| Jars |
| ---- |
| |
| BeanUtils now comes packaged (into jars) in two different ways: |
| |
| an all-in-one jar (commons-beanutils.jar); |
| and as modular component jars: |
| commons-beanutils-core.jar (core classes) |
| commons-beanutils-bean-collections.jar (additional dependency on commons-collections 3.0) |
| |
| Those who want it all should grab the all-in-one jar (and the optional dependencies) |
| whereas those who need minimal dependencies should use commons-beanutils-core.jar |
| plus any optional jars they plan to use. |
| |
| All classes that were in the last release are in commons-beanutils-core except for BeanComparator. |
| |
| Commons-Collections |
| ------------------- |
| BeanUtils now ships with a small number of commons collections classes. |
| This is a temporary measure intended to allow BeanUtils core to be used with |
| either commons-collections 2 or commons-collections-3 without a dependency on either. |
| It is intended that soon BeanUtils core will have no dependency on any commons collection |
| packaged classes. |
