Per default? So if there are no indexed entities nothing happens and if there are Search gets automatically enabled?

I'm stuck on an > island with extremely slow connectivity. I can do a release. Just wondering whether it should be a CR already? The main point of 4.5 was to give us ORM 4.3 compatibility, right? AFAIK we already upgraded now to 4.3.0.Final (just not released yet). So it would really be time to get 4.5.0.Final out. We could cut a CR release and if nothing comes up promote it to 4.5 final in a couple of weeks. > - Contribute some integration tests to WildFly: there aren't any > today verifying the included modules +1 > What shall we do about our modules distribution?

Not sure. The module won’t be a pure drop-in anymore. Now the module needs to make sure that existing module(s) get properly “reconfigured”. What I mean is that we might have to do more than extracting a tar ball. We might need to remove/change existing files as well. Is it not easier to provide instructions on how to update the exiting modules? Unfortunately, this comes at a non optimal point in time. Not only will it take time from the Lucene 4 migration (aka Search 5), but if Search 4.x gets included now we probably will get very quickly people asking on how to use Search 5 with Wildfly. If nothing else a lot of dependencies change at this point. It won’t be a simple replace of a single jar. Will/Can CapeDwarf and clustering also switch to Search 5 once we start making releases? —Hardy _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
