Chapter 3. Deprecated features


The following features are being deprecated in this release.

Red Hat is deprecating the CXF and Hibernate JAR files that are currently available in the JBoss Web Server repository, which you can download as jboss-web-server-5.7.x-maven-repository.zip from the Red Hat Customer Portal. Red Hat will remove the CXF and Hibernate JAR files from jboss-web-server-X.X.x-maven-repository.zip in a future release.

In the JBoss Web Server 5.7 and 5.8 releases, Red Hat will continue to provide CXF and Hibernate JAR files in jboss-web-server-5.X.x-maven-repository.zip, but Red Hat does not provide any further updates to these JAR files except for any possible security fixes.

Note

In JBoss Web Server 5.7 and future versions, Red Hat will continue to provide and maintain CXF and Hibernate JAR files in the Red Hat hosted Maven repository, which you can access at https://maven.repository.redhat.com/ga/.

Apache CXF is a framework that you can use to build and develop services that use front-end application programming interfaces (APIs) such as JAX-WS and JAX-RS. Hibernate ORM is an object-relational mapping framework that you can use to connect JBoss Web Server to Java database connectivity (JDBC) data sources.
