+RELEASE NOTES
+
+
+Introduction
+
+The Apache Commons BCEL team is pleased to announce the release of
+Apache Commons BCEL 6.1!
+
+The Byte Code Engineering Library (BCEL) is intended to give users a convenient
+way to analyze, create, and manipulate compiled .class files. Classes are
+represented by objects containing all the symbolic information of the given
+class: methods, fields and byte code instructions.
+
+Apache Commons BCEL 6.1 is a bugfix and feature release supporting bringing
+experimental support for Java 9.
+
+It requires Java 7 or higher to run.
+
+
+COMPATIBILITY with 6.1
+----------------------
+
+Binary compatible - Yes
+
+Source compatible - Yes, sort of;
+ - The org.apache.bcel.classfile.Visitor interface has been enhanced with
+ additional methods. If you implemented it directly instead of extending
+ the EmptyVisitor class you'll have to implement the new methods.
+ - The org.apache.bcel.generic.Visitor interface has been enhanced with an
+ additional method. If you implemented it directly instead of extending
+ the EmptyVisitor class you'll have to implement the new methods.
+
+Semantic compatible - Yes
+
+For full information about API changes please see the extended Clirr report:
+
+
+https://commons.apache.org/bcel/clirr-report.html
+
+
+COMPATIBILITY with Java 9
+-------------------------
+
+The MANIFEST.MF now contains an additional entry:
+
+ Automatic-Module-Name: org.apache.bcel
+
+This should make it possible to use Commons BCEL 6.1 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/BCEL-293
+
+The build currently on Java 9 fails with test failures related to Locales. We
+are still working on this. For more information see:
+
+https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BCEL-275
+
+
+New Features
+-------------
+
+* BCEL-293: Add Automatic-Module-Name MANIFEST entry for Java 9 compatibility.
+* BCEL-292: Add minimal Java 9 support.
+
+Fixed Bugs
+-----------
+
+* BCEL-286: Utility.signatureToString fails if a method has multiple type
+ arguments. Thanks to Mark Roberts.
+* BCEL-287: IINC does not handle -128 properly. Thanks to Mark Roberts.
+* BCEL-283: Support for StackMap should be different from StackMapTable.
+ Thanks to Mark Roberts.
+* BCEL-289: Crash when parsing constructor of inner classes with parameters
+ annotated.
+* BCEL-276: LocalVariableTypeTable is not updated.
+ Thanks to Sam Yoon, Mark Roberts.
+* BCEL-277: Resolving the String representation of a constant throws
+ NoSuchElementException in case of CONSTANT_NameAndType constant.
+ Thanks to Sam Yoon.

+Release Notes for 6.0
+
+
+Introduction
+------------
+The Apache Commons BCEL team is pleased to announce the release of
+Apache Commons BCEL 6.0!
+
+The Byte Code Engineering Library (BCEL) is intended to give users a convenient
+way to analyze, create, and manipulate compiled .class files. Classes are
+represented by objects containing all the symbolic information of the given
+class: methods, fields and byte code instructions.
+
+Apache Commons BCEL 6.0 is a major release supporting the new features
+introduced in Java 6, 7 and 8.
+
+It requires Java 7 or higher to run.
+
+
+COMPATIBILITY with 5.2
+----------------------
+
+Binary compatible - not strictly compatible
+- The constant interface org.apache.bcel.Constants has been deprecated. Classes
+ which implemented this interface in 5.2 now use the constants defined in the
+ org.apache.bcel.Const class.
+- The constant interface org.apache.bcel.generic.InstructionConstants has been
+ deprecated. Classes which implemented this interface in 5.2 now use the
+ constants defined in the org.apache.bcel.generic.InstructionConsts class.
+- Return type of method 'public java.lang.Object getElementAt(int)' in
+ org.apache.bcel.verifier.VerifierFactoryListModel has been changed to
+ java.lang.String.
+- The BCEL classes do no longer implement java.io.Serializable.
+
+Source compatible - Yes, sort of;
+ - The org.apache.bcel.classfile.Visitor interface has been enhanced with
+ additional methods. If you implemented it directly instead of extending
+ the EmptyVisitor class you'll have to implement the new methods.
+ - The org.apache.bcel.generic.Visitor interface has been enhanced with an
+ additional method. If you implemented it directly instead of extending
+ the EmptyVisitor class you'll have to implement the new methods.
+
+Semantic compatible - Yes, except:
+ - BCEL 6.0 handles new attributes such as code annotations that could only
+ be processed by implementing a custom AttributeReader in the previous
+ versions. Code relying on this behavior will have to be adjusted since
+ the AttributeReader will no longer be called in these cases.
+
+For full information about API changes please see the extended Clirr report:
+
+
+https://commons.apache.org/bcel/clirr-report.html
+
+New Features
+-------------
+
