Portofino and Tomcat 10

[weijan lee]

Dear Alessio,

Good day.

Is there any plan on migrating Portofino from Tomcat 9 to Tomcat 10?

And is that possible to migrate Portofino 5.3.4 to Tomcat 10?

Your response is very much appreciated.

Thank you.

Best regards,

WeiJan

Hi,

Tomcat 10 implements the Jakarta EE APIs instead of Java EE. There are no plans to migrate Portofino 5 to Jakarta EE.

We tried a migration of Portofino 6 (in development) last year but didn't succeed. We might try again later this year to see if Portofino's dependencies have updated to Jakarta EE, but that will be limited to Portofino 6.

Tomcat provides an automated migration tool, you may want to try that.

Hi Alessio,

Your prompt reply is very much appreciated.

Can I assume that Portofino 6 will only be released after the migration to Tomcat 10 is successfully done?

As for Tomcat automated migration tool, i had been working with it, and so far, the progress is unfruitful.

Thank you.

Best regards,
WeiJan

Not necessarily. Portofino 6 will not have Tomcat as the primary deploy option, it will put more focus on Spring Boot (that's available as an option in later versions of Portofino 5 already). So while the move to Jakarta EE would be important, it's not a blocker – if all features are ready, Portofino 6 will come out without it.
