Copy +junit.jar to ANT_HOME/lib. You can get JUnit from https://www.junit.org. See the developer's guide +for more details. + + +DEPRECATIONS: + +- The enum package has been renamed to enums for JDK 1.5 compliance. +All functionality is identical, just the package has changed. +This package will be removed in v3.0. + +- NumberUtils.stringToInt - renamed to toInt + +- DateUtils - four constants, MILLIS_IN_* have been deprecated as they were defined +as int not long. The replacements are MILLIS_PER_*. + + +NEW FEATURES: + +New: +- Mutable package - contains basic classes that hold an Object or primitive +and provide both get and set methods. +- DurationFormatUtils - provides various methods for formatting durations +- CharEncoding - definitions of constants for character encoding work +- CharUtils - utilities for working with characters + +Updated: +- ArrayUtils - many more methods, especially List-like methods +- BooleanUtils - isTrue and isFalse methods that handle null +- ClassUtils - primitive to wrapper class conversion methods +- ClassUtils - class name comparator +- IllegalClassException - extra constructor for common instanceof case +- NotImplementedException - supports nested exceptions +- ObjectUtils - hashcode method handling null +- StringUtils - isAsciiPrintable to check the contents of a string + -- ordinalIndexOf to find the nth index of a string + -- various remove methods to remove parts of a string + -- various split methods to provide more control over splitting a string + -- defaultIfEmpty to default a string if null or empty +- SystemUtils - methods to get system properties as File objects + -- extra constants representing system properties +- Validate - new methods to check whether all elements in a collection are of a specific type +- WordUtils - new methods to capitalize based on a set of specified delimiters + +- EqualsBuilder - now provides setter to internal state +- ToStringStyle - new style, short prefix style +- ReflectionToStringBuilder - more flags to control the output with regards to statics + +- ExceptionUtils - added indexOfType methods that check subclasses, thus leaving the existing +indexOfThrowable method untouched (see incompatible changes section) + +- NumberUtils - various string to number parsing methods added + +- DateUtils - methods added to compare dates in various ways + -- method to parse a date string using multiple patterns +- FastDateFormat - extra formatting methods that take in a millisecond long value + -- additional static factory methods +- StopWatch - new methods for split behavior + + +BUG FIXES: + +19331 General case: infinite loop: ToStringBuilder.reflectionToString +23174 EqualsBuilder.append(Object[], Object[]) throws NPE +23356 Make DurationFormatUtils public!
