I did a review of  <https://github.com/apache/ant-ivy/pull/33>
https://github.com/apache/ant-ivy/pull/33

Here are the points I have problems with, so I want to discuss them here.

Basically it's about breaking BC. So how to deal with that?

Fixing the spell error in DelegateHandler$ChildElementHandler
(s/childHanlded/childHandled/) means breaking beakward compatiblity. 

We could introduce a delegetate for that:

  /** for BC */

  @Deprecated

  public void childHanlded(DH child) throws SAXParseException {

    childHandled(DH child);

  }

While refactoring you have renamed all occurences in the Ivy codebase. 

On the other hand I don't know the impact (maybe outside of Ivy). I'll bring
that to the dev-list.

 

 

src/java/org/apache/ivy/osgi/repo/FSManifestIterable.java: renaming the
public constant DEFAULT_BUNLDE_FILTER also means breaking BC.

 

 

src/java/org/apache/ivy/osgi/util/Version.java: the constructor removes the
(IMO unneccessary) ParseException. But because it is a checked Exception we
break BC.

 

 

renaming EncrytedProperties to EncryptedProperties means breaking BC. If
required we could introduce a delegating class or a subclass.

 

 

ArtifactOrigin: renaming unkwnown() to unknown() means breaking BC. If
required we could introduce a delegating method.
