A while ago we discussed the possibility of a new release of
commons-configuration. Now back from my vacations I could spend some
time on this task.
Following is a Todo list with things I would like to get done before a
release. So this can be considered as a simple release plan. Feel free
to comment or add further points.
- Bugzilla:
There are three tickets in the "need info" state, which can be closed
because of lack of feedback. For 35858 we can decide whether the
subset() implementation of HierarchicalConfiguration can be dropped. For
other tickets I feel no urgent need to address any before the release.
- Ensure binary compatibility
A Clirr or JDiff report should be created as mentioned in the "Releasing
Components" section.
- Documentation
Some improvements of our user guide won't be wrong.
- Code quality
Address errors and warnings displayed by Checkstyle, Javadoc, and other
reports. Maybe try to further increase test coverage.
Apropos: What's the state of the new plist package? Test coverage is
quite low (maybe because a failing unit test was disabled), and the
Eclipse compiler outputs several warnings (e.g. about unused variables).
Is it yet mature?
Any other points?
Oliver
