Version 1.2

Hey all,

Raul suggested recently that we do a 1.2 release of the Java library.  I 
think that's a great idea - there are a lot of fixes and improvements 
that have been done that would make good sense.

I'd also like to do a release of the C library - I have a fairly 
functional message factory for XKISS messages, and there have been some 
fixes in the C library that it would be good to get out.

Thoughts?

Should we aim for mid October?

Cheers,
	Berin

Cool!

I might have a go at packaging up a 1.2 release candidate and see how it 
looks!

This sunday I'd finished commited all the things my todo list and little
more:
  -Cleaned the eclipse warnings in the src directory
  -wrap all debug with isDebugEnabled().
  -remove the use of xpath in configuration readed.
  -Improve a little the signing speed(about 1%).

All my targets setted for 1.2 have been complished. So it's time to test
,report bugs, and (if someone has) benchmarks comparing 1.1 with current
cvs head version.

+1

We do this manually with xmlsec and Xerces when checking them into our cvs.

I just ran the full test suite for xml-security off the latest cvs. 
I do not have reference for the run time before...
Tell me if you want my logs.

test target
========
I had one error at the end from junitreport after running the test
target
[junitreport] The file
C:\dev\workspace\xml-security\build\docs\xml\junit\TEST-org.apache.xml.s
ecurity.test.encryption.XMLCipherTester.xml is not a valid XML document.
It is possibly corrupted.
That file is just empty. I just ignored  that and kept trucking.

test_exc_c14n target
========
Junit not being in the libs dir in CVS, the build failed....
I added it, and it ran fine, and I kept trucking.

test_xenc target
=========
Failed, with some No Class found, but I probbaly do not have the right
JCE/crypto config, off a vanilla 1.42_05 JDK
Did not have the time to dig further. I just ignored it
and I kept trucking....

I then ran a dist, and ran the full test suite on our nexb project.
They ran fine, including our perfs tests, so whatever changes you made
are not seen on our side speed wise.
But keep in mind that we are using mostly c14 and exclusive c14n for
now.


By the way, it would nice ass you are releasing a new version if you
were to adopt the convention of putting the release version in the Jar
names.
ie xml-security-1.1.0.jar is much better than xmlsec.jar
I got bitten by that more than once....
Ever since I always keep religiously track of all my jars versions...
Doing it for the depdendent jars you distribute is also always a good
idea.
It helps escape the Jar Hell!

I've just commited the last part of the memory reduction patch(in spirit 
of what i describe in 
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30455). It seems that 
the patch slows the test a little(<5%) I don't know how big the impact 
is when using in real world examples(I don't think it will be too much, 
but if anyone can post his own results we can check for sure).
It will be great if it can be test as wild as possible as there some big 
changes in it.

In my TODO list before the release are:
    - Wrap all log.debug method with if (log.isDebugEnable()) { 
log.debug() }
    - If there is some time, read the config.xml with DOM instead of 
XPATH and store the data in POJ structures.

Raul.

That would be great!
For now, I distribute a library that I did build from CVS, since the
current CVS is so much better than the last release!
It works great and I have :
- NO tests failure,
- NO user complains ort bug reports
Tell if you need any help.
The sooner the better!

+1 for both 1.2 and mid October so I have time to finish committing the
memory reduction improvment.
