The ProcessMap.xml file shipped with the 1.2.20030722 release of Imago includes references to files found in the ImagoX extension package. If the ImagoX extensions are not installed the Imago will generate a NullPointerException. If Imago is to be used without ImagoX then the ImagoX transform and req elements in the ProcessMap.xml file must be commented out. This is a work around Bug 480412. The enclosed Processmap.xml file found in the imago_1.2.20030722_B_480412.zip file of the current release has the ImagoX lines commented out.

The historical Imago and ImagoX releases have been moved from the Xenei project (http://www.xenei.org) to the Imago project (http://imago.xenei.org). The Xenei project will continue to host the current release but only the Imago project will maintain the historical releases.

The historical Thales releases have been moved from the Xenei project (http://www.xenei.org) to the Thales project (http://thales.xenei.org). The Xenei project will continue to host the current release but only the Thales project will maintain the historical releases.

This is the first Xenei Utils 1.2 version release. Changes in the structure of the classes may require modification of code using this package. See changes noted in the change log (http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=171616) or the Changes.html file in the standard package for details. In addition to fixing several bugs in the scheduler and the cache implementations, this change introduces the org.xenei.util.sax package which contains a class for splitting SAX events and sending them to multiple XMLFilters. Several of the changes may require slight modifications applications that use the package. The package now includes classes for caching with memory, DB, tiered, and null implementations, classes to abstract DB schema and data manipulation, a simple scheduler, classes to support presenting version information, handle configurations, sorting, queueing, comparing, locating resources, and searching ordered containers. Junit test code is not shipped with the packages but is available from the CVS repository (http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xenei/) in the utilTest project.

Xenei.org is pleased to announce the Imago and Thales projects have been promoted.
