-- Release Notes -- JCR Browser -- Version 0.9.4 --
++ Introduction ++
This is the 0.9.4 release of the JCR Browser. It is a simple and free
Eclipse based
open source tool and visualizes the content of a JSR 170 compliant Java
Content
Repository. It is stable, maintained and supported since 2006.
You can find out more about it at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jcrbrowser/.
++ News and Noteworthy ++
The main feature is the new standalone version that has been created by
Ketan Padegaonkar
(http://ketan.padegaonkar.name/). It is a minimum version of Eclipse
that only includes the
Eclipse plugins that are really nessesary for the JCR Browser.
The splash screen has been designed by Rishikesh Parkhe
(http://rishiparkhe.googlepages.com).
The new release also contains:
o An upgrade to Jackrabbit 1.5.2.
o An alignment of the connector naming
o The new remote Jackrabbit HTTP connection.
o A new "Select node by XPath" action. This action
expands and selects the node that corresponds to
the XPath
o A new "Select node by UUID" action. This action
expands and selects the node that has the specified
UUID.
++ Release Contents ++
o JCR Browser Standard Edition (JCRBrowser_0.9.4_StandardEdition.zip)
It contains the following connectors:
- Apache Jackrabbit repository via RMI:
Connects to a Jackrabbit repository that runs on a server and is
available via RMI. The classpath of the repository is under your
control there.
- Apache Jackrabbit repository via HTTP:
Connects to a Jackrabbit repository that runs on a server and is
available via RMI. The classpath of the repository is under your
control there.
- Apache Jackrabbit repository bundled with the JCR Browser:
When using this connector the JCR Browser starts the
repository within the VM of Eclipse. Thats the reason why you
have no control over the classpath of the repository in this
case.
This is the fastest connector but it also locks the repository.
This means that you need to close the connection in the JCR Browser
first, if you want to start the repository within your own
application.
For further information e.g. installation information please consult
the ReadMeFirst.txt file that can be found in the root folder of the
distribution.
o JCR Browser jLibrary Edition (JCRBrowser_0.9.4_jLibraryEdition.zip)
Additionally to the standard edition it contains a connector for the
jLibrary Document Management System (see http://www.jlibrary.org)
++ Known Bugs ++
o At the moment you will not see the list of registered namespaces
when you connect to the repository via RMI or HTTP. Please monitor
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-1959 for possible
workarounds.
