Change Log

1.6.0

PENDING

1.14.3

Compiled against Groovy 1.6.0. Project has been refactored to a Maven 2 build to make it easier to maintain and easier to include in "enterprise" projects. Type libraries have been broken out into separate JARs.  The core Scriptom JAR is once again very lightweight (about 50KB). Jacob classes are no longer bundled into Scriptom, making it easier to install into J2EE apps.  Jacob DLLs now use their default names, making it easier to use Jacob with Java in parallel with Scriptom in Groovy.  There is an assembly project that contains all the artifacts necessary to install into a non-Maven (non-Ivy) build - for use by the Windows Installer.  This build contains no new features and no bug fixes.

1.5.0 b8

12/7/2007

1.14M5

The release version of Groovy will be 1.5.  Scriptom's major and minor version numbers are being changed to match the supported version of Groovy.  Added version info to manifest. Jar file is marked as "sealed."  Recompiled to Groovy 1.1 rc3 and Jacob 1.14 M5. 
Scriptom no longer uses the jacob.dll because of the potential for naming conflicts with other versions on the same machine.   The 32-bit and 64-bit dlls have been renamed so that they can coexist on the same machine - with other versions as well. Scriptom will automatically find the correct version of the DLL for the JVM you are running.

Refactored EventArguments into standalone class, from an inner class of ActiveXObject (this change should not normally affect existing code). Fix for bugs due to BigDecimal-to-Decimal conversion overflows. Improved support for unsigned integer types.  Uses Jacob 1.14 M5.
