Improvements, Resolved Issues and Third Party Updates

Third Party Updates

WorkItem:254679 - Update the versions of the Jackson JARs

The Jackson API contains multiple functions to read and build JSON using Java. It has very powerful data binding capabilities and provides a framework to serialize custom Java objects to JSON strings and deserialize JSON strings back into Java objects. The Java Development Environment (JDE) and the REST infrastructure utilize these utilities.

The versions of these JARs have now been updated from 2.9.9.3 to 2.9.10.1. As a result of this upgrade, the following changes have been made in the JDE and REST deliverables.

• ../CuramSDEJ/lib/third_party_version.properties - the versions of the specified Jackson JARs have been updated.
• ../CuramSDEJ/lib/jackson-databind-2.9.10.1.jar - new JAR added.
• ../CuramSDEJ/lib/jackson-databind-2.9.9.3.jar - old JAR removed.
• ../CuramCDEJ/lib/ext/jar/jackson-databind-2.9.10.1.jar - new JAR added.

• ../EJBServer/components/Rest/restlib/dependencyLibsExt/jackson-databind-2.9.10.1.jar - new JAR added.
• ../EJBServer/components/Rest/restlib/dependencyLibsExt/jackson-databind-2.9.9.3.jar - old JAR removed.

WorkItem:254897 - Update the version of the commons-beanutils JAR

Apache Commons BeanUtils provides easy-to-use wrappers around the Java Reflection and Introspection APIs. The Java Development Environment (JDE) utilizes this.

The versions of this JAR have now been updated from 1.9.3 to 1.9.4. As a result of this upgrade, the following changes have been made to the JDE deliverable.

• ../CuramSDEJ/lib/third_party_version.properties - the versions of the specified commons-beanutils JAR have been updated.
• ../CuramSDEJ/lib/commons-beanutils-1.9.4.jar - new JAR added.
• ../CuramSDEJ/lib/commons-beanutils-1.9.3.jar - old JAR removed.
