[Tm4j-announce] TM4J 0.8.0a2 released

[Kal A. <ka...@te...>]

Hi all,

I have made a new development release of TM4J and put it on SourceForge a=
s=20
TM4J 0.8.0a2. This release is primarily focussed on improving the=20
parse/object creation times in the Hibernate back-end. However, I have al=
so=20
updated some of the documentation and started the implementation of a=20
framework for doing future performance testing.

Unfortunately, the biggest performance win in the Hibernate back-end requ=
ired=20
a slight modification to the mapping files and so the database schema use=
d in=20
0.8.0a2 is different from that of 0.8.0a1 - this means that if you have d=
ata=20
you wish to save in a Hibernate back-end created with 0.8.0a1, you should=
=20
export the topic maps to XTM files before upgrading to 0.8.0a2.

Please report any bugs using the bug tracker on the SourceForge page.

Cheers,

Kal
