Fix Conversion for TabularData optimized. If any index of an TabularData structure is not a SimpleType, then a direct serialization of the Tabular Data (i.e. an JSON Object with two entries "indexNames" and "values" is created).

Type Changes By
Fix Fix a bug HistoryEntry.trim() when the list of values is empty and max duration is > 0. Fixes 67. mjr5749

Fix Fixed URI encoding for GET requests in the JavaScript client library. Fixes 64. roland
Fix Added safety net for serialization, so that OutputStreams and Writers are never obtained from get-methods if they declare a subclass as return value. It happens e.g. for Jetty 8.1 that FileResource.getOutputStream() opens a new FileOutputStream nuking the existing data. Nice side effect ;-) roland
Fix Added new global and process configuration options "includeStackTrace" (true,false,runtime) and "serializeException" (true, false) which can be used to tune the error responses. Fixes 59. roland
Fix "canonicalNaming" option can be as global agent configuration, too. Fixes 59. roland
Fix Fixed Glassfish detector which failed to boot AMX in certain circumstances. Fixes 63. roland
Add Added support for JSON-MBean. A dedicated @JsonMBean annotation can be used to export complex arguments/attributes/return values as JSON String to the Platform MBeanServer. Jolokia now offers an own MBeanServer as well for registering MBeans which won't show up in any other (exported) MBeanServer (except for the delegation of @JsonMBeans which are delegated and translated). roland
Fix Fixed issues with GET requests and MBean ObjectNames which end with a "/". Added to integration tests to deal with these issues. roland
Fix Fixed timestamp in the Java client library's response. twhite
Add New module "jolokia-spring" with Spring integration for the JVM agent has been added. It contains an own Spring configuration syntax and provides also a plugin for automatic startup the agent with default values by only declaring a dependency (works for containers which automatically lookup META-INF/spring/*.xml). Kudos to James Strachan for the initial idea. roland

Release 1.0.6 – 2012-11-26

Type Changes By
Fix Jolokia's JavaScript poller fixes an register/unregister issue, where the returned handle from register() remains stable. roland
Fix Jolokia JVM agent used with startup options now initializes itself lazily in order to await all the MBeans required for a proper server detection. roland
Add One can now change the key property order for MBeans names with the query parameter "canonicalNaming" for read, list and search operations. By default this is set to "true" in which case an alphabetical ordering for the keys is used. If set to "false", then the original name as registered is used. mikael,jstrachan,roland
Add Added a method "jobs()" to the JavaScript Jolokia agent to get all handles for all currently registered jobs. roland
Fix Added GlassfishDetector to the list of detectors for the OSGi Agent. roland

Release 1.0.5 – 2012-07-23

Type Changes By

Type Changes By
Add Allow for custom detector options in the agent's configuration. These options can be evaluated during startup of the agent. The first (and only) option it 'bootAmx' for allowing a Glassfish detector to not boot up the AMX subsystem upon start of this agent. By default (since it is probably needed every time when Jolokia is installed), AMX is booted to provide the most userful information over JMX. roland
Add Added a page showing the Jolokia-Cubism integration including live demos. roland
Add Added a scheduler to the JavaScript client library. roland
Fix Fixed issue with HTTP method checker for policy based restrictions. roland
Fix Fixed fallback when registering ConfigMBean which didn't properly work (see pull request #42) roland

Update If registering of an ConfigMBean doesnt work because there has been already one be registered with the same name by another agent, a warning is giving out and a UUID is adde to the object name, so startup works as usual. Use either a "mbeanQualifier" or an "httpServiceFilter" in order to avoid naming collisions from the very beginning. roland
Add Added CORS support for the agents including preflight checks. The policy based restrictor allows for fine grained restriction of cross origin access with a <cors> section. Fixes JOL-27. roland
Update Added none-caching headers (cache-control: 'no-cache', pragma: 'no-cache', expires: '-1') to Jolokia's response for all requests. roland

Release 1.0.2 – 2012-01-06

Type Changes By
Update Verified that javascript client binding works with jQuery 1.7.1 roland
Update Updated Roo plugin for Roo 1.2. It won't work with older Roo versions. roland
Add Jolokia's Java client library now can request MBeans via an JSR-160 proxy. This is done either by giving a default proxy configuration to the J4pClient or by providing a proxy config to the request objects. roland
Add Added support for global and request procession parameter "mimeType" for specifying the HTTP content-type for the Jolokia response. By default this is "text/plain" (but "application/json" can be useful, too). roland
Add In case of an error, the request leading to this error is returned in the response, too. roland

Release 1.0.0 – 2011-10-03

Type Changes By
Add Applied patch from codewax for supporting an Equinox HTTP-Service roland
Fix Increased test coverage to 80.5%, documented public API to 100% (plus 100% rules coverage, 0% duplications, 0% package tangle index ...). See http://labs.consol.de/sonar/dashboard/index/org.jolokia:jolokia for more information about Jolokia's code metrics. roland
Fix Fixed problem with URL encoding for GET request with the Java client library, which used to use URLEncoder.encode() and switched now to URI. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/724043/http-url-address-encoding-in-java for details. roland
Add Added processing options for the Java client roland
Add Changed escaping scheme for GET URLs and paths so that a slash (/) can be escaped with an exclamation mark (!): / --> !/ roland

Release 0.95 – 2011-08-21

Type Changes By
Add Added a dynamical attach mode for the JVM agent launcher (patch by Greg Bowyer). The agent now includes also a client for dynamically starting/stoping an agent on already running Java process. See the reference manual for more information. roland
Add Support for upstream serialization of open type, i.e. CompositeData and TabularData. This allows for easy access to MXBeans, which provide support of transparent translation between plain Java objects and collections, which follow some restrictions, to open type data. Jolokia knows how to deal with the fixed format used by this MXBean translation of Maps and transparentrly dispatch this to a JSON map. Initial patch provided by asssaf. roland

