It looks like snapshots need to be updated in this PR.

[mshima]

Closing/reopen to check new infinispan version.

[DanielFran]

@mshima this needs updates of snapshots and I cannot update them...

[mshima]

infinispan is not compatible with sb3 yet.

[mshima]

@DanielFran I will try to update snapshots tonight.

Does this work with Infinispan now? If so, we might want to update the PR's title.

No infinispan support.

@mraible @mshima infinispan spring-boot 3 integration is in progress: infinispan/infinispan#10569

[mshima]

@DanielFran I spent quite some time trying to integrate it.
I've found a lot of problems:

• It's not officially supported by infinispan, so dependency customizations are applied to the spring-boot bom.
  jhipster-bom was removing the customization, but I've found that spring-boot-dependencies are not used to manage generated project dependencies, so we need to replicate the customization in jhipster-bom instead or add spring-boot-dependencies to the generated application.
• spring-boot is failing to auto configure infinispan. Adding some manual configuration like forcing infinispan as cache works.
  But:
  • our current customizations does not work when using integrated spring-boot configuration.
  • cache names are not added, we need to change the customization from the java class to application.yml config.
  • annotations with cache names were not working. Caches needed to be added by config application.yml file.
• it's supposed to be possible to use infinispan using spring-boot jcache support. We could unify configuration using jcache. But spring-boot jcache support just ignores infinispan and take another provider (I don't remember, ehcache maybe).
• redis support seems to have problems too.

I've got a somewhat functional application with infinispan.
We are not near a v8 release, so I decided to hold and wait for the sb3 cache support to mature.
In any case I think we should cleanup cache support and delegate a lot more to spring-boot.

@mshima @mraible finally released: https://infinispan.org/blog/2023/03/13/infinispan-14

[mshima]

Added a hardcoded temporary infinispan-bom dependency that should be dropped at #21321.
