Apache Commons Lang
Version 3.6
Release Notes
INTRODUCTION:
This document contains the release notes for the 3.6 version of
Apache Commons Lang as well as a history all changes in the Commons Lang 3.x
release line. Commons Lang is a set of utility functions and reusable
components that should be of use in any Java environment. Commons Lang 3.6 at
least requires Java 7.0. Note that this has changed from Commons Lang 3.5, which
only required Java 1.6.
For the advice on upgrading from 2.x to 3.x, see the following page:
http://commons.apache.org/lang/article3_0.html
HIGHLIGHTS
==========
Some of the highlights in this release include:
o The class org.apache.commons.lang3.concurrent.Memoizer is an implementation
of the Memoizer pattern as shown in
Goetz, Brian et al. (2006) - Java Concurrency in Practice, p. 108.
o The class org.apache.commons.lang3.ArchUtils has been added. ArchUtils is
a utility class for the "os.arch" system property.
DEPRECATIONS
============
The Apache Commons Community has recently set up the Commons Text component
as a home for algorithms working on strings. For this reason most of the string
focused functionality in Commons Lang has been deprecated and moved to
Commons Text. This includes:
o All classes in the org.apache.commons.lang3.text and the
org.apache.commons.lang3.text.translate packages
o org.apache.commons.lang3.StringEscapeUtils
o org.apache.commons.lang3.RandomStringUtils
o The methods org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils.getJaroWinklerDistance and
org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils.getLevenshteinDistance
For more information see the Commons Text website:
http://commons.apache.org/text
The class org.apache.commons.lang3.CharEncoding has been deprecated in favor of
java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets.
The following methods have been deprecated in
org.apache.commons.lang3.ArrayUtils in favor of the corresponding insert
methods. Note that the handling for null inputs differs between add and insert.
o add(boolean[], int, boolean) -> insert(int, boolean[], boolean...)
o add(byte[], int, boolean) -> insert(int, byte[], byte...)
o add(char[], int, boolean) -> insert(int, char[], char...)
o add(double[], int, boolean) -> insert(int, double[], double...)
o add(float[], int, boolean) -> insert(int, float[], float...)
o add(int[], int, boolean) -> insert(int, int[], int...)
o add(long[], int, boolean) -> insert(int, long[], long...)
o add(short[], int, boolean) -> insert(int, short[], short...)
o add(T[], int, boolean) -> insert(int, T[], T...)
COMPATIBILITY WITH JAVA 9
==================
The MANIFEST.MF now contains an additional entry:
Automatic-Module-Name: org.apache.commons.lang3
This should make it possible to use Commons Lang 3.6 as a module in the Java 9
module system. For more information see the corresponding issue and the
referenced mailing list discussions:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1338
The build problems present in the 3.5 release have been resolved. Building
Commons Lang 3.6 should work out of the box with the latest Java 9 EA build.
Please report any Java 9 related issues at:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG

Release Notes for version 3.5
HIGHLIGHTS
==========
Some of the highlights in this release include:
o Added Java 9 detection to org.apache.commons.lang3.SystemUtils.
o Support for shifting and swapping elements in
org.apache.commons.lang3.ArrayUtils.
o New methods for generating random strings from different character classes
including alphabetic, alpha-numeric and ASCII added to
org.apache.commons.lang3.RandomStringUtils.
o Numerous extensions to org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils including
null safe compare variants, more remove and replace variants, rotation and
truncation.
o Added org.apache.commons.lang3.ThreadUtils - a utility class to work with
instances of java.lang.Thread and java.lang.ThreadGroup.
o Added annotations @EqualsExclude, @HashCodeExclude and @ToStringEclude to
mark fields which should be ignored by the reflective builders in the
org.apache.commons.lang3.builder package.
o Support for various modify and retrieve value use cases added to the classes
in org.apache.commons.lang3.mutable.
COMPATIBILITY
=============
Apache Commons Lang 3.5 is binary compatible with the 3.4 release. Users
should not experience any problems when upgrading from 3.4 to 3.5.
There has been an addition to the org.apache.commons.lang3.time.DatePrinter
interface:
o Added method 'public boolean parse(java.lang.String, java.text.ParsePosition,
java.util.Calendar)'
o Added method 'public java.lang.Appendable format(long, java.lang.Appendable)'
o Added method 'public java.lang.Appendable format(java.util.Date,
java.lang.Appendable)'
o Added method 'public java.lang.Appendable format(java.util.Calendar,
java.lang.Appendable)'
For this reason 3.5 is not strictly source compatible to 3.4. Since the
DatePrinter interface is not meant to be implemented by clients, this
change it not considered to cause any problems.
JAVA 9 SUPPORT
==============
Java 9 introduces a new version-string scheme. Details of this new scheme are
documented in JEP-223 (http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/223). In order to support
JEP-223 two classes had to be changed:
o org.apache.commons.lang3.JavaVersion
deprecated enum constant JAVA_1_9
introduced enum constant JAVA_9
o org.apache.commons.lang3.SystemUtils
deprecated constant IS_JAVA_1_9
introduced constant IS_JAVA_9
For more information see LANG-1197
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1197). All other APIs are expected
to work with Java 9.
BUILDING ON JAVA 9
==================
Java 8 introduced the Unicode Consortium's Common Locale Data Repository as
alternative source for locale data. Java 9 will use the CLDR provider as
default provider for locale data (see http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/252). This
causes an number of locale-sensitive test in Commons Lang to fail. In order
to build Commons Lang 3.5 on Java 9, the locale provider has to be set to
'JRE':
mvn -Djava.locale.providers=JRE clean install
We are currently investigating ways to support building on Java 9 without
further configuration. For more information see:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1265

Release Notes for version 3.4
COMPATIBILITY
=============
Commons Lang 3.4 is fully binary compatible to the last release and can
therefore be used as a drop in replacement for 3.3.2. Note that the value of
org.apache.commons.lang3.time.DurationFormatUtils.ISO_EXTENDED_FORMAT_PATTERN
has changed, which may affect clients using the constant. Furthermore the
constant is used internally in
o DurationFormatUtils.formatDurationISO(long)
o DurationFormatUtils.formatPeriodISO(long, long)
For more information see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1000.

=============================================================================
Release Notes for version 3.2
COMPATIBILITY WITH 3.1
========================
This release introduces backwards incompatible changes in
org.apache.commons.lang3.time.FastDateFormat:
o Method 'protected java.util.List parsePattern()' has been removed
o Method 'protected java.lang.String parseToken(java.lang.String, int[])' has
been removed
o Method 'protected org.apache.commons.lang3.time.FastDateFormat$NumberRule
selectNumberRule(int, int)' has been removed
These changes were the result of [LANG-462]. It is assumed that this change
will not break clients as Charles Honton pointed out on 25/Jan/12:
"
1. Methods "FastDateFormat$NumberRule selectNumberRule(int, int)" and
"List<Rule> parsePattern()" couldn't have been overridden because
NumberRule and Rule were private to FastDateFormat.
2. Due to the factory pattern used, it's unlikely other two methods would have
been overridden.
3. The four methods are highly implementation specific. I consider it a
mistake that the methods were exposed.
"
For more information see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-462.
