This release is finally done earlier than planed due to some serious performance regressions in 2.0.0-M2.

• 4 bug fixes :
  • Calling IoBuffer.slice() in CumulativeProtocolDecoder.doDecode() can cause data corruption.
  • Big performance drop in 2.0M2 CumulativeProtocolDecoder for large messages.
  • Running tests leave files in /tmp.
  • The proxy sample does not work - results in a NullPointerException.
• 3 improvements :
  • Moved ExceptionMonitor from core to util
  • IoFuture::isReady is renamed to isDone.
  • Port the 'Haiku' example to 1.0 and trunk.

This is a milestone release and is not yet considered suitable for production use. This release improve the code structure, documentation and provide bug fix and improvement since 2.0.0-M2. We are waiting your feedback for the next release.

The 1.1.0 release is a Java 5 port of Apache MINA 1.0.x, which employed the new language features in Java 5 (i.e. generics and covariant return type). Existing applications based on MINA 1.0.x can be ported to MINA 1.1.0 with very little effort.

Distributions are available from the download page here: http://mina.apache.org/downloads.html
