]]> Releases mkleint 2008-05-07T19:06:40+00:00 Castor 1.2 released http://blogs.codehaus.org/archives/001660_castor_12_released.html The Codehaus Castor team is proud to announce Castor 1.2! Castor is an open source data binding framework, supporting binding of Java objects to both relational databases and XML.

Castor 1.2 incorporates several improvements, mainly in the area of XML code generation and support for Java 5:

* 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.
* Support for native Java 5 code has been improved (includes XML code generation).
* The usage of XML parsers has been completely refactored, incl. the
run-time dependencies.

In addition, a lot of work has been done to prepare for a first (partial) alpha release of the upcoming JAXB support for Castor XML.

Please see the release notes for details about features added and bugs fixed.

Many thanks to those who helped build and test this release!

The core of SXC is an API which allows you to declaritively say what type of XML you’re expecting to be parsing or writing. You can then attach actions to perform when you encounter/write that xml. For instance, you can say you're expecting the “customer” element and you want to do “new Customer()” when I get there. It will then compile an optimized XML parser for you.

SXC includes 3 frontends in addition to its core APIs:

  • JAXB: SXC uses the JAXB annotations to drive compilation of an optimized parser/writer for you at runtime. This runtime is approximately 2-3x faster on the reading side, and about 20-90% faster on the writing side of things.We do not claim JAXB compliance yet, but we support most common JAXB functionality. It has been tested with both CXF and XFire.
  • XPath: SXC can compile down XPath expressions and build an optimized streaming XPath parser for them. Through an XPath event API, you can listen for multiple events as you scan a document. Currently only support a limited subset of XPath expressions is supported.
  • Drools: SXC also includes support for tying in SXC's efficient XPath event API into Drools. One of the things this makes possible is a very efficient XPath based message router. Rules will fire as your XPath criteria are met and you can take action.

For more information see the SXC website, user's guide, or the project announcement.

Interceptors, stub and decorators created by dimple is free of versioning problem (where you implemented two methods declared by version 1 but later on version 2 declares 2 more methods).

The use of dimple is intuitive. It can be viewed as a duck typing solution in Java, where implements SomeInterface is not required for a class for it to be used as SomeInterface.

Jettison is a Java StAX (streaming XML) implementation that reads and writes JSON. This allows you to transparently read/write JSON instead of XML in your applications. In conjunction with Apache CXF (incubating), this allows concurrent building of both XML and JSON web services (HTTP/REST & SOAP) with a simple configuration change.

For more information see the website and user's guide.
