23 Feb 2003: Jostraca 0.3.2 Released

The major new feature in this version is a significant performance improvement. Jostraca is now far more intelligent about regenerating and recompiling templates and will avoid doing so if it is not necessary. This means that the ant task can finally be used effectively.

A number of resource consumption bugs have also been fixed in this release. Code and error handling consistency have been improved and are moving slowly towards a more structured architecture.

This version includes a new code writer emitter, which is the first part of a new template processing architecture. This new architecture, when complete, will allow the use of structured templates. However, further design work needs to be done before structured templates can be implemented. A design note on this topic will be published once the details are worked out.
