[FormProc-developer] Recent Modifications

[Anthony E. <me...@an...>]

Greetings all,

Here is an update on recent modifications to FormProc.  After a little more work I will be releasing FormProc 1.0b2.  If
there are no more significant issues after that then I will release 1.0.

Changes:

Added pluggable message providers for FormElement messages and validator error messages.  Provided two implementations
which support previous message types (inline and ResourceBundles).  This pluggability should greatly improve how error
messages are provided.

Added support for default values in FormElements.  If a null or empty String value is submitted then the default value
is used instead if it is specified.

Added annotated configuration files to the documentation and detailed comments to DTDs.  Hopefully this will make it
easier to understand the variety of configuration options in FormProc.


Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Sincerely,
Anthony Eden
