This release of Apache Karaf is based off of the 2.1.x series branch, representing an update to Apache Karaf 2.1.5. It contains a few small bug fixes and improvements, including; updated branding-console documentation, a new warning on osgi:shutdown to avoid inadvertently shutting down the container, and a correction to the Oracle JDBC locking mechanism behavior when the locking table is empty.
To help make the transition from Apache Karaf 2.1.0/2.1.1/2.1.2/2.1.3/2.1.4/2.1.5 to 2.1.6 easier I've put together the following table of changed dependencies:
Karaf Version | 2.1.0 | 2.1.1 | 2.1.2 | 2.1.3 | 2.1.4 | 2.1.5 | 2.1.6 |
jetty.bundle.version | 6.1.22_2 | 6.1.25_1 | 6.1.25_1 | 6.1.25_1 | 6.1.25_1 | 6.1.25_1 | 6.1.25_1 |
junit.bundle.version | 4.7_1 | 4.7_2 | 4.7_2 | 4.7_2 | 4.7_2 | 4.7_2 | 4.7_2 |
slf4j.version | 1.4.3 | 1.4.3 | 1.4.3 | 1.5.8 | 1.5.8 | 1.5.8 | 1.5.8 |
spring.version* | 3.0.3 | 3.0.4 | 3.0.4 | 3.0.5 | 3.0.5 | 3.0.5 | 3.0.5 |
pax.exam.version | 1.2.2 | 1.2.2 | 1.2.2 | 1.2.3 | 1.2.3 | 1.2.3 | 1.2.3 |
pax.url.version | 1.1.3 | 1.1.3 | 1.2.1 | 1.2.4 | 1.2.4 | 1.2.4 | 1.2.4 |
pax.web.version | 0.7.3 | 0.7.3 | 0.7.4 | 0.7.4 | 0.7.4 | 0.7.4 | 0.7.4 |
felix framework | 3.0.2 | 3.0.2 | 3.0.2 | 3.0.2 | 3.0.2 | 3.0.9 | 3.0.9 |
For more information please see the release notes.
As discussed in my prior Apache Karaf 2.1.6 preparation post, I've taken in the Wreckhouse International Jazz and Blues Festival the last few days, and have sampled the François Pélissié Croix du Mayne Cahors 2008. I think that was a fitting end for such a great line of Apache Karaf. The source code is of course still available, and anyone needing to access it may find it in our SCM.
I'd like to take this time to thanks all of our contributors and users for all of their efforts and support during this branch. During it's time we've seen a major up swing in Karaf's adoption, with download rates steadily climbing. I look forward to enjoying even more successes with our community as Karaf 2.2.x and 3.x continue forward.
