> Key: GEODE-2709
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-2709
> Project: Geode
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: serialization
> Reporter: Bruce Schuchardt
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Fix For: 1.7.0
>
> Time Spent: 50m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> Backward-compatibility support currently pays attention to a version's
> Product name and its compareTo method pays attention to the major/minor/etc
> numerals. This is an artifact of the GemFireXD effort at Pivotal a few years
> ago and should be removed. The Product name is no longer needed at all and
> compareTo should just compare the version ordinals.
> All places that compare versions should be scrutinized to make sure this
> change doesn't break anything.
> All methods with names beginning with toDataPre_ or fromDataPre_ need to be
> changed to remove the product name and the sanctionedDataSerializables.txt
> database needs to be updated to have these new method names and fingerprints
> (generated by the AnalyzeSerializablesJUnitTest).
