[jmsl] UserBeans for Track?

[jmsl at music.columbia.edu]

Hi Peter
I've added userbeans to Track.
You (and anyone else interested) can grab a prerelease at 
http://www.algomusic.com/prerelease/
A summary of changes since the last official release is listed below (I 
see you've all over these recent changes!)
Thanks
Nick

06/14/08    ScoreEditPanel now offers x, bb, 1/4#, 1/4b menu items. 
Also, entering C or F with b selected spells pitch enharmonically now.
            Entering E or B with # selected spells pitch enharmonically 
now.  Changes were made in NoteFactory.  Thanks Peter McCullough
06/22/08    The following Score fields and their getters and setters, 
were changed from static to local. Thanks Peter McCullough
              showInstrumentNames
            showTempo
            showStaffNumbers
            showMeasureNumbers
            showSectionBrackets
            showTimeSignatures
            showClefs           
06/29/08    Removed static Staff.set/getActiveTrackindex(). When using 
GUI like ScoreFrame, active track is determined by EditManager
            by get()ting its value from ScoreEditPanel. When you are 
using API, use score.set/getActiveTrackNumber(), like in 
jmsltestsuite.TwoTracksPerStaff
            for example.  This way multiple score editors can maintain 
their own active track instead of setting one global static Staff field.
            Note that ScoreCanvasAdapter no longer reacts to 
EditStateChanged (it used to set Staff.activetrackindex). For Peter 
McCullough; glad
            to clean this up. Note that selecting the track in 
ScoreEditPanel does NOT change the score's active track index! It simply 
provides the
            track index for operations managed by EditManager (ie UI 
interactions)
           
07/12/08    BUG FIX: If a Note's UserBean cannot be instantiated when 
Score is loaded (for example if the userbean class is not in the 
classpath),
            noteXMLLoader mistakenly added NULL to Note's user beans, 
which resulted in not being able to save score any more (null pointer 
exception killed the save).
            Note NoteXMLLoader does not add NULL to user beans, which is 
correct behavior.
            IMPORTANT: saving this score will result in a score stripped 
of the references to thge original user beans so be careful.
            Scenario: user creates UserBeanX on one machine, creates a 
score with it and saves the score. This score contains references
            to UserBeanX class. Now load the score on a different 
machine without UserBeanX on it, and none of these beans will load.
            Save the score on this machine and there will be no 
references to UserBeanX any more.
07/12/08    Feature: new NoteOrnament abstract class. Define your own 
drawing ornament for a note. Add it to a note with addUserBean.
            Saves and loads back with the score. NoteOrnaments are 
scanned and loaded as plug-ins. Show up in Note menu of ScoreFrame.
            Wrapped in notePropertiesTransform so they are un/redoable.
            See jmsltestsuite.NoteOrnamentTest and 
jmsltestsuite.DrippyNoteOrnament and jmsltestsuite.SquigglyNoteOrnament
            To test plug-ins, compile Drippy and Squiggly and copy their 
.class files to a "jmsltestsuite" subdirectory of jmsl_plugins
           
09/06/08    Score.setScorePainter() is now a public method (for Peter 
McCullough). Warning this will probably disappear soon.
09/27/08    Track has user beans now, thanks Peter McCullough
