docx4j 3.0 (beta for which will be available shortly) contains a lot of changes, some big, some small.<\/p>\n
Here are the most visible (see our changelog<\/a> for the rest):<\/p>\n Logging<\/strong><\/p>\n docx4j 3.0 uses slf4j, instead of log4j.<\/p>\n As the slf4j website puts it:<\/p>\n The Simple Logging Facade for Java (SLF4J) serves as a simple facade or abstraction for various logging frameworks (e.g. java.util.logging, logback, log4j) allowing the end user to plug in the desired logging framework at\u00a0deployment<\/em> time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n So you need the slf4j api jar on your classpath:<\/p>\n <dependency> If you want to use log4j, then include it, and:<\/p>\n <dependency> XHTML Import<\/strong><\/p>\n The XHTML Import functionality is now a separate project on GitHub<\/a>.<\/p>\n The reason being that its main dependency – Flying Saucer –\u00a0is licensed under LGPL v2.1 (as opposed to ASL v2, which docx4j’s other dependencies use).<\/p>\n If you want this functionality, you have to add these jars to your classpath. \u00a0We’ll update this post with their coordinates once they are in Maven Central.<\/p>\n Docx4j facade<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n You don’t have to use this – in that existing code should continue to work – but the facade is the right way to do things. \u00a0Behind the facade is a major rethink\/cleanup to the export architecture\/implementation, contributed by Alberto.<\/p>\n MOXy<\/strong><\/p>\n The key technology underlying docx4j – and a major differentiator from Apache POI – is JAXB.<\/p>\n There is a JAXB reference implementation; the JAXB baked into Java 6 and 7 is based on it.<\/p>\n Prior to v3, you had to use the reference implementation, or the implementation included in the JDK.<\/p>\n With v3, you can choose to use EclipseLink MOXy<\/a> instead. \u00a0To do so, simply include docx4j-MOXy-JAXBContext-3.0.0.jar<\/a> and the MOXy jars on your classpath.<\/p>\n
