The current 1.0-RC candidate is _NOT_ compatible to the various pre-1.0 snapshots that are in wide use with e.g. Turbine.
If you drop it in, there will be complaints about the missing getVector() methods from the Configuration interface.
I will rework the Turbine code for the 2.3.1 release, however, it
would be _very_ nice, if these methods (which are Vector
getVector(String) and Vector getVector(String, Vector)) are kept for
the 1.0 release to allow projects that are currently using the
snapshots to migrate to 1.0 without having to rebuild.
I'm all for deprecating these methods and removing them for 1.1. But _please_ keep them for 1.0.
I have a patch for this that I want to put into CVS later today.
Even with a deprecated getVector() method the 1.0 release will not become a drop in replacement for the various pre-1.0 snapshots, the constructors with a default configuration have disappeared for example and some classes have been renamed. I'd prefer a clean 1.0 API and encourage people to update their code, if they don't do it now they'll do it later for the 1.x or 2.0 release when the deprecated methods are removed, why postponing the inevitable ?
