Hi,
I'd like to discuss how the development of [BeanUtils] and [BeanUtils2]
can be continued.
The last release of BeanUtils (1.8.3) is now nearly 3 years ago and
there
are 92 open issues in JIRA.
OTOH we've put quiet some effort into [BeanUtils2]. There are some
issues
that have to be addressed* but the API is in a good shape.
But [BeanUtils2] is also a complete redesign of the API that is binary
incompatible with [BeanUtils].
Keeping this in mind I propose the following:
- promote [BeanUtils2] to proper; move it to a 2.0 branch in the
beanutils
svn subtree.**
- fix all issues that can be fixed without breaking BC in [BeanUtils] to
push out a last bug fix release for users that don't want to swtich to a
new API.
- Make clear that BeanUtils 1.8.4 will be the last release of the 1.x
line.
WDYT?
Sounds perfectly reasonable. If you have only maintenance stuff 1.8.4 is
fine. If you intent to add new features for the 1.x line, you might
better
call it 1.9.0 after all this years.
Okay, I'll try to review the open issues this weekend.
I am also interested in a new BeanUtils release and would like to
contribute some new features. Unfortunately, I am not sure when I get the
cycles to work on this.
Nice to hear this. I'm starting tonight by sorting the open issues into can
"be fixed in 1.8.4" and "has to be fixed later".
IIRC you need new features for [configuration], right? Can you create
issues for this, if you don't already have?
two issues were created.

TIA!

* Some JavaDoc is still missing and we have to take a look at the
caching.
AFAIK WeakHashMap is not the best choice for an in-memory-cache. We'll
discuss this in a separate thread.
** I don't know the exact formal process for this. What has to be done
to
promote a component to proper? Does there have to be a formal vote by
the
PMC?
Not sure for this special case either. Actually you're not promoting a
new
component. However, you may look into the archives, IIRC Simo had the
same
case for the last major release of digester.
I'll ask Simo what he has done for digister.
Thanks a lot!
Benedikt
Cheers,
Jörg
