[ini4j]

Change log

Fix file close problem: in some case IniFile and IniParser left files open. This cause file deletion problem on some OS.
Fix Unicode escape problem: \u sequences now generated correctly (4 character with leading zeros)

Added maven repository support: http://www.ini4j.org/repository/release and http://www.ini4j.org/repository/snapshot

Refactored code for customization: Ini, IniPreferences, IniParser now also handle URL as input. It makes possible to create C like #include directive at IniParser level, when using URL as input source.
Added include feature to FancyIniParser: location mean: '' and ' ' token, location is either relative or absolute URL of include file. Unlimited level of includes allowed. Relative URLs only allowed, when container file loaded via URL (not via stream or reader).
IniFile got getMode() and getFile() accessor methods.
PreferencesWrapper class in addon package to support decorator design pattern for java.util.Preferences objects.
StrictPreferences decorator class, which has getXXX methods without default parameter, and throws java.util.NoSuchElementException on missing values instead of returning default value.

As per many programmers request, finally [ini4j] backported to JDK 1.4. There is a ini4j-compat.jar and retroweaver-rt*.jar in distribution directory. These 2 jar need for JDK 1.4 to use [ini4j]. Every JUnit test run successfully, so I'm sure that [ini4j] work correctly with JDK 1.4 (JUnit test coverage ~ 98% :)
I like retroweaver tool, so I'd like to mentoin here: retroweaver.sorceforge.net and forked project (I used for ini4j) retroweaver-ng.sourceforge.net

removed some private constructor (cosmetic change)
added factory design pattern for IniParser class: it is possible now to change IniParser implementation at runtime: either "org.ini4j.IniParser" system property or META-INF/services/org.ini4j.IniParser file is the configuration point. This is conform with JAR specifications service definition.
Thanx this to James Ahlborn and Steve Buschman. They are suggested some changes in IniParser. I disagree with the changes, but I made the possibility of changing IniParser without change Ini4j source :)
added org.ini4j.addon package for optional classes.
added org.ini4j.addon.FancyIniParser as alternate parser with following features: - option without = operator mean empty option - empty section names [] mean empty string as section name - first section tag ([name]) is optional, by default it is same as [] - section and/or option names may be converted to lowercase while parsing

fixed xhml bugs in documentation
set java.util.prefs.PreferencesFactory property in IniPreferencesFactoryListener
fix AbstractBeanInvocationHandler#getProperty(), now it returns zero() if getPropertySpi() returns null
hasProperty method in AbstractBeanInvocationHandler: if interface has hasXXX method, it will return true if bean has XXX property.

fixed logo png in CVS
support for webapps: IniPreferencesFactoryListener webapp can use /WEB-INF/user.ini and /ERB-INF/system.ini as user and system root preferences

Java Beans style interface for sections and for ini too. You should pass interface to Ini.Section.to() (or Ini.to()) and you get a Java object implements passed interface on top of Ini.section (or Ini). Not only setXX and getXX works well, but property change listeners and vetoable change listeners also supported.
Variable substitution for option values. You can use $section/option style substitution expressions in any option value.
Reorganize XML parsing: now IniParser has parseXML method, which simply translate SAX callbacks to IniHandler callbacks
Create Convert class for unicode escape conversion: escape and unsecape methods.
