(cherry picked from commit bfa547c2af)
* If there is no dataSourceProperties in the node.conf, the default value is modified to match the docker structure and documentation of having a persistence folder.
* chagnes according to pr review.
Remove some information that is way to specific for installing the
oracle jdk.
Add mention of zulu openjdk to the docs.
Specify that the docs will go through how to install the oracle jdk
only but provide links to amazon corretto, openjdk and zulu.
Also say that we support intellij 2019 which has been released now.
* CORDA-2477 Improve Signature Constraints documentation (#5041)
The Signature Constraint documentation in `api-contract-constraints`
was very limited and referred to the design doc for most information.
Information was extracted from the design doc and added to the main
documentation.
(cherry picked from commit cb85dd1e92)
* CORDA-2477 Add codesets so backported docs show properly
In Corda 4, FinalityFlow was updated to become an initiated flow, in order to ensure a node does not have to accept any signed transaction it receives without being able to check it first. The old behaviour of FinalityFlow was gated behind a targetPlatformVersion check, to prevent apps targeting V4 from using the old behaviour.
This is problematic for a few reasons. For an app wishing to be backwards compatible with a version running on V3, this forces the app to set targetPlatformVersion = 3, even if the app is thoroughly tested against V4. This goes against the purpose of the targetPlatformVersion. Another consequence is that an app remains pinned to targetPlatformVersion = 3 until it is sure that there are no other apps running at a lower version in the network, which would prevent newer versions of the app from taking advantage of features gated behind targetPlatformVersion checks. (Note that the restriction only prevents a new version of the app from initiating FinalityFlow with the old version - the old version is able to initiate a FinalityFlow and the new version will handle it, assuming the app has been written correctly.)
This fix removes the targetPlatformVersion check from FinalityFlow, and also provides a few documentation updates to clarify what level of testing would be expected to set a targetPlatformVersion.
* ENT-3057: Log hibernate warns and errors in different log
If a hibernate error occurs (deadlock, for example) that would cause a flow to be sent to the hospital, hibernate logs the warnings and errors before we do. This results in duplication in the logs, and pollutes the log. To solve this, we create a new log appender named diagnostic-{node-name}.log and log any org.hibernate messages of warn and above to that file. This way, messages are not lost, which means that the information can be retrieved if need be.
* Corrected indentation of comment (changed tab to space)
* Updated node-administration document to mention diagnostic logging change
* Fixed integration test. It was breaking because it was fetching the first log file in the folder, assuming there would be only one. This assumption is now invalid because the diagnostic log file that was introduced. Two tests were found that used similar logic to find a log file to examine, hence both were corrected to look for log files beginning with "node"
* Updated documentation as per review comments.
Added in wording to reflect the existing UAT joiner guide, in shortened form, onto the docs site. This will be made better, but is an interim solution. Since we don't have another website suitable for this, our team has agreed with Marketing that this is the place this should live (given it is separate from the Foundation). Will try to edit the toctree so this 'pops out' in the left-hand menu.
