Release v4.6.2

Changed

• Remove module-info.java from the corese-command module to avoid issues with Java 21 and later versions. This file is not needed for command-line applications and its removal simplifies the build process.
• Update JDK version to 21 in GitHub workflows.
• Update Corese-Core dependency to version 4.6.4.
• Update error messages for clarity and consistency.

Fixed

• Fixed bugs in installation scripts for Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Release v4.6.1

Added

• Improved Linux, MacOS and Windows installation scripts:
  • Pre-releases and drafts are now excluded from the available version list.
  • User input is now validated in interactive mode: if an invalid version number is entered, the prompt will repeat until a valid choice is made.
  • Updated java version to 21 in the installation scripts.

Changed

• Updated to require Java 21.
• Renamed query-remote command to query-endpoint for clarity and consistency with the query command.

Fixed

• Fixed bug where one-line inline SPARQL queries containing URIs (e.g. PREFIX ex: <http://example.org/> SELECT * WHERE { ex:Alice a ex:Person }) were incorrectly detected as file paths due to slashes or dots in the query string.
