Changes
===========================

Below you will find the history of changes to JValid.


Version 0.1
===========================

Initial release.


Version 0.2
===========================

* Some code optimization in the Validator class.
  Found that I was creating a lot unecessary temporary objects in when 
  checking data types.  They now use the static methods of their respective
  wrapper class.

* New method added to the Validator class, getObject( "<Contraint_Name>", <Data_To_Check> ).
  This method will return an instance of the appropriate wrapper class to represent the
  data validated.  It will throw a DataValidationException if any validation errors occur.
  You can retrieve a List of the errors by calling getErrorList().

  This method is meant to provide a convient way to perform validation and retrieve the data
  in a usable format.

* New class DataValidationException which is thrown by the getObject() method in Validator on
  validation errors.

* Rewrote the ValidatorTest example so that hopefully the output is more useful.  Also added
  examples of how to use the new getObject() method in Validator.

* Tested JValid with JDOM Beta 6 and Xerces 1.3.  It worked! :)

* Updated the readme to reflect the above.

* The jvalid jar file no longer includes the version number. (i.e. jvalid.jar not jvalid-?.?.jar )

* Created this file :)
