  • The XMLBuilder class simplifies the creation and manipulation of XML files within Java applications.

    • Supports programmatically building XML structures.
    • Handles complex XML hierarchies with ease.
    • Includes validation and error handling to ensure well-formed XML files.
    • Ideal for generating language files dynamically or other XML-based configurations.
  • Performance Optimizations:

    • Improved the speed of language loading and dynamic switching.
    • Reduced memory usage when handling large translation files.
  • Bug Fixes:

    • Fixed an issue with dynamic placeholders not rendering correctly in certain contexts.
    • Fixed edge cases where Swing components failed to update after a language switch.
  • Improved XML Parsing:

    • Enhanced support for complex language files with nested placeholders.
    • Better error handling for malformed XML files.
  • Documentation Updates:

    • Expanded usage examples for XmlBuilder.
    • Clarified integration steps for applications without graphical interfaces.

What's Changed
