21 July 2004 - Jakarta Commons Codec 1.3 Released
The Jakarta commons-codec team is pleased to announce the Codec 1.3 release!
http://commons.apache.org/codec/
The codec package contains simple encoder and decoders for various formats
such as Base64 and Hexadecimal. In addition to these widely used encoders and
decoders, the codec package also maintains a collection of phonetic encoding
utilities.
Changes in this version include:
New Features:
o BinaryCodec: Encodes and decodes binary to and from Strings of 0s and
1s. Issue: 27813. Thanks to Alex Karasulu.
o QuotedPrintableCodec: Codec for RFC 1521 MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail
Extensions) Part One. Rules #3, #4, and #5 of the quoted-printable spec
are not implemented yet. See also issue 27789. Issue: 26617. Thanks to Oleg
Kalnichevski.
o BCodec: Identical to the Base64 encoding defined by RFC 1521 and allows
a character set to be specified. Issue: 26617. Thanks to Oleg Kalnichevski.
o QCodec: Similar to the Quoted-Printable content-transfer-encoding defined
in RFC 1521 and designed to allow text containing mostly ASCII characters
to be decipherable on an ASCII terminal without decoding. Issue: 26617.
Thanks to Oleg Kalnichevski.
o Soundex: Implemented the DIFFERENCE algorithm. Issue: 25243. Thanks to
Matthew Inger.
o RefinedSoundex: Implemented the DIFFERENCE algorithm. Issue: 25243. Thanks
to Matthew Inger.
Fixed bugs:
o The default URL encoding logic was broken. Issue: 25995. Thanks to Oleg
Kalnichevski.
o Base64 chunked encoding not compliant with RFC 2045 section 2.1 CRLF.
Issue: 27781. Thanks to Gary D. Gregory.
o Hex converts illegal characters to 255. Issue: 28455.
o Metaphone now correctly handles a silent B in a word that ends in MB.
"COMB" is encoded as "KM", before this fix "COMB" was encoded as "KMB".
Issue: 28457.
o Added missing tags in Javadoc comments.
o General Javadoc improvements.
Changes:
o This version is relesed under the Apache License 2.0 , please see
LICENSE.txt. Previous versions were released under the Apache License
1.1.
o The Board recommendation to remove Javadoc author tags has been
implemented. All author tags are now "Apache Software Foundation".
Have fun!
