JPublish 1.2 Released

Version 1.2 of the JPublish web application framework is now available at http://www.jpublish.org/ .

JPublish is an open source web publishing framework which merges the Velocity template engine from the Jakarta Apache group with a content repository and application control framework. Like all good web frameworks, JPublish provides a clean separation of code, content, and layout.

This release includes the following changes: Added BeanShell support for actions. BeanShell JAR is included with the distribution. Added PageManager.putPage() method. Added TemplateManager.putTemplate() method. Added Template.getText() and Template.setText() methods. Template.getReader() is now a protected method. Fixed bug in PathAction configuration loading. Configuration passed to the ActionWrapper was the site configuration instead of the specific action's configuration. Fixed bug in XMLPageManager with page definition loader. Added AbstractFileSystemRepository. FileSystemRepository and ExtendedFileSystemRepository now extend from this abstract base class. Added Repository.getPaths() methods and implemented in all repositories.
