Release notes for Ice for Javascript can't be reached through website

bmaranville

When navigating to the release notes from the links provided on the ZeroC website (https://doc.zeroc.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=7275126), I reach a dead end when the page tries to auto-reload with this url: "js:Release Notes".

I would like information on the compilation of the add-on websocket library for Ice 3.5.1 which is located in these release notes, I believe.

Thanks - Brian Maranville

Hi Brian,

With the addition of the JavaScript mapping in Ice 3.6beta, we have "deprecated" the original preview release. The WebSocket transports are also included in the Ice core in 3.6.

Are you able to use Ice 3.6b until the 3.6.0 release?

Regards,
Mark

Thanks for the quick reply - we have a facility-wide deployment of Ice 3.5.1 so for the moment my development has to use the patched glacier2router from the IceJS-0.1.0 release with websocket support.

We were getting an occasional bad_alloc error on Ice messages when using this router instead of the one that is shipped with the core Ice 3.5.1, and I wanted to make sure I had the build environment set up correctly. I was building against the binary installation of Ice 3.5.1 (using /usr/bin/slice2cpp instead of the IceJS-0.1.0/cpp/bin/slice2cpp) and now I'm trying with a self-consistent build, using the slice2cpp binary from the IceJS folder.

Ok, no problem. I've restored the release notes:
