AcrIS 1.2.0 Release

[Ladislav Gazo]

Dear AcrIS developers,

after a delay from estimated date, we are pleased to announce you the
release of AcrIS with version 1.2.0. The goal of the release was huge
and can be summarized like this (more info here -
http://code.google.com/p/acris/wiki/Roadmap):

Features

- introduced profiles to allow you to quickly start with
Processors, GWT client, AppEngine? project development
- writing Java Annotation Processors from now on will be a piece
of cake with AcrIS
- we implemented Mutable API to be able to easily transform
types and write annotation processors in clear way
- delegated configuration might help you when you don't want
to polute existing (or even new) objects with processor-specific
annotations
- there are several prepared annotation processors:
- for generating portable domain interfaces
- generating DTOs and convertion layers between server and
client layer
- first sketch of appconstructor - scaffolding platform
using annotations
- GWT service layer processors
- JSON data migration helps you to transform your data between
versions
- your sites and applications in production environment should be
constantly monitored with Asmant monitoring tool deployable to
AppEngine?
- two new widgets to support dynamic layouts:
- DynamicUiBinder alternate to UiBinder? and Micro template
panel for complete dynamics of data representation
- testing became integral part of AcrIS framework so we developed
supporting layer for Selenium

Announcements

- current development was performed on the branch 1.1.x and for
future versions will be moved back to the trunk. Current trunk will be
moved to 1.0.x branch.
- beans binding part of AcrIS is discontinued and will be
maintained for the purpose of old projects only - we recommend to use
GWT's Editor framework.

So again, don't hesitate and try it !
