Dear users
I am very pleased to announce that Castor 1.2 has just been made
available and can be downloaded from the Codehaus at
http://dist.codehaus.org/castor/1.2/.
This release is a feature release with a couple of non-trivial
changes/enhancements in selected areas (mainly XML code generation,
support for Java 5) we'd like to bring to your attention:
- Castor XML code generator now (optionally) uses Velocity as template
engine.
- New binaries packaging: XML schema support has been moved to a
separate (and new) JAR.
- Native Java 5 code generation has been improved (mainly for enumerations).
- The usage of XML parsers has been completely refactored, incl. the
run-time dependencies.
- A new Maven archetype has been created to ease bug reporting.
In addition, a lot of work has been done to prepare for a first
(partial) alpha release of the new JAXB support for Castor XML. More on
this in a separate email later on.
As always, for details about features added and bugs fixed, please have
a look at the release notes at
http://castor.codehaus.org/release-notes.html.
For information about future releases, please have a look at the project
road map (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CASTOR), and please report any
regression issues at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CASTOR.
Regards
Werner Guttmann
Castor, committer
