Springtime for Domuswap

No it’s not what you think. Actually, I have no idea what you are thinking, with a meaningless title like that. Actually, I am getting a bit techy here, so please close your browser now or risk ultimate boredom.

Still here? Excellent!

Domuswap was originally written using a Java framework I created called the XX framework. Over time, another excellent framework emerged, called the Spring framework. Spring encompasses most (though not all) of what XX did, plus much, much more. Most importantly, Spring has a very large and active developer community, something that XX never really achieved.

Since Spring was essentially XX+++ (++ just isn’t doing it justice), I recently completed migration of the XX Framework to sit on top of the Spring core. Essentially, I took what is uniquely useful about the XX framework and enabled it to work with Spring. A large part of XX can now (thankfully) be thrown away, using features integral to Spring in its place. In the future, XX will have an even tighter integration with Spring.

We just released the latest version of Domuswap, running as you read this, using the Spring core. It is certainly possible, almost likely, that some issues will come up over the next few days. Please let tech support know if anything seems unusual.
