During the last weeks, a couple of JSF-related frameworks and component libraries have been evaluated in order to find the future directon for the Explorer. Dropping JSF in general has never been an option, but a little bit more Web 2.0 would be nice. However, finally JBoss RichFaces became the component library of choice which is intended to solve some issues. First of all, the navigation should be changed to a nice Explorer-like tree view. Furthermore, the GUI should get a facelift and become a little bit more robust. Not really required, but definitely nice to have and useful is the built-in AJAX support that comes with RichFaces. So far, the integration runs pretty smoothly so that the release of RichFaces-powered JCR-Explorer 0.9.6 can hopefully roll out soon.
The binary download for the new version 0.9.5 is now available! Other packages will follow soon. Changelog for version 0.9.5: ===New Features=== * BinaryViewerServlet fixed (JCR session was not available) Thx to Markus Reis for digging me into that * CSS tuning * Multi-value expansion now uses JcrUtils.getEmptyValue() and is now possible with all property types * Query and query results are put together into one page (query.jsp) * Export provides now the choice between exporting SystemView DocumentView * Changed the order of elements to follow the DTD (some app server validate on deploy) --> thanks to Tako Schotanus * Added Lock as a new Module (*.module.lock, LockWrapper). Initially showing Lock info of the selected node in separate tab * JSF message output added to login.jsp, errors on login are displayed now * Initial version of observation console implemented (#1726725) ===Bugfixes=== * StringValues of References should only contain the UUID (#1735766) * Properties of type PATH and NAME become STRING on save (#1720569) * Refactored packages to org.jcrexplorer.* (#1763880) * 'Go' button in title bar now switches view to content panel (#1770673) For open issues please look at the issue tracking here on SourceForge!
Short before a new release 0.9.5 is planned to roll out a new download is availabe: the binary package of JCR-Explorer that doesn't require a build from scratch. No need to use Maven, no need to build anything. Just download, extract and deploy and it should work.
