Deprecated Media Repository Method Removed

The following method which was deprecated in 2009 has been removed from nl.gx.webmanager.cms.mediarepository.MediaRepository:

int copyMediaItem(MediaItemVersion mediaItem);

JBoss upgrade

From R34 onwards, JBoss 7.2 EAP is the supported JBoss version. JBoss 7.2 EAP and higher incorporates JDK 11 support. In order to upgrade, download the JBoss 7.2.0 EAP application server from https://developers.redhat.com/products/eap/download. See https://access.redhat.com/articles/2026253 for the supported configurations. In order to run XC on the JBoss application platform, use the standalone.xml and standalone.conf delivered with the XC SDK. For more information, see the updated JBoss information on the Linux Server Installation page.

MySQL Connector Upgrade

• In R34, the version of the MySQL connector has been upgraded from version 5.1.23 to 8.0.26. In version 8.0.23, changes were made to the way that MySQL handles time zones and dates. The method getObject(columnindex) now returns a LocalDateTime rather than a String for any date/time columns, therefore any custom code that implements this method should be checked and modified if necessary.
• A second change in the connector is the way time zone conversions are handled. In order to keep these settings the same as they were before the changes in version 8.0.23, the following parameter should be added to the
  connection URL in the connectionTimeZone=<server> parameter in the Tomcat server.xml . For example:
  
  Before:
  
  jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/webmanager9?autoReconnect=true
  
  After:
  
  jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/webmanager9?autoReconnect=true&amp:connectionTimeZone=<server>
  
  In the second example above, note that &amp: is used instead of &.
