Details of all changes by API and date

ETable and Outline APIs

A protected checkAt() method added to Outline

Feb 1 '13; API spec. version: 1.25; affected top-level classes: Outline; made by: mentlicher; issues: #223021

Outline has a checkAt() method to perform a selection/deselection of a check box on the given row and column.

RowMapping is enhanced to cache the transformed value.

Jan 2 '12; API spec. version: 1.19; affected top-level classes: ETable; made by: mentlicher; issues: #205828
In order to make the row sorting faster and more robust, RowMapping class is enhanced to cache the transformed value from the requested column. A new constructor with ETable argument and method getTransformedValue(int) are added. It prevents from altering of the values during the sorting process.
