JaXLib release 0.6.4

JaXLib is a platform independent free open source Java library.
It provides efficient in-memory datastructures for objects and primitive types,
I/O streams and a bunch of related utilities. Many tools for every day tasks
like file system access, event handling and string manipulation are also bundled.

In this release all deprecated methods have been removed.
The constructor signatures of data structures have been changed from e.g.
"ArrayXList(Iterable<E> src)" to "ArrayXList(Iterable<? super E> src)".... read more

It provides efficient in-memory datastructures for objects and primitive types,
I/O streams and a bunch of related utilities. Many tools for every day tasks
like file system access, event handling and string manipulation are also bundled.

A bug has been fixed in the class jaxlib.arc.tar.TarInputStream. It caused
an exception when the underlying stream did not support marking.
The package now also handles Tar files created by some (bogus?)
archivers out there.... read more

like file system access, event handling and string manipulation are also bundled.

This release fixes some bugs and incompatibilities with JDK 1.5rc.
The JDK 1.5rc is required for this release. Earlier beta versions of the JDK 1.5
will not work, because of an additional method which has been added to the
interface java.lang.Appendable.... read more

Recently Sun has published the release candidate of the JDK 1.5.
Because the meaning of some paramters has been changed and new methods have been added to interfaces, the actual release JaXLib 0.5.1 and all previous ones are incompatible with JDK 1.5rc1.

In detail this affects the interface java.lang.CharSequence, which now defines the new method "append(CharSequence, int fromIndex, int toIndex)".
According to that, the meaning of the same methods in StringBuilder and StringBuffer methods has been changed. The last paramter previously was the length of the subsequence to insert, not the "toIndex".... read more

WARNING: Do not use CVS!
I am upgrading to Netbans 4.0. Unfortunately this requires a redesign of the CVS tree. Everything else would take too much time.

This alpha release fixes some bugs of the previous release (see changelog). Beside the fixes some new stuff has been added:
- Filtered (aka "predicated") collections: jaxlib.col.filtered
- Tools for working with java.nio.channels.FileChannels:
jaxlib.io.channel.FileChannels.
- Several routines were optimized.... read more

In this release some changes were applied required to compile JaXLib with the Java SDK 1.5.0beta2.
Also a handfull of bugs in the jaxlib.tcol package were fixed.

This release mainly provides bugfixes, documentation updates and some redesigned packages. The jaxlib.tcol.tchar package now handles Unicode code points.

This is an update for the the Java library JaXLib, fixing bugs found in releae 0.1.

JaXLib contains a wide range of extensions for the Java Collection framework, a similar package for primitive Types, utilities for I/O, Strings and much more.

JaXLib requires at least the Java Runtime 1.5beta1. It consequently uses the new Java generic types.

The datastructures provided by JaXLib are implementing common algorithms as member methods, instead of using external static routines.
This allows more effective performance optimizations, for the cost of bigger classfiles.... read more
