Codehaus Cargo 1.10.8 is here!
Dear Codehaus Cargo enthusiasts
As we are leaving the first half of 2023 behind us, it is time to introduce you to a new release of Codehaus Cargo, version 1.10.8. This version comes with many background changes (particularly, upgrades of build plugins, as well as a brand new Continous Integration), as well as two notable changes:
Containers - WildFly:
[CARGO-1606] - Add support for WildFly 28.x
Extensions - Ant tasks:
[CARGO-1608] - NPE in the Ant tasks when setting container configuration properties using Ant build properties due to cargo logger created too late
The ones who go into the details would also notice - This release has been performed from a machine running Windows. Indeed, sadly, after many years of excellent experience with Apple, I was very much disappointed by how my last MacBook Pro gave up on me (or, on its USB-C port), Apple’s inability to repair the machine and their unwillingness give me access to the data my hard drive (through a closed design involving switching over the pins of the PCIe SSD drive). I hence took the opportunity to wave goodbye to Apple’s technologies, and move over to a Surface Pro (which finally gives me the freedom of a tablet on a device which accepts to run as a fully fledged computer). Hence, for the foreseeable future, releases will happen on Windows - Of course, our powerful Continous Integration system will keep on testing many different OSes, JDKs and containers.
To upgrade to this latest version:
Users of the Maven 3 plugin simply need to use the Codehaus Cargo plugin version 1.10.8
Users of the Java API can download the new Uberjar from https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/codehaus/cargo/cargo-core-uberjar/1.10.8/cargo-core-uberjar-1.10.8.jar
Similarly, users of the Ant tasks can download the new Ant tasks from https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/codehaus/cargo/cargo-ant/1.10.8/cargo-ant-1.10.8.jar
Finally, the ones who want to see the Cargo Daemon can get it from https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/codehaus/cargo/cargo-daemon-webapp/1.10.8/cargo-daemon-webapp-1.10.8.war and either use the WAR directly as an executable JAR or as a WAR file deployed on another Web container
Enjoy!
