Update from 7.22 to 7.23

This document guides you through the update from Camunda 7.22.x to 7.23.0 and covers the following use cases:

  1. For developers: Set Variables Async API
  2. For administrators and developers: Bootstrap NES and AngularJS NES by HeroDevs, Inc.
  3. For administrators and developers: GraalVM Upgrade

This guide covers mandatory migration steps and optional considerations for the initial configuration of new functionality included in Camunda 7.23.

Set Variables Async API

Before version 7.22.1, the Set Variables Async API failed whenever at least one of the process instances did not exist.

Starting with version 7.22.1, the behavior has changed: if any of the process instances was deleted or completed, the call will still succeed. As a consequence, the Set Variables Batch Operation will also succeed in this case.

Please note that this does not apply to the Sync API, which keeps its behavior and fails if the process instance does not exist.

Bootstrap NES and AngularJS NES by HeroDevs, Inc.

Camunda 7.23.0 replaces the following libraries with versions of Bootstrap NES and AngularJS NES by HeroDevs, Inc.:

  • AngularJS (technical names: angular, angular-animate, angular-cookies, angular-loader, angular-mocks, angular-resource, angular-route, angular-sanitize, angular-touch)
  • angular-ui-bootstrap
  • angular-translate
  • angular-moment
  • Bootstrap

Where AngularJS, angular-ui-bootstrap, angular-translate, angular-moment, and Bootstrap were licensed entirely under the MIT license, Bootstrap NES and AngularJS NES by HeroDevs, Inc. licenses additional parts under the HeroDevs NES License. By downloading and using Camunda with Bootstrap NES and AngularJS NES by HeroDevs, Inc., you agree to the terms of the HeroDevs NES License. You can find the HeroDevs NES License terms in our License Book.

Please see our third-Party libraries documentation for details.

GraalVM Upgrade

We are pleased to announce that the 7.23 release is compatible with GraalVM 21.3.x

The engine will automatically disable the system property polyglot.engine.WarnInterpreterOnly when a GraalJS script engine is used.

This adjustment ensures a smoother experience by suppressing unnecessary warnings related to interpreter-only execution in non-native GraalVM environments which might cause confusion to our users running on non-GraalVM JDKs.

You can read more about the warnings here.

Heads-up!

If you want to ensure the best performance for JS execution, you can always configure the GraalVM Compiler with your JDK of choice, or use the GraalVM JDK.

More information on how to do this can be found in the official GraalVM documentation.
