    Description

      The jcip-annotations.jar is being added to server/all/lib as a workaround to a JDK bug: see JBAS-6428. This JIRA is to consider removing the JAR once the JDKs the AS is targetting have their bug fixed.

      Note that it's possible the some code will actually start using these annotations at runtime, so need to check for that. Currently they are only used at compile time (basically as documentation of the expected behavior of the class, as shown in the examples in Java Concurrency in Practice).

          Bug - A problem that impairs or prevents the functions of the product. JBAS-6428 HAPartition unable to start with IBM JDK 1.5 - net.jcip.annotations.ThreadSafe not found

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
