<description>
<p>
New <code>Result2</code> and new <code>BinaryForSourceQueryImplementation2</code>
that allows one to specify that binaries should be used instead
of compiling the sources (if the binaries are already compiled and
newer).

<description>
<p>
Added a policy for handling in archive paths while converting the <code>ClassPath</code> to <code>String</code>.
The <code>ClassPath.toString</code> takes a <code>PathEmbeddingMode</code> parameter determining how the in archive
path is handled. It can be included into stringified root, omitted from it, or handled as an invalid classpath root.

Added a SPI interface to allow different implementations of the <code>GlobalPathRegistry</code>.
The <code>GlobalPathRegistry</code> uses the first instance od the <code>GlobalPathRegistryImplementation</code>

<p>
Added a constant representing an empty ClassPath like java.util.Collections.EMPTY_LIST.
This ClassPath has no entries and never fires any events.

<summary>Splitting the java API to independent ClassPath API and the rest of the java API</summary>
<version major="1" minor="18"/>
<date day="5" month="6" year="2008"/>
<author login="tzezula"/>
<compatibility addition="no" modification="no" semantic="compatible" source="incompatible" binary="compatible"/>
<description>
<p>
The copy of the ClassPath API was used by generic scripting framework, which cannot depend on the java cluster.
To remove this copy of the ClassPath API the java API needs to be splitted into the ClassPath API (IDE cluster)
and the rest of the java API (java cluster).

<description>
<p>
<code>ClassPath.toString(PathConversionMode)</code> and
<code>ClassPathSupport.createClassPath(String)</code>
can be used to easily convert between traditional string classpaths
and NetBeans' internal representation.

<summary>Support for passing hint to the java infrastructure whether it should prefer source or binary</summary>

<description>
<p>
It is possible for the SouceForBinaryQuery provider to specify whether the java module should prefer
sources or binaries. In general sources should be preferred for projects where user can make modification.
The binaries should be preferred for libraries and platforms where sources may not be complete or correct.

It is possible for clients of existing <code>ClassPath</code> methods to have made
assumptions about their behavior that are no longer true.
</p>

<description>
<p>
Classpath implementations can now specify which files and folders/packages to include
or exclude. (This could be used for binary classpaths such as <code>COMPILE</code> but
currently only excludes on <code>SOURCE</code> paths are honored by Java language features.)

<description>
<p>
The new API BinaryForSourceQuery was added to allow clients to find out the output (class files)
corresponding to source root. The query uses instances of a SPI interface BinaryForSourceQueryImplementation
registered in the system lookup to find out the binaries. When no binary is found it uses the default algorithm
(SFBQ.findSources(ClassPath.EXECUTE) == sourceRoot)

<compatibility binary="compatible" source="compatible" semantic="incompatible" deprecation="yes" addition="yes" modification="yes">
<p>
Code which just called <code>ClassPath.getClassPath</code>
and so on as API clients should still be safe, <em>but</em>
passing null as a reference file no longer works.
</p>
</compatibility>
<description>
<p>
<code>ClassPath</code> is now final, not abstract. (Not
incompatible, since the constructor was never public.) Same
for <code>ClassPath.Entry</code>.
</p>
<p>
<code>getClassPath</code> now looks for
<code>ClassPathProvider</code>s rather than delegating to the
filesystems mounted in <code>Repository</code>.
</p>
<p>
The classpath type <code>DEBUG</code> was deprecated.
<code>SOURCE</code> and <code>BOOT</code> were added.
</p>
<p>
<code>ClassPath.Entry.getURL()</code> was added.
</p>
<p>
There is a complete SPI for creating <code>ClassPath</code>
instances.

Note that <code>GlobalPathRegistry</code> serves some of the
same functions as <code>Repository.default</code> used to,
but client code should be reviewed carefully for usage.

<description>
Added a new class <code>GlobalPathRegistry</code> to represent
classpaths of current interest, typically from open projects.

<description>
ClassPath.getClassPath() documentation omitted the fact, that the method may
return <code>null</code>. Although the implementation functioned that way
from the beginning, it is considered an incompatible change (tightening of
the contract).
