Thanks to Matthew Inger. | ggregory | | RefinedSoundex: Implemented the DIFFERENCE algorithm. Fixes CODEC-45.

All author tags are now "Apache Software Foundation". | ggregory | | The default URL encoding logic was broken. Fixes CODEC-25. Thanks to Oleg Kalnichevski. | ggregory | | Base64 chunked encoding not compliant with RFC 2045 section 2.1 CRLF. Fixes CODEC-31. Thanks to Gary D. Gregory. | ggregory | | Hex converts illegal characters to 255. Fixes CODEC-5. | ggregory | | Metaphone now correctly handles a silent B in a word that ends in MB.

Non-Base64 characters were not being discarded during the decode. RFC 2045 explicitly states that all characters outside of the base64 alphabet are to be ignored. Fixes CODEC-26. Thanks to Brian Ewins. | tobrien | | Hex.decode(Object) throws a ClassCastException when a String argument is passed in. Fixes CODEC-4. | ggregory | | Soundex: The HW rule is not applied; hyphens and apostrophes are not ignored. Fixes CODEC-3. | ggregory | | Soundex.setMaxLength causes bugs and is not needed. Calling Soundex.setMaxLength() with a value of 2 or less causes the wrong answer to be returned. Since the encoding returned by Soundex is always of length 4 by definition (we do not use the '-' in as a letter-nnn separator) the need for a maxLength attribute is not needed. Deprecate the field and accessor methods. Fixes CODEC-29. | ggregory | | Fix in Metaphone relating to the handling of the maximum code length. | Members | Release 1.1 – 29 April 2003 | Type | Changes | By | | A newer version of the Base64 class reflecting improvements from both the commons-httpclient and xml-rpc versions of code forked from catalina. | Members | | Base64 class from commons-httpclient in org.apache.commons.codec.base64 has been retained for backwards compatibility but has been deprecated. | Members | | Soundex class from commons-util in org.apache.commons.codec. | Members | | Metaphone class from commons-util in org.apache.commons.codec. | Members | | RefinedSoundex class in org.apache.commons.codec. | tobrien | | Encoder/Decoder interfaces in org.apache.commons. | Members | | String and Binary specific Encoder/Decoder interfaces in org.apache.commons. | Members | | StringEncoderComparator replaces the SoundexComparator from the language package. | Members | | Base64 now discards whitespace characters when decoding encoded content. | Members | Release 1.0-dev – 25 April 2003 | Type | Changes | By | | Base64 class from commons-httpclient in org.apache.commons.codec.base64. | tobrien | | Soundex class from commons-util in org.apache.commons.codec. | tobrien | | Metaphone class from commons-util in org.apache.commons.codec. | tobrien | | SoundexComparator class from commons-util in org.apache.commons.codec. | Members | |
