Change in spring-webflow.dtd

[pglezen]

It seems that the spring-webflow.dtd file available at

http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-webflow.dtd

is no longer compatible with pr5. It's not that big a deal since webflow code itself looks within the classpath rather than the internet for its DTD (if it needs it at all). But my IDE (RAD 6), validates XML via the system ID of the DTD definition. This presents me with various validation errors about entry vs entry-action tags and what-not.

Of course, I just ignore them. It all runs fine. But I'm curious about where in the Web Flow release cycle these changes will be incorporated. PR6? RC1?

Paul,

That's a good point. I'll put the PR5 dtd back. Sorry for the inconvenience!

You can expect these latest changes in RC1, due out with Spring 1.3 RC1 -- hopefully in the coming weeks.

Okay this is taken care of. Expect the dtd to stay as is until we have a next release, at which expect:

<entry> to become <entry-action>
<exit> to become <exit-action>

We're still debating if we'll merge in support for spring bean definitions within a <webflow>, or if we'll support just a <import-beans> element. But that decision won't impact existing users.
