The update release IT Mill Toolkit 5.4.0 is available. In addition to a number of bug fixes, it introduces several long-awaited enhancements such as the following:
- BeanItemContainer wrapper over the regular Java Collection interface to allow binding such collections directly to UI components that accept a Container as the data source, such as the Table.
- Expand ratios for sizing Table columns, equivalent to expand rations in layouts.
- Table column resizing on window resize.
- Added several commonly needed validators and refactored the validation class hierarchy
- Input prompt that vanishes when the user starts entering text in TextField and ComboBox.
- Do not throw NPE for null itemId parameter in item setter methods in IndexedContainer
- handleUnparsableDateString() for handling problems in date strings in DateField
See the

A problem not mentioned in the Release Notes, the OOPHM package was broken in IT Mill Toolkit 5.3.1 and did not include (
#2940
) the browser plugin files (not a problem if you installed them from another package) and there was a classpath problem (
#2939
) in the QuickStart project configuration.
