I'm pleased to annnouce that my VectorCollection Flex library has been promoted to the Maven Central repository.

This replaces the version in my own repo http://repo.bealearts.co.uk/maven2/.

The new 1.1.0-Final version of the VectorCollection library can now be included in your dependencies with:

1. <dependencies>
2. <dependency>
3. <groupId>com.bealearts.collection</groupId>
4. <artifactId>vector-collection</artifactId>
5. <version>1.1.0-Final</version>
6. <type>swc</type>
7. </dependency>
8. </dependencies>

I have setup a Maven repository for BealeARTS open-source components to allow easy dependancy management for those using Maven to manage your projects.

The repo is located at http://repo.bealearts.co.uk/maven2/ and can be included in your POM using:

1. <repositories>
2. <repository>
3. <name>BealeARTS Maven Repository</name>
4. <id>bealearts</id>
5. <url>http://repo.bealearts.co.uk/maven2/</url>
6. </repository>
7. </repositories>

The 1.0.3-Final version of my VectorCollection library can then be included in your dependancies with:

1. <dependencies>
2. <dependency>
3. <groupId>com.bealearts.collection</groupId>
4. <artifactId>vector-collection</artifactId>
5. <version>1.0.3-Final</version>
6. <type>swc</type>
7. </dependency>
8. </dependencies>

I have added a Flex lib to RIAForge to allow one to use a Vector based collection of objects with Flex binding.

VectorCollection works in the same was as ArrayCollection, allowing one use it as the source for a dataProvider.
