#### Commons
- | The Castor Commons JAR http://dist.codehaus.org/castor/1.3.2/castor-1.3.2-commons.jar As of release 0.9.9.1, a new JAR file with the suffix '-commons' has been introduced, holding classes that can be used independently of Castor XML and Castor JDO. With the 0.9.9.1 release it only contains the Base64Decoder, Base64Encoder, IdentityMap and IdentitySet classes. More (e.g. Castor's cache) will follow with future releases. Since these classes are also required for Castor XML and/or Castor JDO, they are included in the other JARs (XML, JDO) that require them. Therefore, you don't need to change your class path if it includes one of the other Castor JARs (XML, JDO). The only intention of the commons package is to provide you with a small JAR containing classes that are commonly needed by applications even if they do not need Castor's XML and/or JDO part.
The tarball and zips include all the JARs required by Castor, the docs, and the API JavaDocs. To fully install Castor, simply extract all the JARs into your classpath. The SVN snapshot includes additional JARs required to build Castor. It is self-sufficient and does not require any external components other than javac. The documentation set includes JavaDocs for the full source code, documenting class usage. A small documentation set without the full source JavaDocs is available in the tarball and zips. All of the JARs included with Castor (used for building Castor) are available for distribution free of charge, subject to the respective license agreements. All implementation JARs (i.e. not APIs) are available under an open source license and available from our FTP server. Open source licenses in use include Apache (ASF), Exolab, Mozilla (MPL), and public domain. All licenses are fully compatible with each other. The example JAR includes fully functional samples that demonstrate the use of various features of Castor -- including marshaling and unmarshaling to and from XML, data persistence using JDO, and source code generation from an XML Schema instance. The example web application (in form of a WAR archive) includes fully functional samples that demonstrate the use of Castor from within a standard J2EE web application. The WAR file can be deployed to any J2EE compliant web application container (including, amongst others, Tomcat, WebSphere, JBoss, and Weblogic) using the standard deployment method of your web application server. ### Latest Milestone Release

#### Castor XML Spring factory beans
- | Spring factory beans for Castor XML http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/org/codehaus/castor/spring-xml/1.0-SNAPSHOT/
The JARs in this directory carry a timestamp in their name. Please make sure that you always use the latest JAR file, unless you require a specific version. For those of you working with Maven 2, please add the following dependency to your POM to include the Spring factory beans for Castor XML with your project:
    <dependency>
       <groupId>org.codehaus.castor</groupId>
       <artifactId>spring-xml</artifactId>
       <version>0.8-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </dependency>
As we currently provide snapshot releases only for the factory beans, you will have to add the following `<repository>` element to your POM as well, so that Maven 2 knows about the Codehaus Snapshot repository when trying to resolve and download dependencies.
    <repository>
        <id>codehaus-snapshots</id>
        <name>Maven Codehaus Snapshots</name>
        <url>http://snapshots.maven.codehaus.org/maven2/</url>
    </repository>
#### Spring ORM for Castor JDO
- | Spring ORM implementation for Castor JDO http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/org/codehaus/castor/spring-orm/2.1-SNAPSHOT/
The JARs in this directory carry a timestamp in their name. Please make sure that you always use the latest JAR file, unless you require a specific version. For those of you working with Maven 2, please add the following dependency to your POM to include the Spring ORM package for Castor JDO with your project:
    <dependency>
       <groupId>org.codehaus.castor</groupId>
       <artifactId>spring-orm</artifactId>
       <version>RC2-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </dependency>
As we currently provide snapshot releases only for the factory beans, you will have to add the following `<repository>` element to your POM as well, so that Maven 2 knows about the Codehaus Snapshot repository when trying to resolve and download dependencies.
    <repository>
        <id>codehaus-snapshots</id>
        <name>Maven Codehaus Snapshots</name>
        <url>http://snapshots.maven.codehaus.org/maven2/</url>
