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: + + https://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: + + https://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 + +NEW FEATURES +============ + +o LANG-1336: Add NUL Byte To CharUtils. Thanks to Beluga Behr. +o LANG-1304: Add method in StringUtils to determine if string contains both + mixed cased characters.

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 (https://openjdk.org/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 https://openjdk.org/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 + + +NEW FEATURES +============== + +o LANG-1275: Added a tryAcquire() method to TimedSemaphore. +o LANG-1255: Add DateUtils.toCalendar(Date, TimeZone).
