JSON-RPC-Java

The license has changed from the LGPL to the
Apache License, Version 2.0. New object
registration, lookup, and unregister APIs have
been added to JSONRPCBridge.

The manual was updated with documentation for References and LocalArgResolvers. Javadoc updates were made. Clustering support was added along with a ErrorInvocation callback interface. Bugs in the JSON-RPC JavaScript client were fixed.

The ability to handle generic Object and Interface
method signatures was added. The date marshalling
format was changed to milliseconds. The ability to
cancel async requests was added. The protocol was
updated for closer conformance with the JSON-RPC
specification.

This release featured public access to many APIs, automatic conversion of numeric String types into methods with Number signatures, a splitting out of the POJO serializer code so it can be used separately, and support for stateless usage with no need for HttpSession. An information leak of protected method names was fixed. Many other small bugfixes and enhancements were made.

This release contains many updates and bugfixes
including Unicode and other character set support (UTF-8,
ISO-8859-1 have been tested), asynchronous support, a
Unicode test suite, a regression test suite, a dictionary
demo, a browser compatibility database, a "Hello World"
sample app, tutorial and manual updates, and a protocol
sync with the JSON-RPC spec.
