[morph-announce] Morph 0.8.3 Released

[Matt S. <mat...@sp...>]

Hi everyone,

Morph 0.8.3 is now available.  The principle focus of this release was 
to provide you with support for transformations of cyclic graphs and 
transformations of untyped collections of objects of one type to untyped 
collections of objects of another type (e.g. List of PersonDAOs to List 
of PersonVOs).  In detail, the changes in this release are:

    * Performance improvements. It's difficult to quantify exactly how
      much better performance is, but the test suite now takes around 3
      seconds to execute on my laptop, whereas it used to take around 8
      seconds.
    * Improved support for nested transformations using the PropertyName
      copiers, ContainerCopier.
    * Morph now supports transformations of cyclic graphs.
    * net/sf/morph/morphContext.xml is a Spring application context file
      available as a classpath resource. This file defines common beans
      that you may need to reference in an application built on Spring.
    * Improved log output.
