The resulting + JARs are still fully compatible with Java 1.8 runtimes, but + only Java 11 SDKs are supported for building Framework 8 + for the 8.21 series. + + Build-time compatibility with Java 17 SDKs is being + investigated, but is not yet available. + If you wish to **run** Vaadin 8 on Java 9+ JREs, you *must* + set the Java environment value + `java.locale.providers=COMPAT`, otherwise locale + dependent conversions (country code, currency, etc) WILL be + inconsistent with Java 8 behavior, potentially leading to + data loss. + + Minimum Maven version to build Vaadin 8 is now **3.6.2**. + Included new dependencies: + + * `javassist` version 3.29.2-GA + * `maven-enforcer-plugin` 3.3.0 + + Updated supporting Maven plugins: + + * `maven-clean-plugin` from 3.0.0 to 3.2.0 + * `maven-compiler-plugin` from 3.5.1 to 3.11.0 + * `maven-site-plugin` from 3.5 to 3.12.1 + * `maven-jar-plugin` from 2.6 to 3.2.2 + * `maven-surefire-plugin` from 2.19.1 to 2.22.2 + * `maven-failsafe-plugin` from 2.19.1 to 2.22.2 + * `maven-dependency-plugin` from 3.0.1 to 3.5.0 + * `exec-maven-plugin` from 1.6.0 to 3.1.0 + * `versions-maven-plugin` from 2.3 to 2.15.0 + * `build-helper-maven`-plugin 1.10 to 1.12 + * `maven-source-plugin` 3.0.1 to 3.2.1 + * `maven-checkstyle-plugin` from 3.2.0 to 3.2.2 + +* Upgraded GWT dependency to 2.9.0 in order to make Framework 8 + more compatible with other Vaadin products and modern build + environments, as well as to improve compatibility with modern + browsers. + +* Fixed all JavaDoc generation errors and cleaned up some API + documentation along the way, resulting in better IDE + compatibility and cleaner formatting of the resulting + documentation. + +* Fixed a bug in the long polling push transport when the sync id + check is disabled, leading to the server continuously pushing. + This is a backported fix from Flow, see + [issue #17237](https://github.com/vaadin/flow/issues/17237) + [pull request #17238](https://github.com/vaadin/flow/pull/17238). + +* Added new API in `VaadinSession.java` which allows + setting priority of UIProviders. The function + `VaadinSession.addUIProvider` now takes an extra integer + parameter, which makes it possible to explicitly set priority + of the UI providers as they're added. + + Additionally, the functions + `VaadinSession.getUIProviderPriority` and + `VaadinSession.setUIProviderPriority` were added, which + can be used together with `VaadinSession.getUIProviders` + to alter the ordering of all UI providers added to the Session. + + It is also possible to specify the priority of the default UI + providers by setting the `UIPriority` value as part of + the `DeploymentConfiguration`. + + This does not alter default behavior. The default `UIProvider` + priority is 0; higher values get processed first. Providers with + the same priority will be processed in the order they were added. + + See the VaadinSession JavaDoc for more information. + +* Updated internal Jetty depdency from version `9.4.48.v20220622` + to version `9.4.51.v20230217` to avoid a false positive + security alert. The internal Jetty server is only used for + running tests at build time. + +* Updated plexus-archiver version in vaadin-maven-plugin to `4.8.0` + in order to fix a potential security vulnerability. + ## Vaadin 8.20.3 * Fixed an issue where compile-time license checking would fail on CI servers with release-only license files. @@ -1,6 +1,5 @@ [](https://gitter.im/vaadin/framework-8?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge) - # Vaadin Framework *[Vaadin](https://vaadin.com) allows you to build modern web apps efficiently in plain Java, without touching low level web technologies.* @@ -13,6 +12,7 @@ Vaadin 8 open source maintenance ended in February 2022, [extended support](http Vaadin 7 open source maintenance ended in Febraury 2019, [extended support](https://vaadin.com/support/vaadin-7-extended-maintenance) is available until February 2029.
