jGnash 2.33.1 - Important Update

[Craig Cavanaugh]

jGnash 2.33.1 has been released!

Upgrading is highly recommended!

jGnash is available from the usual download location.   https://sourceforge.net/projects/jgnash/files/latest/download 

This release corrects a regression in Release 2.33.0 that is preventing the loading of some xml and bxds files in addition to some other minor issues and improvements.  The error appears to be a bit random, so upgrading is highly recommended.

If you are having an issue, the best solution is to open the file using 2.32.0 and save as a .h2.db, .mv.db, or a .script database file and then open in release 2.33.1  You may them save back to a .xml or .bxds file.  The database formats will always provide for the best system crash protection.

There have also been some minor changes to allow operation under Java 9 with use of the --add-modules java.xml.bind command line option 'after' java and before -jar.  The manual details the normal command line options.

The detailed list of changes is below.

Thanks,

Craig
