Hi Torque Community,

Did you expect it? Yet, there it is: A new release of Torque version 5.0 !

Labelled version 5.0 it is still considered highly compatible with version 

4.

This will bring finally a lot of refactoring to the public, see all 
details below. 

This release contains the following updates:

- 81 resolved JIRA issues: 

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TORQUE-359?jql=project%20%3D%20TORQUE%20AND%20status%20%3D%20Resolved%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%205.0



- that is, a lot of bugfixes, cleanup and refactoring, e.g. 
time/date/timestamp-string formatting, deprecated DBCP1 adapters, DBCP2 is 

the default now.
- Updated almost all plugins, build and database dependencies, major 
updates e.g. Velocity 2.0, Groovy 3.0.4, Log4J2, JUnit 5.
- Java 8 
- Tested and build in Java 8, 11 14 with JUnit 5. New Docker testcontainer 

profiles for mysql and postgresql added, butother databases could use this 

approach as well. Check out the svn repo and add your code in torque-test!
- New refactored Torque ant task Torque4JDBCTransformTask, which uses the 
velocity code generation mechanism and allows again generating the Torque 
schema from a database.
