Dear Codehaus Cargo enthusiasts

As most of us are getting ready to say goodbye to 2020, we are happy to announce our last Codehaus Cargo release for 2020, version 1.8.3. This new version comes with many improvements and some bug fixes:

• General

  • [CARGO-1535] - AbstractInstalledLocalContainer#addMemoryArguments is inconsistent with the boolean server parameter from AbstractInstalledLocalContainer#createJvmLauncher

• Containers - Jetty

  • [CARGO-1536] - Add support for Jetty 10.x.
    Jetty 10 has changed the "inner workings" of certain portions of Jetty, we hence have a new version of the Jetty Remote Deployer WAR only for Jetty 10.

  • [CARGO-1537] - Add support for Jetty 11.x.
    Jetty 11 marks the switch from to Jakarta EE, which implies that the primary package for all implemented APIs has changed from javax. to jakarta., we hence have a new version of the Jetty Remote Deployer WAR for Jetty 11 (onwards).

• Containers - GlassFish

  • [CARGO-1532] - Add support for GlassFish 6.x.

• Containers - Tomcat

  • [CARGO-1534] - Tomcat 8.x and onwards embedded local containers show a No global web.xml found error when starting

• Containers - WildFly

  • [CARGO-1531] - Add support for WildFly 21.x.

  • [CARGO-1538] - Add support for WildFly 22.x.

• Extensions - Maven 2 / Maven 3 plugin

  • [CARGO-1533] - Maven plug in ignores/erases proxy settings specified as system properties on the command line

To try out this latest version:

• Users of the Maven 2 / Maven 3 plugin simply need to use the Codehaus Cargo plugin version 1.8.3

• Users of the Java API can download the new Uberjar from https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/codehaus/cargo/cargo-core-uberjar/1.8.3/cargo-core-uberjar-1.8.3.jar

• Similarly, users of the ANT tasks can download the new ANT tasks from https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/codehaus/cargo/cargo-ant/1.8.3/cargo-ant-1.8.3.jar

• Finally, the ones who want to see the Cargo Daemon can get it from https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/codehaus/cargo/cargo-daemon-webapp/1.8.3/cargo-daemon-webapp-1.8.3.war and either use the WAR directly as an executable JAR or as a WAR file deployed on another Web container

And, of course, with this we also wish you a great start to the new year - Stay safe!
