I am happy to announce the release of Hibernate Search 3.2 CR1. Crossing fingers, this is the latest release before the final version targeted in a few days.
A good 75% of our time has been spent on bug fixes fresh and old (some even fossilized). But we have also added a few interesting new features:
- we have polished the one we introduced in 3.2 Beta1
- we moved to Lucene 2.9 APIs as a first step towards Lucene 3.0's migration and we also have upgraded to Solr 1.4 for the declarative analyzer framework
- Amin, Sanne and I have been working on a new API to catch and process indexing errors: the default implementation logs the errors but you can write your own custom callback. You could log the failing indexing process to a DB, send a message to a sysadmin, queue the issues for automatic reprocessing etc).
- Hibernate Search 3.2 targets Hibernate Core 3.5 and use some of the new APIs
- a simpler API is at your disposal to add fields to a Lucene document in your custom bridges (thanks Sanne!)
You can download the release from sourceforce or our maven repository and read the documentation. Try it out!
Many thanks for the bug reports / feature requests you have send us: they helped polish this release. Atop the usual suspects, I would like to thank Gustavo Nalle Fernandez and Amin Mohammed-Coleman for their contribution.
