Hi Folks,
Finally, after 8 months of hard work, we have the next production
release of the parser. 1.2 has tons of bug fixes and features.
The change log difference b/w 1.2 and 1.1 is too big to be listed in
this mail - check the change log when you are downloading (its also in the
download package). Documentation has been considerably improved (the Sample
programs would be the place to start). There's a section on the patterns in
action as well. You can modify the rendering process for links and images,
as well as provide collecting parameters to pick up nodes that you wish
(currently images and links supported).
Below is the change log (as compared to last week's integration release)
:
Production Release 1.2
----------------------
[1] Rewrote HTMLLinkProcessor.extract() so URL class does all the heavy
lifting
[2] Partially fixed bug 654746 - HTMLLinkScanner error, code review needed
[3] Rendering bug fixed - allowing uniform rendering for links and images
[4] Fixed bug 655917, made HTMLParameterParser.parseParameters() thread-safe
[5] Refactored HTMLFormTag (introduced POST and GET static members)
[6] Bug fixed in HTMLFormTag.getInputTag() (NullPointerException when input
tag has no name)
[7] Added ability to get textarea tag from HTMLFormTag.
[8] Added search capability in HTMLFormTag
[9] Fixed bug 655627 - JSP tags with < sign (for loops) were not being
parsed correctly
[10] Fixed bug 655603 - JSP tags within src of script not recognized
correctly when using
single apostrophes
[11] Fixed bug 655580 - JSP tags within title tags not recognized correctly
[12] Fixed bug 655599 - Erroneous end-of-line characters were being added in
string nodes
[13] Fixed bug 656870 - HTMLFormScanner goes into infinite loop if a
previous link has not been closed
Thanks to Derrick Oswald and Dhaval Udani for their work on the last few
releases. Thanks to Joe Robins for pointing out an important bug in
HTMLFormScanner. A special mention for Dhaval - all his bug reports come
with testcases making it really easy for us to reproduce the bug and fix
them.
Regards,
Somik
