Centipede 1.0.0-beta3 released

The Krysalis Centipede team is proud to announce the 1.0.0-beta3 release of Krysalis Centipede. Krysalis Centipede is a project build system based on Apache Ant. Krysalis Centipede is a project build system based on Apache Ant. Centipede uses pre-packaged modules called "cents" that it downloads and installs automatically. Cents can be used as Ant tasks or easy to use targets.

For example, Forrest is an XML standards oriented project
documentation framework based on Apache Cocoon. In order to assist your
projects adoption of this powerful documentation generation tool
we have packaged it as a cent that will (optionally) be automatically downloaded,
installed and used to build project documentation which includes output from
other cents such as Javadoc, JDepend, Checkstyle and many others.

ChangeLog for Krysalis Centipede 1.0.0-beta3

*) Moved all cents to krysalis-cents. All cents except
core are now auto-downloaded. [chalko]

*) Added document to PDF stylesheet to Avalon and Krysalis
skins. [rgardler]

*) Checkstyle and JDepend output is now skinned to look
like the rest of the site. [rgardler]

*) Cents can now have their output processed by the docs
target by placing xdocs in ${build.xdocs.dir},
thus enabling their output to be skinned. [rgardler]

*) Updated xalan to version 2.3.1 from 2.2.0 in lib/endorsed. [nicolaken]

*) Added a centipede icon to the module directory for
Wintel systems. Just set the centipede dir to read-only,
and a cent will appear instead of the folder icon. [nicolaken]

*) Added a "deploysite" target to the main build.xml
and to the centipede cent. [nicolaken]

*) Now cents can be requested with a specific version
(ie <mycent version="XXX"/>). [nicolaken]

*) Added documentation on how to use Centipede behind
a proxy. [nicolaken]

*) Added a "How to get started" document and a "How to
describing the basics of document generation using
Centipede/Forrest", both only aimed at preventing
the simplest of questions. [nicolaken]

*) Krysalis and Avalon Forrest skin fixes: Added support
for the sub and sup tags of the document dtd, a dded
.fixed class to css (used for code elements) and made
body section of pages fill 100% of remaining space. [nicolaken]

*) Update of checkstyle.cent to version 2.2 and inclusion
of default values that correspond to basic apache-style
conventions, basically as decided by the Apache
POI project. [nicolaken]
