Glazed Lists 1.7.0 Release Notes

Glazed Lists 1.7.0 represents a combination of crucial performance bug fixes and incremental development in focussed areas.

Performance has been improved markedly across the board over 1.6.1 by addressing inefficiencies within ListEventAssembler. A new ListEventPublisher implementation also improves speed and handles dependencies between ListEventListeners more elegantly than its predecessor.

Requested features from our users have also been added in key areas. A new multimap implementation can be used overtop of GroupingLists if optimized reads are desirable and the data changes infrequently. AutoCompleteSupport has been improved to work well with objects that do not implement .toString() in a convenient manner.

Glazed Lists now supports the Maven build system in addition to Ant.
