[ANN] Apache Commons Compress 1.9 Released
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 The Apache Commons Team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Commons Compress 1.9. Version 1.9 adds support for raw DEFLATE streams without GZIP framing. In addition it fixes bugs in the 7z and tar packages and may improve checking for the presence of the XZ for Java library. The Apache Commons Compress Library defines a Java API for working with ar, cpio, tar, zip, 7z, arj, dump, gzip, pack200, bzip2, lzma, snappy, Z, xz and deflate files. Source and binary distributions are available for download from the Apache Commons download site: http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-compress/download_compress.cgi When downloading, please verify signatures using the KEYS file available at the above location when downloading the release. Changes in this version include: New features: o Added support for DEFLATE streams without any gzip framing. Issue: COMPRESS-263. Thanks to Matthias Stevens. Fixed Bugs: o When reading 7z files unknown file properties and properties of type kDummy are now ignored. Issue: COMPRESS-287. o Expanding 7z archives using LZMA compression could cause an EOFException. Issue: COMPRESS-286. o Long-Name and -link or PAX-header entries in TAR archives always had the current time as last modfication time, creating archives that are different at the byte level each time an archive was built. Issue: COMPRESS-289. Thanks to Bob Robertson. Changes: o Checking for XZ for Java may be expensive. The result will now be cached outside of an OSGi environment. You can use the new XZUtils#setCacheXZAvailability to overrride this default behavior. Issue: COMPRESS-285.
