| <h1>Apache Axis2 @axisVersion@ Release Notes</h1> |
| |
| <h2>About this version</h2> |
| |
| 1.5.1 is a maintenance release to fix several key problems in |
| the 1.5 release. |
| |
| <h2>Changes since 1.5</h2> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li>Fix for the dreaded "CLOSE_WAIT" problem (JIRA issues 935, 2883, etc). We now share an instance of HTTPClient across each ConfigurationContext (i.e. each Axis2 server or ServiceClient) - connection reuse is now automatic. This means <b>the REUSE_HTTP_CLIENT flag is no longer necessary or useful, nor is creating your own MultithreadedHttpConnectionManager</b>.</li> |
| <li>Transport deployer is now actually functional, and getListenerManager() in ConfigurationContext now creates a new LM if there isn't one already.</li> |
| <li>Fix for AXIS2-4034, module versions now support real versions like "1.5.1"</li> |
| <li>NPE problem (see AXIS2-4114) fixed in MessageContext while retrieving policy.</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h4>Known Issues and Limitations in the @axisVersion@ Release:</h4> |
| <p><i>Please see JIRA</i></p> |

| |
| <h2>About Axis2</h2> |
| |
| <p>Apache Axis2 is a complete re-design and re-write of the widely used |
| Apache Axis engine and is a more efficient, more scalable, more modular |
| and more XML-oriented Web services framework. It is carefully designed to |
| support the easy addition of plug-in "modules" that extend its |
| functionality for features such as security and reliability.</p> |
| |
| <p>Modules supporting WS-Security/Secure-Conversation (Apache Rampart), |
| WS-Trust (Apache Rahas), WS-Reliable Messaging (Apache Sandesha) and |
| WS-Eventing (Apache Savan) are available via the Apache Web Services |
| project. Please see the individual subproject sites for further information.</p> |
| |
| <h2>Feedback</h2> |
| |
| <p>We are striving for a simple and happy first time user experience as well as a |
| satisfying experienced user experience with this release. We welcome any |
| and all feedback at:</p> |
