RIFE

Transparent meta data merging has been
implemented, which is a creative solution to
keeping POJOs pure and still make it possible to
declare dynamic meta data in plain Java. Other
highlights of this release are: new (X)HTML
template tag syntaxes, experimental Ajax support
with DWR integration, embedded element priorities,
strict pathinfo mapping, deprecated CmfProperty
and CmfValidation, flowlink-specific datalinks,
mail queue support for authentication and SSL,
support for setting reflexive outputs and
globalvars across submissions, and several
bugfixes.

An important workaround was made for a JDK 1.4 bug
on Windows. Bugfixes were made to some new
features that 1.3 offered. Support for Derby
network driver was added.

Pathinfo mapping for element inputs was automated.
Dynamic embedded element differentiators were
added. JNDI is supported. Spring integration was
improved. Optional exit and output declarations
were implemented. Additional callback methods,
arrival redirection, and RIFE LiveGuide were
added. Important fixes were made to the
classloader.

This is a bugfix release with no new major features. It also contains improvements to the out-of-container testing framework.

The software is now available for licensing under
either the CDDL or the LGPL. Template error
messages are now more detailed. An
out-of-container testing framework was added.
