Grouper v1.4.2

Release v1.4.2 includes the following fixes and improvements:

5-June-2009

To upgrade from v1.4.1 grouper to v1.4.2, follow these instructions: (note the change log)

Generally all you need to upgrade from 1.4.1 to 1.4.2 is the new grouper jars: grouper.jar, grouper-ws.jar, etc.  You will need to build the UI.  There are some config file changes that you should merge so you have up to date documentation in the config files, though all new config file changes should be optional.  You can enable caching in the API for improved performance.

Grouper
  • 2009/6/4: v1.4.2 GROUPER_1_4_BRANCH:
    • compare sources.xml with sources.example.xml.  Get new section on improved jdbc source.  If you are interested in improving the free-form subject search (e.g. from UI), switch to new subject adapter based on example: GrouperJdbcSourceAdapter2
    • compare grouper.properties with grouper.example.properties: get new loader hook and org management section (can be commented out).
    • compare ldappc.xml with ldappc.example.xml, get list-empty-value documentation
  • 2009/4/25: v1.4.2 GROUPER_1_4_BRANCH:set this to true in grouper.hibernate.properties:
    hibernate.cache.use_query_cache       = true
    Compare and merge the new ehcache.example.xml with ehcache.xml.  There are stem/group/member caches defined
Grouper-ui
  • 2009/6/4: v1.4.2 GROUPER_1_4_BRANCH: compare your media.properties with the new media.properties, get new settings
  • 2009/04/11: v1.4.2 (GROUPER_UI_V1_4_BRANCH): there is now a grouper-ui.jar, so do a clean build (or delete the deployed WEB-INF/classes/edu dir), and use the new grouper-ui.jar, and the new struts.jar)
Grouper client
