Release Notes -- Apache Jackrabbit -- Version 1.0 Introduction ------------ The Apache Jackrabbit project is an effort to build and maintain an open source implementation of the Content Repository for Java Technology API (JCR) specified in the Java Specification Request 170 (JSR-170). Apache Jackrabbit 1.0 is a fully conforming and stable JSR-170 implementation. Developed from the same source tree as the JSR-170 reference implementation, the 1.0 release implements the full JCR API, including level 1, level 2, and all the optional features like versioning, transactions, and observation. See the Apache Jackrabbit website at http://jackrabbit.apache.org/ for more information. Release Contents ---------------- This release contains the main Jackrabbit implementation and a number of additional components. Each component is released as a source jar file and one or more compiled binary files. All files contain a README.txt file with more information. * jackrabbit-1.0-rc3-src.jar and jackrabbit-1.0-rc3.jar The main Jackrabbit implementation. * jackrabbit-commons-1.0-rc3.jar The general-purpose JCR utility library built from the main Jackrabbit source tree. * jackrabbit-jca-1.0-rc3-src.jar and jackrabbit-jca-1.0-rc3.rar JCA resource adapter for Jackrabbit. * jcr-server-1.0-rc3-src.jar, jcr-webdav-1.0-rc3.jar, jcr-client-1.0-rc3.jar, * jcr-server-1.0-rc3.jar, jackrabbit-server.war WebDAV network layer for the JCR API. * jcr-rmi-1.0-rc3-src.jar and jcr-rmi-1.0-rc3.jar RMI network layer for the JCR API. * jackrabbit-textfilters-1.0-rc3-src.jar and jackrabbit-textfilters-1.0-rc3.jar Collection of full text indexing filters for Jackrabbit. Includes filters for example for PDF and MS Excel, PowerPoint, and Word. Note that 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 0.9 ------------------ Due to a change in query functionality (JCR-257) a full rebuild of the full text indexes is required on existing content repositories when upgrading from the 0.9 release. Reindexing can be triggered by manually removing the index directories when the repository has been shut down.
