<h2><a name="s3.1"></a>3.1 What is new in Squeeze?</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
The information in this chapter is probably out of date as Squeeze is not yet
|
||
released and changes rapidly.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Squeeze ships with OpenJDK 6 and its IcedTea patches 1.8. The default ant
|
||
version is 1.8 but there is a compatibility package with version 1.7.
|
||
Java-common has switched to OpenJDK as the default-jdk on most architectures.
|
||
Squeeze has updated GCJ to version 4.4. The new Debian Orbital Alignment Team
|
||
has updated Eclipse to version 3.5.2.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Squeeze ships a fully working Tomcat 6 and Jetty 5 but both Glassfish and
|
||
JBossAS 4 are still incomplete. Thanks to OpenJDK and the switch to OpenJDK as
|
||
the default JDK even more Java packages in the contrib component (e.g.
|
||
Hibernate 3) could be moved to main.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Maven has been updated to version 2.2 and it is accompanied by new helper
|
||
packages: maven-repo-helper, maven-debian-helper, and several Maven plugins.
|
||
It is now possible to build Debian packages with Maven because Debian has its
|
||
own repository of POM files.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<hr>
|
||
|
||
<h2><a name="s3.2"></a>3.2 What are the most important changes in the Java policy?</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
The -gcj packages are now deprecated but we keep them if the are good reason.
|
||
The virtual package java-virtual-machine is gone and packages must not depend
|
||
or recommend java-virtual-machine. Please check the policy for more details.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Javadoc packages are now expected to link their javadoc against system
|
||
installed javadocs. This means that javadocs will now provide local links
|
||
instead of remote links. Javadoc packages will recommend on other javadoc
|
||
packages; this will install the dependency docs by default, but allow users to
|
||
avoid installing a lot of large javadoc packages (e.g. by asking APT to not
|
||
include recommends).
|
||
