XWork 1.0.1 ReleasedThe OpenSymphony group is proud to announce the release of XWork 1.0.1. This new release paves the way for future versions of WebWork as well as new products such as "SwingWork" and other concepts that are thought up every day by OpenSymphony's active community.
New FeaturesThe biggest addition to XWork is the new ObjectFactory which allows for tight integration to other projects such as Spring and Pico. Not only that, the ObjectFactory is very useful to integrate XWork in to your existing project infrastructure. Documentation (both reference manuals and JavaDocs) have been greatly improved as well. Bug FixesThere have been several important bug fixes, the most important is a performance-related bug fix that makes the expression language magnitudes faster. This also solved an extremely rare problem where some applications would lock up. Special ThanksSpecial thanks go out to Bill Lynch of Jive Software for helping with all the added JavaDocs. Mark Woon has also done a superb job assisting with bug fixes, new features, and documentation. About XWorkXWork is a generic command pattern implementation and inversion of control (IoC) container.
