Aranea Blog

After a month of development, the new release is ready. Most of the effort was devoted to improvement, and here is a quick overview of major changes:

• lists have built-in support for PostgreSQL - PostgreListSqlHelper;

• lists have built-in support to filter rows requiring the value to start or end with the user-provided value;

• new tags for a list row check box (<ui:listRowCheckBox/>, <ui:listSelectAllCheckBox/>) and a list row radio button (<ui:listRowRadioButton/>);

• a bug was fixed that caused Aranea MVC to not work with the Safari browser.

The release should be backward compatible with the previous release. For more information, please see the changelog.txt in the release bundle, or the reference manual.

In addition, the documentation (JavaDoc, the reference manual) was updated to cover more subjects and to support the programmers using Aranea. You may also find useful the TLD doc about the Aranea tags, which is also accessible from the documentation page.

Now that we have tried to improve the support, we are also interested in receiving feedback on what could be improved next. For example, any missing guides in the reference manual, or particular undocumented classes/methods. Our forum and Changelogic can be used to inform us. Meanwhile, we also try to improve the documentation ourselves with each new release.

While we work for the next release, we are also open to any bug reports and feature requests through our forum or Changelogic.

Last but no least, we also want to thank all the Aranea users who have reported any issues with Aranea! We also encourage others to make themselves be heard

Enjoy!
