Transformer is now an abstract class with a default init() method.
The Type parameter has been removed from fromPersistent().
The Transformer annotation now has some new attributes that
can be used to hint whether you want a result that is immutable or interned,
the meaning and support of both is completely up to the Transformer.
Brought back my uber Iterable<String> transformers, with immutable/intern
support in a single Transformer.
- interning will intern the strings
- immutable will wrap the collections in Collections.unmodifiable*
(using a guava Immutable collection ends up creating a temporary
builder collection and then copying the elements)
- if immutable AND interning then the collection itself is
"interned".
At some point I'll add support for nearly any Iterable
of an otherwise supported type, so that our Records can have
List<Integer> and other such fields.
Depot Persistence Library ------------------------- Depot is a relational persistence library for Java. It is an ORM library, but has aims that are somewhat different from the popular "managed" persistence libraries like Hibernate and others. Website ------- See the Depot website for documentation and other info: http://code.google.com/p/depot/ Building -------- The library is built using ant. It can be found here: http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/ If you use build-ivy.xml to build, the necessary dependencies will be automatically fetched by Ivy (which will itself be downloaded if needed). To compile the code and generate a jar file, invoke: % ant -f build-ivy.xml dist Invoke 'ant -f build-ivy.xml -p' to see information on other build targets. Depot also provides .classpath and .project files for Eclipse users which require that you set an EXT_LIBS_DIR variable indicating the location of the external jar dependencies. The Depot Eclipse project also depends on the Eclipse project for the samskivert library. That library can be found at: http://code.google.com/p/samskivert/ License and Distribution ------------------------ Depot is released under the LGPL. This means you are free to use Depot on any project, open source or proprietary, but that any modifications made to the library must be made available to the maintainers. See COPYING for more detailed information. The most recent version of the Depot source code is available at the website listed above. $Id$
