The Velocity developers are pleased to another beta release of VelocityTools 2.0 available for download.
Downloads are available here: http://velocity.apache.org/download.cgi This should be useable as a drop in replacement for Tools 1.4 or Tools 2.0-beta3, with a few minor exceptions. The 2.x series of VelocityTools also requires Velocity 1.5+ and JDK 1.5+. Changes since 2.0-beta3: * Tools references are no longer read-only by default * LinkTool encoding is fixed (afaict, please test!) * Upgraded to compile-time dependency on Engine 1.6.2 * Deprecated ListTools due to irrelevance in Engine 1.6.x * ResourceTool now gives access to keys * MultiViewsTool was modernized into new IncludeTool * Added syntactical sugar to CookieTool * Multiple new methods contributed for DisplayTool * Added the WebappUberspector for natural #set in webapp scopes (requires Velocity 1.6.x) * Refactor JeeConfig to an interface * Variety of small fixes and improvements * Misc doc improvements * Misc showcase example improvements * Added experimental "ant rat" target * Added many missing license headers The Velocity developers are very interested in all feedback regarding Tools 2.0, especially regarding backwards compatibility with apps designed for Tools 1.4 or earlier. We aim to enable a smooth, incremental transition for developers and their applications. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
