Stephen Enhancements since 1.5 ---------------------- - Add static factory methods to Duration [1909376] Duration now has four factory methods, standardDays(), standardHours(), standardMinutes() and standardSeconds(). These create durations of the length normally associated with a day/hour/minute/second - Added Duration.getStandardSeconds() and Duration.toStandardSeconds() These convert a duration in milliseconds to a number of seconds. - Added OSGi bundle information [1889787] Joda-Time should be usable directly as an OSGi bundle - Added stable Chronology hash code implementations [2018795] The hash codes of each Chronology implementation is now stable. This should aid large scale caching/distribution tools. - Added DateTimeZone.isLocalDateTimeGap Returns true/false depending on whether the time is in a time-zone gap Compatibility with 1.5 ---------------------- Binary compatible - Yes Source compatible - Yes Serialization compatible - Yes Data compatible - Yes, except - DateTimeZone data updated to version 2008i Semantic compatible - Yes Deprecations since 1.5 ---------------------- Bug fixes since 1.5 ------------------- - ISODateTimeFormat millisecond parsing broken Millisecond parsing would parse 12:00:00.4 as 4 milliseconds rather than 400 milliseconds - ISODateTimeFormat basic field parsing too lenient The basic parsers in ISODateTimeFormat were too lenient They have been changed to only accept the correct number of digits as per the ISO-8601 standard. The non basic parsers are unaffected - DateTimeFormat.forFields(List) method can't handle immutable [1877843] Fix so that the method does not throw an exception when an unmodifiable list is passed in - Fixed offset time zones calculated incorrect periods ZonedChronology.ZonedDuration.isPrecise() did not take into account the decorated isPrecise() value. This meant that date fields for fixed offset time zones were always considered precise. The result was periods containing months and years when they should not have done. - ZonedChronology (regression from 1.4) [1887104] Fix to roundFloor/roundCeiling Bug affected DST cutover in Autumn for time fields (not date fields) - Clarify Javadoc time zone formats Time zone formats were incorrectly documented as 'Z' instead of 'ZZ' Javadoc only change - Period formatting [2025928] Formatting option printZeroRarelyFirst() did not work unless years field was included. - DateTimeZone (regression from 1.4) [fix also available in v1.5.2] Fix getOffsetFromLocal DST gap adjustment Bug affected parsing of DST cutover in Autumn - Parsing (regression from 1.4) [1839440] [fix also available in v1.5.1] Support parsing all upper-case and all lower-case text - Javadoc clarity enhancements [fix also available in v1.5.1] - Constants in Years/Months/Weeks/Days/Hours/Minutes/Seconds etc. - Period/Interval Object constructors ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Joda-interest mailing list Joda-interest@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/joda-interest
