Seam 2.1.2

What would be the recommended way to upgrade from 2.1.1 to 2.1.2

Is there an easy way to tell what JAR's changed?

You should update all the Seam JARs. I don't have a list of the 3rd party library JAR changes, but off hand I can't think of any that were critical version updates, so I don't think you'd have any problems if you don't take the time to update them.

thank you very much for your hard work.

In my maven pom.xml I had to set javassist version to 3.8.0.GA in order to make my project start.

I red somewhere that Seam 2.1.2 should be much more fast in integration testing, maybe because it initializes seam runtime only once and not once per test.

Can you confirm?

This has been the case since Seam 2.1...

Is there a specific reason why there is no .GA suffix?

The MetaWidget integration looks cool; has anyone used MetaWidget with Seam and RichFaces?

Reason for version name convention discussed here.

diff 1.jar 2.jar ?!

Sorry, that was meant in reply to comment 1 but somehow it got screwed.

I apologize using this forum to report a possible error. I am posting this here because there is no open 2.1.x version in JIRA.

I think there is an error in Query.getCountEjbql() SUBJECT_PATTERN expression. I have an app. that was working fine in 2.1.1 and now report "invalid select clause for query". The reason of this problem is because my queries projetcs more than one field:

select a.field1, a.field2, a.field3.field1 from anyEntity a...

Is this the expected behavior? JPA allows projection, didn't it?

Thanks in advance!

I've found a JIRA issue (JBSEAM-4087) about this problem. I apologize again for my post here. I'll keep track of this in JIRA.

Anyway, it is worth to mention that the way this is now breaks Seam 2.1.1 users code. I won't be able to upgrade to 2.1.2 because of this :( but I'm sure it will be fixed soon. You guys are doing a very good work. Thank you all.

Is Seam 2.1.2 bundling RichFaces 3.3.0? I'm trying to use Seam 2.1.2 and RichFaces 3.3.1.GA, but my deployment keeps failing - saying it's looking for richfaces-api-3.3.0.jar. I've never had this problem before and I've upgraded both Seam and RichFaces many times. I can't find anything that is requesting RF 3.3.0, so is it Seam?

Is anyone addressing the navigation issues using pages.xml or .page.xml? Ever since 2.1 navigation is very broken.

Thanks.

Seam 2.1 uses RichFaces 3.2, so no, it's not Seam.

Michael, a link to your bug report for the navigation issue?

I don't understand your reference to Richfaces. Ever since 2.1 Seam navigation is broken. I have removed all references to redirects to /home.xhtml and after login is still goes to this page. I need a another page before home.xhtml based on a condition and cannot get it to happen no matter what I try.

I am using the latest IceFaces if that has anything to do with this.

Thanks.

Hi Peter,

this subject is not scheduled to any new version of Seam. IMHO, this problem is quite serious because it breaks any code that uses projected attributes in EJBQL, something the specification permits. The estimate time to fix it is only 2 hours. Could you consider the possibility to add the fix of this issue to 2.2.0.GA list? There is only 5 items now.

Thanks in advance,

Gilson

I can get seam from sourceforge, it seems that SF is broken after its make up. Can someone put somewhere else? I want to give a try. Thanks.
