Hi, in the TODO list are these two points # Examine the need for all dependencies. Validator has many dependencies that are very lightly used and could be removed. Two likely candidates for removal are commons-collections and ORO. The first because Validator only uses one class in a very large jar and backward incompatible changes in recent versions. The second because it can easily be replaced with the faster and standard Java 1.4 regex engine. # Scenario one: Replace the Jakarta ORO regex engine with the standard Java 1.4 engine. Preliminary tests show a 50% speed improvement using the standard engine. This will remove the ORO dependency and bring Validator in line with standard Java regular expressions. However, this requires a move to Java 1.4 as the base required Java version. A good time for this move may be Validator 2.0 when we also change the configuration file semantics.
This are two tasks which I like to do. Are they still open? Kind regards, Markus --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
