Major changes due to JDK 17:
1. JDK17 JCE Provider now has built-in support for eddsas, corda uses
the bouncycastle (i2p) implementation. This PR removes the conflicting
algorithms from the built-in JCE provider.
2. JavaScript scripting has been removed from the JDK, the corda log4j config was using
scripting to conditionally output additional diagnostic info if the MDC
was populated. This PR has removed the scripting.
3. The artifactory plug-ins used are now deprecated, this PR has removed them
and uses the same code as Corda 5 for publishing to artifactory.
4. Javadoc generation has been modified to use the latest dokka plug-ins.
5. Gradle 7.6 has implemented an incredibly annoying change where transitive
dependencies are not put on the compile classpath, so that they have to be
explicitly added as dependencies to projects.
6. Mockito has been updated, which sadly meant that quite a few source files
have to changes to use the new (org.mockito.kotlin) package name. This makes
this PR appear much larger than it is.
7. A number of tests have been marked as ignored to get a green, broadly they fall
into 3 classes.
The first is related to crypto keypair tests, it appears some logic
in the JDK prefers to use the SunJCE implementation and we prefer to use
bouncycastle. I believe this issue can be fixed with better test setup.
The second group is related to our use of a method called "uncheckedCast(..)",
the purpose of this method was to get rid of the annoying unchecked cast compiler
warning that would otherwise exist. It looks like the Kotlin 1.9 compiler type
inference differs and at runtime sometimes the type it infers is "Void" which causes
an exception at runtime. The simplest solution is to use an explicit cast instead of
unchecked cast, Corda 5 have removed unchecked cast from their codebase.
The third class are a number of ActiveMQ tests which appear to have a memory leak somewhere.
* Added throttling to the load test tool.
* Added stability test to the tool.
* Some refactoring to allow some configuration via vm option.
* updated doc.
* gradle now passes system parameter to load test.
* using Guava's RateLimiter instead of execute at fix rate.
* CORDA-305: Refactor CordaRPCClient into :client:rpc module
* CORDA-305: Remove the Kotlin test framework from the artifacts.
* CORDA-305: Migrate serialisation whitelist into node-api module.
* CORDA-305: Clean up unused RPC observables.
* CORDA-305: Add :client:rpc module to documentation tasks.
* CORDA-305: Include :finance into :client:rpc for its serialisable classes.
* CORDA-305: Move test classes into the correct directory.
* CORDA-305: Migrate :finance dependency from :client:rpc into DemoBench.
* CORDA-305: Update wording of TODO about handling Observables.
* CORDA-304: Refactor :client modules into :client:javafx and :client:mock.
* CORDA-304: Add :client:mock to Dokka tasks, and remove unused integrationTest task.
* CORDA-304: Migrate DriverBasedTest from node into test-utils.
* CORDA-304: Rename .fx. package to .jfx. to prevent confusion with "exchange rate".
* CORDA-304: Rename module to ':client:jfx'.
