Tapestry Support Network News - September 2005

September 25 2005 - Tapestry 4.0-beta-8 Released

September 19 2005 - Tapestry 4.0-beta-7 Released

The latest beta release of Tapestry 4.0 is now available. Tapestry is a component based web application framework that provides lots of functionality with minimal Java coding, and creates an environment that supports high levels of reuse. This is another a bug fix release, building on the beta-6 release. This release continues to fill in missing component documentation, and improved error reporting in a number of areas. Further, component types may now include slashes (to allow organizing them into folders, in the same way that pages can be organized). Class names of managed beans may now be abbreviated, much like the way page and component class names may be abbreviated. A full listing of bug fixes is available in the change log.
