1 This is the Java API for the Light Weight Event System.
5 - JDK 1.6.x (http://java.sun.com/)
6 - Maven 2.2.x (http://apache.maven.org/)
12 If you want to create the distribution add the following targets:
14 javadoc:jar assembly:assembly
17 To increase the read buffer size on the multicast socket, set the system property
18 MulticastReceiveBufferSize. For example,
20 java -DMulticastReceiveBufferSize=8388608 ...
24 Allow one to override the size check that is done as part of the Event class. Size
25 really only matters if one is intending on emitting the created event not if they
26 are reading it from a file. Also allow introspection into Event to get the size in
30 0.2.1 -> 0.2.2 Changes
31 - If the size of the event is too large an EventSizeException will be thrown
32 instead of an EventSystemException.
33 - Fixed a bug with the MulticastEventEmitter where it was closing the socket
34 before calling super.shutdown which was trying to send a System::Shutdown message.
35 - Added the ability to set a maximum capacity on the internal queue used by the
36 ThreadedProcessor. If you set the queue size, you can avoid out of memory exceptions,
37 but you run the risk of dropping events on the floor (it would depend on how fast
38 you are processing events and how big your network buffer is).
41 0.1.1 -> 0.2.0 Changes
42 - I removed the files that are autogenerated by javacc and made it part of the build.
43 The .java files will end up in target/generated-sources/javacc if you are interested in
46 - I also nuked the ant build.xml file. I don't want to support both ant and maven and imo,
49 - Added more unit tests
51 - Allow post event creation validation
53 - Use LinkedBlockingQueues where possible to retain event order and help synchronization.
55 - I removed AttributeNotSetException because throwing an exception if an attribute isn't set
56 in the event should not be the proper behavior (after all, HashMap and the like do not do this).
