20 September 2012 - Torque-4.0-beta1 released

This release of the Torque 4 branch allows feedback before the 4.0 release. The main changes with respect to Torque 3.3 are:

• The "look and feel" of Torque 3 was maintained.
• The generator is now a general-purpose code generator.
• As the templates are now modular, it is easy to extend or modify the generated code without having to replace the whole templates.
• A new Criteria implementation was created, with slightly changed semantics. The old Criteria implementation was retained but deprecated.
• Prepared statements are sued throughout all queries.
• Column names are now encapsulated in objects.

16 February 2010 - new Generator, Templates and Maven plugin

The generator was replaced with a brand-new general purpose code generator. The templates have been adopted to match this change. A new Maven plugin integrates the new generator in a Maven 2/3 build. An Ant tasks project integrates the new generator in an Ant build.

07 September 2008 - Torque 4 branch created

The idea of Torque 4 is to allow major reworking of the internals of Torque 3. The usage of Torque should not change much, however, some more exotic features could change. Some of the ideas are:

• Replace the village library
• Provide an alternative to the static peer classes
• ...
