In this release, the PORTABILITY project has been implemented. Finally, the SQLDialect has been removed from most generated artefacts (Schema, Table, Field, Sequence, etc). Also, the constructing Factory is not referenced by its created QueryParts anymore, unless this is really necessary (Query objects, UDT's, ARRAY types). This leads to higher compatibility between schemata of different databases, e.g. if users want to use an HSQLDB development and Oracle productive database.
Unfortunately, this means that the way stored procedures are called had to be changed. This is an API break that could not be avoided. The pre-1.6.1 StoredObject.execute(Connection) method is deprecated and will be removed in the future. It has been replaced by StoredObject.execute(Configuration) In addition to this project, many more window functions are now supported, as well as the Oracle-specific CONNECT BY clause for recursive queries.
