The fix for NET-276 involved public API changes so is not appropriate for a minor release.
NNTPClient#retrieveArticleInfo(int,int) was changed to NNTPClient#retrieveArticleInfo(long, long) That can easily be fixed by adding the old method and deprecating it. There are also some changes to NewsgroupInfo: Return type of method 'public int getArticleCount()' has been changed to long Return type of method 'public int getFirstArticle()' has been changed to long Return type of method 'public int getLastArticle()' has been changed to long and ArticlePointer: Changed type of field articleNumber from int to long It's not so obvious how to fix the API change here. It also looks to me like the change is incomplete - there are still quite a few API methods in NNTPClient which still use an int rather than a long, and Article.articleNumber is an int. Seems to me that articleNumber should be long throughout; also ideally more use should be made of ArticlePointer (e.g. Article should use it). I think the int/long change needs to be resolved before any release is made. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
