45------------------
46[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/61?closed=1)
47* BETA: we're still doing work to integrate parts of [Java Symbol Solver](https://github.com/javaparser/javasymbolsolver) to simplify its API.
48* `VisitorMap` is joined by `VisitorSet` and `VisitorList`,
49for when you want to store `Node`s in collection but don't want its default equals/hascode behaviour

54* BETA: we're doing work to integrate parts of [Java Symbol Solver](https://github.com/javaparser/javasymbolsolver) to simplify its API.
55* JDK 9 will compile JavaParser now.
56* [An official sample Maven setup](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser-maven-sample) was added.
57
Danny van Bruggendf3995f2017-09-24 21:40:17 +020058Version 3.4.1
59------------------
60[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/59?closed=1)
61* Two visitors were added: `NoCommentEqualsVisitor` and `NoCommentHashCodeVisitor` -
62as the name implies you can use these to compare nodes without considering comments.
63Thanks Ryan Beckett!
64* `isSomeType()` methods have been added for many types that help avoid `instanceof`.
65* `asSomeType()` methods have been added for many types that help avoid casting to that type.
66* `ifSomeType()` methods have been added for many types, giving a nice functional way of doing if-is-type-then-cast-to-type-then-use.
67* The `LexicalPreservingPrinter` had its API changed a little: setup and printing are now separate things,
68so you don't have to drag an instance of `LexicalPreservingPrinter` through your code anymore.
69* `traverseScope` was added to all nodes with a scope, so you can travel through the scope without tripping over (non-)optionality.

Danny van Bruggen0ea4d492017-09-17 19:56:00 +020072Version 3.4.0
73------------------
74[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/58?closed=1)
75* BREAKING: We missed a Java 9 feature which is now on board: try with resources can now refer to a resource declared outside of the statement.
76This means that the node type you get for those resources is now `Expression` instead of `VariableDeclarationExpr`.
77For Java 8 and below you can simply cast it to `VariableDeclarationExpr` again.
78See also the Javadoc for `TryStmt`.
79* You can now inspect the AST by exporting it to XML, JSON, YAML, or a Graphviz's dot diagram, thanks to Ryan Beckett!
80* `GenericVisitorWithDefaults` and `VoidVisitorWithDefaults` were added which function like empty visitors,
81but all the visit methods call a default method by default.
82* Annotation support was cleaned up, adding some obscure locations where you can have annotations.
83* `EnumDeclaration` regained its constructor builder methods. They were accidentally lost around 3.2.2.
Danny van Bruggen06ccb382017-09-17 20:18:26 +020084* `ArrayType` now has an `origin` field which indicates in which position the array brackets were found.

93* `SourceZip` has been added.
94Use it to read source code from jars or zip files.
95Thank you @ryan-beckett !
96* JavaCC was upgraded to 7.0.2
97* A new option for the pretty printer was added.
98You can now wrap-and-column-align parameters of method calls.
99Thank you @tarilabs !

103[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/55?closed=1)
104* Parsing a partial java file (like an expression or statement) no longer ignores trailing code.
105* New memory saving option: turn off token list.

113------------------
114[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/53?closed=1)
115* The token list is now mutable - see methods on `JavaToken`.
116This caused mild breakage - some fields have become `Optional`.
117
Danny van Bruggen3cd1be02017-07-26 19:31:35 +0200118Version 3.3.0
119------------------
120[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/52?closed=1)
121* Breaking: `TryStmt::tryBlock` and `EnclosedExpr::inner` were optional for no good reason. Now they are required.
122* You can now ask a `JavaToken` for its category, which is useful for examining the token list or doing syntax highlighting or so.
123* `enum` and `strictfp` can now be used as identifiers on lower Java versions.

144------------------
145[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/48?closed=1)
146* Added `isInnerClass()` that checks if a `ClassOrInterfaceDeclaration` is an inner class (note: this is different from a nested class!)
147* @ryan-beckett contributed a huge [Eclipse setup guide](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/wiki/Eclipse-Project-Setup-Guide)

153
Danny van Bruggen9250ffa2017-06-04 20:50:37 +0200154Version 3.2.6
155------------------
156[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/46?closed=1)
157* `EmptyMemberDeclaration` is gone!
158It was deprecated for a while because it it was in the AST, but doesn't have any meaning in a Java program.
159`EmptyStmt` was also deprecated, but that has been reverted.
160This node *does* have meaning.
161
Danny van Bruggenee5691c2017-05-22 19:47:13 +0200162Version 3.2.5
163------------------
164[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/45?closed=1)
165* `NodeWithCondition` was added on all nodes containing a condition.
166* Lots of work on improving lexical preservation.
167* If a file was parsed from a file system, you can now get path information etc. from `CompilationUnit`
168* API BREAKING: every node now points to its start and end token.
169Some of the API has started returning `TokenRange` instead of `Range` - you can call `toRange` to get the old object type.
170We may still change the naming of some of this code in the following month.
171
Danny van Bruggen5201adc2017-05-14 14:00:56 +0200172Version 3.2.4
173------------------
174New style changelog, no more issue numbers, but a link:
175[issues resolved](https://github.com/javaparser/javaparser/milestone/44?closed=1)
176and any notable changes:
177* the new method `Node.removeForced()` by removing it, or removing the first parent that is optional.
178This is different from `Node.remove()`, `remove()` only tries to remove the node from the parent and fails if it can't.
179* `FieldAccessExpr.scope` is now a required property.
180You might find some `get()`s in your code that are no longer necessary.
181* `ReferenceType` no longer has a type parameter, so every `ReferenceType<?>` can be replaced by `ReferenceType` now.

