[ANNOUNCEMENT] Commons Configuration 1.3 Released

The Jakarta Commons team is pleased to announce the availability of the
Commons Configuration 1.4 release. Commons Configuration provides a
generic configuration interface which enables an application to read
configuration data from a variety of sources.

This release contains numerous bug fixes, but also adds some new
features like improved interpolation support, a new configuration class
for windows ini files, or a new reloading strategy that can be triggered
using JMX. All changes are source and binary compatible with the
previous release (1.3).

Commons Configuration is available in either binary or source form from
the Configuration downloads page:
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads_commons-configuration.cgi
When downloading the release, please check the signatures and md5 sums
using the values from the main Apache web site (linked on the download
page).

More information about Commons Configuration can be found at the
Configuration main site at
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/configuration/

The changes report contains a list with all changes since the last
release and is available at
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/configuration/changes-report.html

Happy Easter!
Oliver Heger
on behalf of the Commons community

Sounds like a lot of interesing stuff! I am really looking forward to

Thanks

Thanks, Oliver.  Just FYI, I will be checking in more fixes and  
enhancements over the next several weeks and will need another release  
in another month or two.

Here is a list of what I'm working on:
Direct support for schema validation in XMLConfiguration (completed)
Support for adding EntityResolvers to XMLConfiguration (completed)
Support for Apache XML Commons CatalogResolver - xml-resolver package  
(completed)
Allow a default EntityResolver to be added to  
DefaultConfigurationBuilder's configuration (completed)
Allow the EntityResolver configured in DefaultConfigurationBuilder to  
default to the CatalogResolver (completed)
I've been requested to have CombinedConfiguration be able to return  
the list of configuration names in a List that is the same order as  
getConfigurations.
When disableDelimiterParsing is set to true  
xmlConfig.setProperty("path", "a,b,c,d") is adding a backslash before  
each comma. Need to investigate and fix.
Add a ReloadingStrategy that works with files stored in a CMS that is  
accessed via WebDav.
Possibly add "real" WebDAV support to allow files to be versioned when  
stored in the WebDAV repository.
Possibly add support for accessing files via the JSR 170 API.
Possibly refactor all the file access into its own package. Possibly  
either leverage commons vfs or do something simpler.
Go through Jira and look at all the outstanding issues.
Work on the experimental branch.

All the items marked completed I have working on trunk and am  
integrating them into the experimental branch. They should be  
committed in a day or two.
All the items starting with "possibly" I will start a discussion on  
the dev list before doing anything.

Ralph

Of course, used an old template and did not think...
