DataNucleus AccessPlatform 4.0 Release Notes

The 4.0 release of AccessPlatform is available under the Apache 2 license from our download page

Version 4.0 includes the following over 3.2/3.3

  • Runtime will still be supported as runnable for Java7+

  • Extend SchemaAwareStoreManager/SchemaTool to add createSchema/dropSchema

  • Upgrade ODF, Excel, HBase, MongoDB plugins to start using "persistable-identity"

  • Clean up NucleusContext "type" and maybe make NucleusContext an interface, and have PersistenceNucleusContext for persistence runtime. Means that we could also add a SchemaNucleusContext later on for schema tool(s)

  • Transaction savepoints - Basic API present in core, and supported in RDBMS (needs testing)

  • Clean up MetaDataManager and maybe make it an interface.

  • Move majority of schema operations from StoreManager to StoreSchemaHandler

  • Upgrade ASM to v5.0

  • Generalise TypeConverters so they can support conversion to multiple datastore column values and usable by all store plugins

  • Support Java8 (including javax.time - so build requirement for java8 plugin at least will be Java8)

  • Official support for Cassandra v1.2+

  • Upgrade relevant store plugins to use Table/Column structure and benefit from common features, for ODF, Excel, JSON, MongoDB, Neo4j, HBase

  • Upgrade enhancement process to enhance to org.datanucleus.enhancer.Persistable so that users need to have "datanucleus-core.jar" in the CLASSPATH and not "jdo-api.jar".

  • Drop EclipsePluginRegistry so all OSGi users should use OSGiPluginRegistry

  • Schema Evolution : restructure schema properties to allow for all we will need when adding/removing fields etc

  • JPA : no longer needs to have jdo-api.jar present

  • JPA : allow "native" query for Cassandra

  • Cassandra : support for native CQL queries via JDO or JPA

  • RDBMS : support for HikariCP and DBCP2 connection pools

  • RDBMS : ability to use single connection per PM/EM (rather than 1 for transactional operations, and 1 for non-transactional operations)

  • RDBMS : removed the need to create JavaTypeMapping classes when the user type has a TypeConverter

  • JSON : support for embedded 1-1 relation fields/properties

  • Excel/ODF/JSON/MongoDB/Neo4j/HBase/Cassandra : move to using "core" definition of table/columns meaning access to generalised features tested on other datastores


No further releases planned; commercial enquiries required.
