Java agent release notesRSS

January 16, 2013
Java agent v2.13.0

Download this agent version

Important

The end-of-life date for this agent version is July 29, 2019. To update to the latest agent version, see Update the agent. For more information, see End-of-life policy.

Notes

  • Agent can be configured to not send JVM arguments to the New Relic server

    The property send_jvm_props can be set to false, which will cause JVM arguments to no longer be sent to the server. Use this setting if you set sensitive system properties on the command line.

  • Agent reports full URL in external service calls for transaction traces

    The agent now will provide the full URL if available in transaction traces for external calls.

  • Fix: ResinServletTracerFactory no longer causing SkipServletTracerFactory errors

    When hitting the ResinServletTracerFactory inside a transaction, a SkipServletTracerFactory excetion will no longer be thrown.

  • Agent logging improvements

    We have improved the clarity of logging messages, adjusted logging levels to be more appropriate, and increased logging performance.

Java agent v2.12.0

Important

The end-of-life date for this agent version is July 29, 2019. To update to the latest agent version, see Update the agent. For more information, see End-of-life policy.

Notes

  • Agent reports jars used by applications to the Environments tab in the UI

    The Environments tab in the New Relic UI now shows the jars used by your application.

  • Fix: In certain cases, auto-RUM of JSP breaks HTML

    An angle-bracket in quotes in a META tag causes the agent to produce invalid HTML for JSP. The fix produces valid HTML for this case.

  • Fix: Key Transaction ApdexT value not used

    In v2.10 - v2.11, the application-level ApdexT value is used for Key Transactions rather than the ApdexT for the Key Transaction itself. In this release, the ApdexT for the Key Transaction is used.

  • Fix: With OC4J using PolicyClassLoader, no metrics displayed

    In the case where OC4J uses the PolicyClassLoader, the agent generates a java.lang.StackOverflowError in the log and does not provide metrics. In this release, the error does not occur.

  • Fix: External metrics for HttpClient include port if host is an IP address

    In the case where an external service call uses HttpClient with an IP address rather than a hostname, the port number is also included. In this release, the port number is not displayed.
