cache has been replaced by Infinispan in EAP 6, and JGroups 2.x by JGroups 3.2

JPP 6 should no longer add the JBoss Cache and JGroups 2.x binaries and use the binaries from underlying EAP 6 instead for easier supportability.

Comment 1 Jared MORGAN 2013-10-17 20:41:47 UTC
Obviously, this will have a documentation impact. We will need to sanitize the docs of any JBoss Cache content completely, and assess old JGroups content for relevance. 

We'll need to get hold of Infinispan and JGroups 3.2 content. Or reference this content from other products.

Comment 4 Peter Palaga 2014-04-24 06:41:05 UTC
I have just checked that the following two jars are not there anymore as of JBoss Portal 6.2.0.ER1:
- modules/system/layers/gatein/org/jboss/cache/main/jbosscache-core-3.2.7.GA.jar
- modules/system/layers/gatein/jgroups/gatein/jgroups-2.6.22.Final.jar

Comment 5 Tomas Kyjovsky 2014-05-22 18:15:11 UTC
Verified in 6.2.0.ER2.
