Major items on the release:
- A memory leak was fixed in the January 2005 version of the Configuration Application Block that affected all of the application blocks. This fix was made available in Patch 1475 and is included in the June 2005 release. (hence, all patches and minor bug fixes are incorporated--- no need to install separately)
- The Configuration Application Block was modified to improve performance when reading configuration information. Because each application block uses the Configuration Application Block to obtain configuration information, any application that uses an Enterprise Library application block will benefit from these performance improvements when moved to the June 2005 release.
- Registry Storage Provider. Allows you to read and write data to the registry.
One of my first inquiries will be whether or not the alternate configuration file location hack has been incorporated.
