@@ -2,6 +2,32 @@ XZ for Java release notes ========================= +1.9 (2021-03-12) + + * Add LZMAInputStream.enableRelaxedEndCondition(). It allows + decompression of LZMA streams whose uncompressed size is known + but it is unknown if the end of stream marker is present. This + method is meant to be useful in Apache Commons Compress to + support .7z files created by certain very old 7-Zip versions. + Such files have the end of stream marker in the LZMA data even + though the uncompressed size is known. 7-Zip supports such files + and thus other implementations of the .7z format should support + them too. + + * Make LZMA/LZMA2 decompression faster. With files that compress + extremely well the performance can be a lot better but with + more typical files the improvement is minor. + + * Make the CRC64 code faster. + + * Add module-info.java as multi-release JAR. The attribute + Automatic-Module-Name was removed. + + * The binaries for XZ for Java 1.9 in the Maven Central now + require Java 7. Building the package requires at least Java 9 + for module-info support but otherwise the code should still be + Java 5 compatible (see README and comments in build.properties). + 1.8 (2018-01-04) * Fix a binary compatibility regression: XZ for Java 1.7 binaries |
