Question

The below reference says that the Java Clients which connects to Azure Service Bus and Azure Event Hubs will be affected post October 31.

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/messaging-on-azure-blog/java-client-changes-to-support-tls-1-3-with-azure-service-bus/ba-p/4089355

In the Required Action its specified if the Java Client uses AMQP or JMS. I use azure-servicebus:3.6.7 for Java Client code and wanted to confirm if anythings needs to be verified from the application code side. Internally the asb version azure-servicebus:3.6.7 uses proton-j-0.33.8 (The library in question should be higher that proton-j-0.30.0).

Does using proton-j version greater than 0.30.0 (0.33.8) confirms no Java Client side code change is required ?

Answer 1

Based on the information provided in the context, it is not clear whether using proton-j version greater than 0.30.0 (0.33.8) confirms that no Java Client side code change is required. However, the article "Java libraries, drivers, and Spring modules for Azure" provides information on the Azure Service Bus client library for Java, which is the recommended library for interacting with Azure Service Bus. The latest version of this library supports TLS 1.3. It is recommended to upgrade to the latest version of the Azure Service Bus client library for Java to ensure compatibility with TLS 1.3.
