Release Servlex 0.4.0
Florent Georges
I have just released a new version of Servlex, the web
container for end-to-end XML webapps written in XSLT, XQuery and
XProc. See http://code.google.com/p/servlex/ for more info, and
for download and install instructions. Direct link for the
download list is http://code.google.com/p/servlex/downloads/list.
Changes in version 0.4.0 are:
- new features and extension functions to store info at the
request-, session-, application- or server-level
- new extension function to parse HTTP header values into
structured information
- properly cache components once compiled, in addition to lazy
compilation (for XQuery and XSLT, not for XProc, due to a
limitation in Calabash)
- support several request-bodies in XProc, as well as string and
binary request-bodies
- web:* elements are now in a document node and are not anymore
parent-less elements (web:request & web:header)
- servlex.jar is now part of the distribution, in addition to
servlex.war, so one can integrate it in his/her own Java EE
webapp
- the class Servlex can now be extended, and the repository can
be specified in the web.xml
- many little improvements and bug fixes
I am afraid there is still a few documentation about Servlex
and the EXPath Webapp Module it implements. You can browse above
links as well as the pages http://expath.org/wiki/Webapp and
maybe http://fgeorges.org/wiki/EXPath#Servlet for more info.
