Today we released second bugfix release for Windsor 2.5 and for Core 2.5 (incl. DynamicProxy, which is what probably is the most interesting to people). This time there are no new features, only fixes to issues identified since the last release (you can see the entire list in changes.txt). We have however updated to NLog 2, and since it works in Silverlight, this release also has Logging Facility for Silverlight. This is very likely the last release in 2.5 branch, and all development now moves to vNext.

One thing you may notice, is that while file number was bumped to 2.5.2, assembly version still shows 2.5.1. This was requested by several users who didn’t want to have to recompile all third party dependencies using Windsor 2.5.1 again, in order to use the new version.

If you’re in such situation, you may drop and replace older assemblies with the new ones, and in 99% of cases you should be just fine. However in order to fix some issues, there were few breaking changes, so if the other projects you’re using were depending on the changed code you will have to upgrade them to version compatible with Windsor 2.5.2 anyway.

New logo

One more noteworthy development in Castle land, as you may have noticed if you visited Castle Project website recently is that we have a new logo (or rather – set of logos) created by my very talented wife.

Now back to me – the downloads are here (Windsor and Core) and here (just Core) – enjoy. I am on a horse.