Release 0.91 – 2011-05-30

Type Changes By
Fix Fixed issue with overloaded methods where one variant takes no arguments. This no-arg variant can be specified with the signature "()" after the operation name. roland
Add Added HTTPS support for the JVM agent. In order to switch it on, the property "protocol=https" must be set and additional the properties "keystore" and "keystorePassword" for pointing to the keystore which holds the server side certificate. Client side certificate authentication is switched off currently alway. roland
Fix Fixed date handling when an MBean exports an attribute as date. It is now returned as an ISO-8601 formatted string, when used with a path "time" the epoch milliseconds are returned. Setting of date values and using dates as arguments for JMX operations is now also supported, the value can be given either in epoch milliseconds or as an ISO-86-1 formatted string. With a path "time" a given date value can be even updated for a write operation. roland
Update Reworked "list" handling. It's now much faster when used with paths since it doesn't slurp in the whole meta and truncate it afterwards but does the right thing directly to only fetch the required information. The list handler respect now a 'maxDepth' request option for truncating the data from top down. 'maxDepth' works with paths, too. Comprehensive unit tests has been added as well. roland
Add Added constructor to J4pListRequest() which takes an ObjectName as argument for fetching the meta data for a single MBean only. roland

Release 0.90 – 2011-04-04

Type Changes By
Add Added a Knopflerfish detector and tested Jolokia with Knopflerfish 3.1 roland
Fix Fixed content-type in javascript library to "text/json" for requests (was "application/x-www-form-urlencoded") roland
Update A search request will now return an empty list, not an error response with a 404 status code. A null result of a search query is considered to be a valid result, not an error condition. roland
Add Added a OSGi bundle property org.jolokia.listenForHttpService which, if set to false, prevents the automatic registration of a JolokiaServlet to an OSGi HttpService (default: true) roland
Add The activator in jolokia-osgi and jolokia-osgi-bundle can now use an OSGi restrictor service implementing org.jolokia.restrictor.Restrictor when bundle property org.jolokia.useRestrictorService is set to true. roland
Add Added a servlet init parameter "policyLocation" for specifying the location of the policy file. This can be an URL or an string with prefix "classpath:". Default: "classpath:/jolokia-access.xml" roland
Update Refactored restrictor handling and exported org.jolokia.restrictor in the OSGi bundles. JolokiaServlet can take now an Restrictor object as constructor parameter. roland
Update Lookup of policy file with the same classloader as used for loading the jolokia classes if lookup failed with context loader added. roland
Update jolokia.js: Works now with jQuery 1.5.1, too (but still doesn't use the advanced Ajax features) roland
Update jolokia.js: Added an HTTP method upgrade to "post" if a proxy target is provided. roland
Update jolokia.js: Add a trailing slash to the Jolokia URL if a "post" request is requested. roland
Update Changed protocol in order to support JSON types for return values and write/exec parameters instead of only plain strings as it was before. roland

Release 0.83 – 2011-02-19

Type Changes By
Update Reference Manual updated with sections about the OSGi agent and the new Roo addon. roland
Add Jolokia Roo addon added. roland
Add Added a Virgo detector (tested with 2.1) roland
Add Added PGP signing for the deployed artifacts roland
Add Introduced org.jolokia.osgi.servlet.JolokiaServlet which gets exported by the jolokia-osgi bundle and allows for programmatic registration of the servlet without the use of an OSGi HttpService. roland
Update Update jolokia-osgi-bundle to include Felix's HttpService implementation (since its is a bit smaller and fits better due to the packages already included). Now the bundle can be deployed without dependencies at all on Felix and Equinox. I recommend to use the 'pure' bundle and a given HttpService, though. roland
Fix Fixed problem for Jetty Detector with Jetty Version < 6.1.4 and made server detection to more conservative so that the servlet starts up nevertheless when an exception occurs during the detection phase (call in the servlet's init method). roland
Fix Fixed registering of simplifiers, which allows for simplified serialization of well known objects like java.io.File or javax.management.ObjectName roland

Release 0.82 – 2011-01-16

Type Changes By
Update The HTTP status code returned with a HTTP response does not reflect the status of the JMX operation itself. An HTTP error occurs only if an processing exception (like security constraint violations) happen on the top agent level, otherwise 200 is returned (even when an Jolokia response object contains an error). roland
Add Added a JavaScript client library including about 120 unit tests and a new section in the reference manual. roland

Release 0.81 – 2010-12-14

Type Changes By
Fix Fixed MBean registration issue with Websphere AS 7.0 where MBean registration via the MBeanRegistration intefaces causes the WAS MBeanServer to raise a NPE (but register the MBean nevertheless, so no rollback here). roland
Add New request parameter "callback" allows for sending a response as JavaScript function (JSONP). For POST request this parameter must be given as URL parameter and is valid for bulk requests, too. roland
Add Security policy can now be globally restricted to a certain HTTP method. Within the <http> section of the policy file, <method> tags define the allowed methods ("get" or "post"). If this section is missing, all methods are allowed. If only one method is given, the other is forbidden. roland
Add Added an alias for MBean "jmx4perl:type=Config" to "jolokia:type=Config" for backwards compatibility with jmx4perl clients < 0.80 roland
Fix Change HttpClient to a thread safe connection manager by default, extended J4pClient construction with a builder pattern. Fixes 14. roland
Add Added a server detection facility (available via the 'version' command) and made 'version' the default command if no command is given in the request URL for a GET request. roland
Add Added a "error_type" key to the Jolokia response in case of an remote exception, which will contain the Java class name of this error. Added getErrorType() to the J4pRemoteException for the Java-Client. roland
