Revapi and WildFly

Revapi is an API analysis and change tracking tool written in Java hosted on https://revapi.org/.

Generate API diff

I used standalone variant of Revapi described in https://revapi.org/getting-started.html#standalone_usage and https://revapi.org/modules/revapi-standalone/index.html

Bits generated in https://github.com/rsvoboda/rsvoboda-playground/tree/master/japicmp-and-wildfly were used for analysis.

wget -O revapi-standalone-0.7.0-standalone.zip http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=org/revapi/revapi-standalone/0.7.0/revapi-standalone-0.7.0-standalone.zip

Notes

Pros:

• Flexibility to define extensions and their versions
• Documentation for Architecture and Extensions

Cons:

• Slower comparing to japicmp (above example was finished in 1m12.106s)
• No simple Copy&Paste example for standalone usage
