As a result, FacetPath + (which was a sequence of strings) is now simply a string. This is + reflected in all APIs that used FacetPath. + + * There is no active facet map (AFM) in Ice::Object anymore. As a + result, the follwing operations have been removed: + + + On proxies: ice_facets, ice_appendFacet. + + + On Object: ice_facets, ice_addFacet, ice_removeFacet, + ice_updateFacet, ice_removeAllFacets, ice_findFacet, + ice_findFacetPath. + + * The object adapter now registeres facets (instead of the active + facet map). The following operations have been added to + Ice::ObjectAdapter: addFacet, addFacetWithUUID, removeFacet, + and findFacet. + + Please see the reference manual fore more information. For naming + consistency, the following object adapter operations have been + renamed: + + + identityToFacet has been renamed to find. + + proxyToFacet has been renamed to findByProxy. + + * This object model design change means that if you transfer an + object by value, then no facets are transferred along with the + object, because plain objects don't have facets anymore. + + * If your application receives an objects with facets from an older + version of Ice, MarshalException is raised. Unfortunately, there + is no way around this, not even with protocol or encoding + versioning. That's because the object model has changed, not just + the way objects are transferred or encoded. + - Ice does now not retry operation calls on RequestFailedException anymore. (ObjectNotExistException, OperationNotExistException, and FacetNotExistException are derived from RequestFailedException.) |
