The new EchoSVG project has altered the css4j release calendar (3.3 was scheduled for February in
Github's milestone list).
EchoSVG is using the latest exported APIs from the library, and instead of forcing its users to build css4j from source, I decided to release a 3.3 that could be used by them just now.
So a new version 3.3.0 is available from the usual places:
This new version fixes almost no bugs (only a couple of native DOM compliance fixes) so you may decide to just skip it. However, it also carries the following:
- DOM: new DOMElement.getInnerText().
- CSSOM: support the :dir() pseudo-class in computed styles, important for users of arabic and other right-to-left languages.
In the case of the DOM4J backend the :dir() support is only partial, due to incomplete DOM api support by DOM4J.
