| Release Notes -- Apache Jackrabbit -- Version 1.2.3 |
| |
| Introduction |
| ------------ |
| |
| Apache Jackrabbit is a fully conforming implementation of the Content |
| Repository for Java Technology API (JCR). A content repository is a |
| hierarchical content store with support for structured and unstructured |
| content, full text search, versioning, transactions, observation, and |
| more. Typical applications that use content repositories include content |
| management, document management, and records management systems. |
| |
| Apache Jackrabbit 1.2.3 is patch release with bug fixes for issues like |
| correctly reporting the number of access controlled query results and |
| proper cleanup after indexing PDF documents. See below for the complete |
| list of changes. |
| |
| See the Apache Jackrabbit website at http://jackrabbit.apache.org/ for more |

| |
| The main source archive contains a "jackrabbit-1.2.3-src" directory |
| with the full released source code and build environment. Use the |
| following commands (or the equivalent in your system) to build all |
| the released components with Maven 2: |
| |
| $ jar xf jackrabbit-1.2.3-src.jar |
| $ cd jackrabbit-1.2.3-src |
| $ mvn install |

| external runtime dependencies are only included for the war and rar |
| archives. Other dependencies can be downloaded either manually or |
| automatically using the Maven build system. |
| |
| Each release file is accompanied by SHA1 and MD5 checksums and a PGP |
| signature. The public key used for the signatures can be found |
| in the KEYS file located in the parent directory. |
| |
| Upgrading from previous 1.x releases |
| ------------------------------------ |
| |
| Apache Jackrabbit 1.2.x is fully compatible with the previous 1.x releases. |
| A previous Apache Jackrabbit 1.x installation can be upgraded by replacing |
| the relevant jar files with the new versions (see below). No changes to |
| repository contents are needed. |
| |
| The most notable effect of the component restructuring in this release is |
| that the previous jackrabbit-core component has been split in three pieces: |
| jackrabbit-api, jackrabbit-jcr-commons, and jackrabbit-core. Thus you need |
| to replace the previous jackrabbit-core-1.x.jar file with the three new |
| jar archives. |
| |
| The structure of the WebDAV components have also changed. WebDAV support |
| now consists of the webapp component jackrabbit-webapp and the libraries |
| jackrabbit-webdav and jackrabbit-jcr-server. |
| |
| The Apache Lucene dependency used for full text indexing has been upgraded |
| to version 2.0 in this release. Lucene 2.0 is able to continue using |
| existing index files, but you can also manually recreate the index with |
| Lucene 2.0 extensions by removing the "index" directories of a closed |
| repository. Jackrabbit will automatically re-index content when the |
| repository is next started. |
| |
| Also the Apache Derby dependency has been upgraded to version 10.2. |
| Like Lucene, the new Derby version can keep using existing database files. |
| New repositories and workspaces will however be created using extensions |
| and improvements introduced in the 10.2 version. |
