Big Changes for HotSheet
There's a new release of HotSheet on the server (upgrade is automatic next time you run it). It has several big changes:
- News items are automatically filtered out and not added to the list if they've been added before. You can now refresh without clearing the list and not get duplicates!
- The released version will show both the current version number and the build number in the about box.
- (For Developers) There is a standard Java events and listeners system in the RSS library now. You can listen to events on the ItemStore and ChannelStore and just react to them if that is a more natural model for your program. There is also a new demonstration program that shows events and listeners and demontrates the basics of using the item and channel stores.
- (For Developers) The demonstration programs have been broken out into their own jar to make HotSheet a smaller deployment.
