Re: [Rife-users] MetaData class
Yeah, it's in the 1.4 release I pushed out 2 days ago. I just have so much going on at the moment that Im' not sure when I'll be able to wrap up the release notes.

Actually, no. I still have to write the docs about this. If you have a class Foo and another class FooMetaData that implements the MetaDataMerged interface, RIFE's classloader will automatically make Foo implement all the interfaces of FooMetaData, create a private member variable of FooMetaData for every Foo instance and implement the new interface methods as delegates to the member variable. It can thus be used for any kind of meta information that you want to merge in. The MetaData class in itself however is intended to make it easy for you to do this for constraints, however, you can still implement any other interface.

Re: [Rife-users] MetaData class
Hi Eddy, Am I correct in thinking that the new MetaData class is useful only if applied to JavaBean-compliant classes? Actually, no. I still have to write the docs about this. If you have a class Foo and another class FooMetaData that implements the MetaDataMerged interface, RIFE's classloader will automatically make Foo implement all the interfaces of FooMetaData, create a private member variable of FooMetaData for every Foo instance and implement the new interface methods as delegates to the member variable.
