Notes:
Changes in this release
1)Perola has been divided into 3 distinct libraries :
-perola_core-Z.Z.Z-bin.jar
That's the only required JAR to use Perola. It contains all core classes, whitout drivers
and collections. Third party drivers must be supplied.
-perola_collection-Z.Z.Z-bin.jar
Contains only the collections developed by the Perola's team.
-perola_drivers-Z.Z.Z-bin.jar
Contains only the drivers developed by the Perola's team.
2)Classes packages changes will require updates in source files that use of them.
Changes:
From
perola.core.drivers.DriverPerolaForFileSystem

perola.drivers.DriverPerolaForFileSystem
From
perola.core.drivers.DriverPerolaForJDBC
To

From

3)PerolaList is now deprecated, but was updated to support Generics.
4)New collections and maps available, all of them supports Generics
-Available Collections and their corresponding Java Collections:
PerolaTreeSet - TreeSet
PerolaLinkedList - LinkedList
PerolaLinkedHashSet - LinkedHashSet
PerolaHashSet - HashSet
PerolaArrayList - ArrayList
-Available Maps and their corresponding Java Maps:
PerolaTreeMap - TreeMap
PerolaLinkedHashMap - LinkedHashMap
PerolaHashTable - Hashtable
PerolaHashMap - HashMap
Obs.: There is not compatibility between PerolaLinkedList and PerolaList.
5)There has been a major change in the way Perola handles arrays due to
serious bugs found in this functionality.
As a consequence THE WAY THIS VERSION PERSISTS AND READ ARRAYS IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH ANY PREVIOUS RELEASES OF PEROLA.
6)PerolaException is now an unchecked exception. That was made to avoid
try/catch clauses whenever calling any methods from Perola Collections or Maps.
7)Information inside error logs is now more concise.