Danny van Bruggen64dd2802017-03-19 13:52:35 +0100217Version 3.1.3
218------------------
219Beta: `TreeStructureVisitor`, and `LexicalPreservingPrinter`.
220
221A start has been made on source level support. The default level is Java 8.
222It can be set to Java 9 like this for a parser *instance*:
223```java
224private final JavaParser parser = new JavaParser(new ParserConfiguration().setValidator(new Java9Validator()));
225```
226and like this for the static parse methods:
227```java
228JavaParser.getStaticConfiguration().setValidator(new Java9Validator());
229```
230
231* 862 552 "_" is an illegal identifier on source level 9.

237
238* 594 849 831 a validation framework was introduced to inform about problems in the AST without needing to change the grammar,
239and without requiring parsing code.
240It is open for extension by users.
241* 852 853 826 832 846 839 smaller improvements and fixes
242
Danny van Bruggenf50a5512017-03-04 18:14:46 +0100243Version 3.1.1
244------------------
245Beta: `TreeStructureVisitor`, `ConcreteSyntaxModel`, and `LexicalPreservingPrinter`.
246
247* 654 124 lexical preservation (printing source code with the same formatting it had when parsing) has been added.
248 Thank you @ftomassetti for a lot of work!
249* 554 800 first (big) step towards Java 9 support: JavaParser can read project Jigsaw module definitions.
250* 795 786 751 extend the TreeVisitor with more traversal options. Thanks @ryan-beckett!
251* 791 `GenericListVisitorAdapter` has been added which collects its results in a list. Thanks @Gottox!
252* 815 798 797 813 clean up Problem text
253* 819 818 817 816 441 809 808 807 fix various absurd annotation related issues.

Danny van Bruggenf50a5512017-03-04 18:14:46 +0100258Beta: `TreeStructureVisitor` and `ConcreteSyntaxModel`.
Danny van Bruggen076d3ee2017-02-19 22:56:24 +0100259
260* 705 755 Add the concrete syntax model, which will give you information about the exact syntax a certain nodes matches.
261
262* 777 smaller improvements and fixes
263
Danny van Bruggenadae33f2017-02-14 19:59:50 +0100264Version 3.1.0-beta.2
265------------------
266This version is a beta because `TreeStructureVisitor` is not in its definite state yet.
267
268* 762 761 772 merge `javaparser-metamodel` and `javaparser-generator-utils` into `javaparser-core`.
269* 766 the `ModifierVisitor` is now created by a code generator. Its behaviour has been made logical, and may give different results than before.
270* 755 `ConstructorDeclaration` and `MethodDeclaration` now share a parent: `CallableDeclaration`
271* 687 759 773 769 768 767 765 759 smaller improvements and fixes
272
Danny van Bruggen23d54772017-02-05 16:21:16 +0100273Version 3.1.0-beta.1
Danny van Bruggen70f343e2017-01-28 14:07:25 +0100274------------------
Danny van Bruggen23d54772017-02-05 16:21:16 +0100275This version is a beta because there are a lot of new features that may still change.
276
277This version needs a minor version increase because of a backwards compatability issue:
278* 719 `getJavadoc`, `getJavadocComment` and `getComment` could return null. Our promise was to return `Optional`, so that is what they do now.
Danny van Bruggen70f343e2017-01-28 14:07:25 +0100279
280New:
Danny van Bruggene6079d82017-02-05 16:50:01 +0100281* 658 718 736 737 we have created a metamodel.
Danny van Bruggen23d54772017-02-05 16:21:16 +0100282It gives information about the structure of the various AST nodes, as if you are introspecting them.
283You can find it in `javaparser-metamodel`, the main class is `JavaParserMetaModel`
Danny van Bruggene6079d82017-02-05 16:50:01 +0100284* 353 365 visitors are no longer hand made, they are now generated from the metamodel. This should make them 100% reliable.
Danny van Bruggen23d54772017-02-05 16:21:16 +0100285Affected visitors are: `GenericVisitorAdapter`, `EqualsVisitor`, `VoidVisitorAdapter`, `VoidVisitor`, `GenericVisitor`, `HashCodeVisitor`, `CloneVisitor`.
286
287If you want to generate your own visitors, you can use the `VisitorGenerator` class from `javaparser-core-generators`
288
289If you want to reuse the code generation utilities, look at module `javaparser-generator-utils` - there is a very useful `SourceRoot` class in there that takes away a lot of file management troubles.
Danny van Bruggene6079d82017-02-05 16:50:01 +0100290* 538 735 `TreeStructureVisitor` has been added, which should be considered beta.
