Hi,
I am happy to report that after almost a year, we have finally get XMLC
2.2 to reach a release candidate status. The 2.2 RC 1 is available in
the following URL.
http://forge.objectweb.org/projects/xmlc/
The features highlights of this release
* Better deployment support for containers
Resolve class conflict while deploying XMLC in environment
containing Xerces implementation such as Tomcat and Ant.
* Page reloading is back!
XMLC reloading has been removed in 2.1 release due to its
dependency on servlet containers. Richard Kunze has created a new
paradigm for reloading based on deferred parsing. This change is
independent of the containers.
The word reloading has been a confusing term regarding to XMLC.
This note is trying to clearify the subjects.
* Inclusion of XMLC taskdef from Barracuda project.
The document of how to use the taskdef can be found in Java docs
for org.enhydra.xml.xmlc.taskdef.XMLC. Thanks to Barracuda team.
* Dynamic page loading without pre XMLC compilation
Deferred parsing has been extended to load XMLCObject from HTML
document without compilation.
* Better support for XHTML
XHTML support has been improved.
* XPath example
xpath support is under development. The examples directory has an
example of XPath using JAXEN and JXPath.
