Roth Files

What's new?

5.0.29 - 2019-06-22
- Included runtime compiler classes.  Primarily these are used to dynamically compile generated binder classes for use with JdbcUtil.
- Added a dynamic binder class generator, which combined with the runtime compiler classes are used by JdbcUtil to provide native binding of result sets.  This provides a speed boost of more than 2.5 times over the older reflection binder.  The reflection binder is still in place in case the generation and compilation fails due to unknown class paths.

5.0.27 - 2019-06-08

- Fixed various bugs in Data static class.
- Added wrapper classes for PDFBox, which translate the origin to the upper-left and simplify rendering.

- Added getState/setState JavaScript functions for data grids and split panes.

5.0.18 - 2019-03-05

- Updated information about included 3rd party components.

- Added chart classes for use with ChartJS (still under development).
- Added an openCallback method to JdbcUtil to allow operations to be added between the opening of a JDBC connection, and the execution of queries, updates, or stored procedures.  This is for use with VPDs, among other things.

- Fixed JsonUtil to properly serialize Java objects to JSON (related to @Ignore annotation mentioned earlier).
