| Rat 0.12 |
| =================== |
| |
| * We now require Maven 3.0.5+ to build Rat, but as before we only require |
| Maven 2.2.1+ if you want to use Rat in your own Maven projects. |
| * We've integrated Rat into the ASF Jenkins to ensure continuous builds with various JDK versions. |
| * Issues resolved (see https://issues.apache.org/jira): |
| Bug |
| * [RAT-158] - Fix SAX-Parser warning by explicitly excluding xerces in Doxia 1.2. |
| (thanks to Hervé Boutemy) |
| * [RAT-173] - Allow complete skip of RAT plugin with rat.skip property |
| (thanks to Chris Burroughs) |
| * [RAT-174] - CDDL1License still very slow, replace Pattern matching with simple String comparison |
| (thanks to Chris Burroughs) |
| * [RAT-175] - SourceCodeManagementSystems.hasIgnoreFile() should return boolean |
| * [RAT-177] - final arrays should be private |
| * [RAT-188] - Fix problems with AnimalSniffer-plugin when running in GUMP with Java 8. |
| Workaround for https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANIMALSNIFFER-45 |
| (thanks to Mark Thomas) |
| * [RAT-160] - Ignore build.log that is created by maven-invoker-plugin runs. Temporary fix until invoker plugin improves |
| configurability of that file. |
| (thanks to Christopher Tubbs) |
| * [RAT-179] - Maven plugin and Ant task do not support adding extra approved licenses. |
| * [RAT-180] - Generify and beautify texts in RAT report. |
| |
| New features |
| * [RAT-171] - Maven plugin allows scanning of source code management ignore files. Their contents is added as exclusion to be ignored during RAT runs. |
| Supported source code management systems are: SVN, Git, Bazaar, Mercurial and CVS. |
| An ignore-file's contents is taken as it is without parsing or validating. |
| |
| Improvement |
| * [RAT-196] - Minor refactoring in pom.xml. |
| (thanks to Karl Heinz Marbaise) |
| * [RAT-194] - Upgrade to Doxia 1.6 if called directly, does not affect problems reported in RAT-158. Minor improvements. |

| Furthermore BinaryGuesser falls back to UTF-8 encoding in case the encoding given via system property (-Dfile.encoding) was not found. |
| * [RAT-202] - Report layout differs between successful RAT checks and existence of unapproved files. |
| * [RAT-203] - Using 'license' in README, source code, javadoc, comments and site instead of 'licence'; improve terminology to not confuse RAT consumers. |

| * [RAT-213] - Upgrade to commons-collections 3.2.2. |
| (thanks to Glenn Lewis) |
