So: one big thing that has occupied my time for past month or two, in Jackson space, has been:
https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-databind/issues/1954 "Add Builder pattern for creating configured `ObjectMapper` instances" and its buddy (https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-databind/issues/1955) Work is 98% complete, and would be 100% if I had not started tackling polymorphic type handling (with emphasis on changing "default typing" setup), which is closely related to last pieces of Builder-changes. Anyway: the reason I am sending a note now is that this change has resulted in huge changes into all modules, and there is much to discuss about that, regarding exactly "how big" a change 3.x will be, and what it means wrt Maven, java package names. But I do not want to start that discussion quite yet until stabilizing codebase -- polymorphic type changes are still in process and (as of today) cause compilation problems for some modules (Ion backend, XML module). Once I am through them, I'll get back to describe changes, current plans, in much more detail. And anyone who wants to check 3.0.0-SNAPSHOT, apologies for bit of instability. Changes will be worth it in many ways, but right now code is quite...elastic. :) -+ Tatu +- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jackson-dev" group.
