Revision 39 (Henning Blohm, 08.02.2015 17:37) → Revision 40/41 (Henning Blohm, 01.03.2015 21:11)

h1. Intro 

 This project is for the development of [[z2-environment:wiki|z2-environment]] version 3.0. 

 Version 3.0 is a major refactoring release of z2 with new repository code lines and complete package renaming. 

 Check out the roadmap at "roadmap":https://redmine.z2-environment.net/versions/27 

 h1. Essential Differences between v2.3 and v3. 

 * All the typical declarations and package names are no longer *com.zfabrik.<something>* but rather *org.z2env.<something>* 
 * The <z2 home> layout is completely new and more flexible 
 * The essential component types that can be _invoked_ from the core is *system state* and *main program*. 
 * While Jetty is still contained to support Eclipsoid and z2Unit, we support a pre-installed Tomcat as application container (and with TomEE would even get a Java EE profile) 
 * The core is lighter and more dedicated.  
 * There will be substantially less built-in application support like 
 ** a local JTA implementation  
 ** No worker suppport without a corresponding add-on. 

 The main task of v3 is: 
 * Make the lower parts of z2 more accessible and easier to understand: While z2 previously started System Centric, we now close the gap from the ordinary main program. 
 * Increase the OSS flavor of z2 

 Obvious TODOs: 

 
 * Test TomEE 
 * Fix Eclipsoid templates 
 * Support MVNCR, also for distributions
