Hi all, Just getting back into the swing of things after vacation. Seems like a bit of activity in configuration, so I hope I don't accidentally step on anyone's toes.. I was really hoping that getVector had been eradicated everywhere.. I know we spent quite a lot of effort doing that. But, maybe as far as turbine is concerned, it was only in the 2.4 branch...
At any rate, since it is marked as deprecated, and Henning has put back all the unit tests, I guess we can let it lie... I hate releasing a 1.0 w/ deprecated code, on the other hand, getting to 1.0 is the main job! Eric > -----Original Message----- > From: Henning P.
