Hi all, I don't think any of the remaining submissions for Collections are ready for release yet, so I plan to prepare a Release Candidate and call a release vote within the next few days. I still think the BeanMap documentation is weak, but I'm not going to hold up the release because of that. I may spend some time trying to ferret out some of the undocumented bug fixes.
The unit tests for Collections now pass (thanks Michael!) - Morgan P.S. Complete release digest follows... COLLECTIONS 2.0 DIGEST (03/14/2002) ----------------------------------------------------------- The following is a synopsis of the Collections 2.0 release effort to date. RELEASE NOTES DRAFT ------------------- (Updated 3/7/2002) http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-commons/collections/RELEASE-NOTES-2.0. html ISSUES --------------- BeanMap: Make sure all variations from "typical" Maps are documented in Javadocs. IMO, BeanMap is very light on JavaDocs All Collections: There are definitely bug fixes that are not being documented. If you fixed bugs (or added new features) since 1.0, you will want to document them in the release notes. PENDING COLLECTIONS ------------------- DirtyFlagMap: Per the email sent by James House (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=jakarta-commons-dev&m=101406634514652&w=2). Will be reviewed by Michael Smith unmodifiableIterator: Proposal sent to the mailing list (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=jakarta-commons-dev&m=101462232021093&w=2). Tree & StandardTree: Proposal sent to the mailing list (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=jakarta-commons-dev&m=101561962307536&w=2). Author is preparing unit tests. DelegateMap: Proposal sent to the mailing list (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=jakarta-commons-dev&m=101562102311707&w=2). COMPLETED --------- (3/14/2002) Unit tests in TestBeanMap are now correct, as are the tests in TestBag. (3/7/2002) All new Comparators are now Serializable and have some unit tests. Added ComparatorChain class. (2/26/2002 and before) Copies of all Serializable collections have been checked into CVS for compatibility testing. Unit tests suggest that only LRUMap has changed its External form. (Note: these unit tests are sanity checks only; they're not infallible.) Michael and I added lots of other new unit tests too. Added descriptions (based on JavaDocs) of all new Collections to the STATUS.html file. There are still several 1.0 Collections that were never documented in the STATUS.html file. Volunteers welcome. Converted release notes to HTML and added descriptions of all new Collections. All relevant Collections from the Commons UTIL package added. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
