OpenXava 7.7.2 released

This is a maintenance version with many bug fixes and some small improvements.

To update edit the pom.xml file in your project and change the value of the openxava.version property, in this way:

<properties>
    <openxava.version>7.7.2</openxava.version>
    ...
</properties>

Then rebuild your project with mvn clean package

Look at the migration instructions.
