Common Components™ News - Common Components™ SDK v1.5.1 now available.

Common Components SDK v1.5.1 is now available for download. This version has been upgraded to depend upon Bootstrap 1.4.0 and places assemblies in the GAC to support installation of multiple versions.

Expanded Reference Support:

Two new types of References have been added: type-constrained and thread-local. The Reference interface has been split into two two base interfaces: readable and writeable. That last bit forced us to change the interface for Reference. Instead of having a property named "Value," it now has two methods: GetValue and SetValue. We hope this hasn't caused anyone too great an inconvenience but better now than later. The benefits outweigh the costs.

Lease Management:

This is the big block of new value added in version 1.5.0. Lease Management allows you to provide an easy interface to consumers of a resource while injecting as simple or complex an ownership management model as you like underneath.

Other Gadgets:

While we're not ready to call it a full-on framework, we've started laying the foundation of an Unstable Resource Management framework. Take a look at the UnstableResourceScope type.

FREE:

Common Components is still completely FREE.
