Downloading sources corresponding to a specific release #9
Description
Hello!
Congratulations for the nice API-rewriting of the OpenCSV project! Your API is
indeed more usable!
In case that you are still active in this project, I have two small suggestions.
Many times when developing applications with lots of libraries, there is a need
to have access to the source code corresponding to a specific release. For
example if I include in my app the googlecode-opencsv-2.4.jar, then I need also
to save somewhere the googlecode-opencsv-2.4-sources.jar
(so if in the next years more versions are released, like 2.5 and 2.6, but I
cannot or will not upgrade the version 2.4 that I am using, then other new
developers will be able to see the source code for the specific version 2.4,
not the latest sources that are currently in the googlecode Source hg)
So my two small suggestions are:
1) Please also include in the Downloads section a jar with the sources for 2.4
(opencsv-2.4-sources.jar)
2) In case you don't want to keep all these versions available for download,
then please create a RELEASE TAG in the mercurial repository for the commit of
the 2.4 release, to be able to refer to it when downloading the sources.
