The Apache Ant Team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Ant
1.10.10.
Apache Ant is a Java library and command-line tool that helps building
software.
The Apache Ant team currently maintains two lines of development. The
1.9.x releases require Java 5 at runtime and 1.10.x requires Java 8 at
runtime. Both lines are based off of Ant 1.9.7 and the 1.9.x releases
are mostly bug fix releases while additional new features are developed
for 1.10.x. We recommend using 1.10.10 unless you are required to use
versions of Java prior to Java 8 during the build process.
Ant 1.10.10 contains various bug fixes as well as some enhancements. The
complete set of changes is listed at the end of this mail.
Source and binary distributions are available for download from the
Apache Ant download site:

When downloading, please verify signatures using the KEYS file available
at the above location when downloading the release.
Changes in 1.10.10 are as follows:
Fixed bugs:
-----------
* SCP (with sftp=true) task would fail if fetching file located in
root directory
Bugzilla Report 64742
* javac task would fail if the arguments file it (internally) created
didn't quote
the # character. This has now been fixed.
Bugzilla Reports 64912, 64790
* made sure LegacyXmlResultFormatter encodes characters illegal in
XML the same way JUnit5's built-in formatter would.
Bugzilla Report 65030
* LegacyXmlResultFormatter no longer double-encodes <>& in system-err
and system-out
Bugzilla Report 63436
* Fixes a bug in junitlauncher task's legacy-xml formatter, where the
testcase
representing a @Parameterized JUnit4 test wasn't being reported in
the XML.
Bugzilla Report 64952
* Fixes a bug where the ant-testutil-sources.jar that gets published
to Maven
central repository didn't contain any source files.
Bugzilla Report 65110
* The <http> condition didn't follow redirects from http to https.
Bugzilla Report 65105
* ZipOutputStream now overrides write(int) in order to make sure
single byte writes get the same treatment as array writes.
Github Pull Request #145
* Fixes a potential deadlock in junitlauncher task when using legacy-xml
reporter.
Bugzilla Report 64733
Other changes:
--------------
* javaversion condition now has a new "atmost" attribute. See the
javaversion
manual for more details
* The "listener" nested element of the "junitlauncher" task now has a new
"useLegacyReportingName" attribute which can be used to control the test
identifiers names that get reported by the listener. See the
junitlauncher
manual for more details.
Note that this change also introduces a new
"setUseLegacyReportingName" method
on the
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.junitlauncher.TestResultFormatter
interface. This will break backward compatibility with any of your
custom
result formatters which implemented this interface and such
implementations
are now expected to implement this new method.
* a new attribute preserveduplicates allows <resourcelist> to return
the same resource multiple times when set to true.
Bugzilla Report 64854
* a new attribute filterbeforeconcat in <concat> can be used to
decide whether the filterchain should be applied to the
concatenated content (the default) or each nested resource
individually before concatenating them.
Bugzilla Report 64855
* the ssh tasks now share a new nested element additionalConfig that
can be used to set config values for the jsch Session used by the
task.
Bugzilla Report 65089
* added new discardOutput and discardError properties to redirector
and the exec, apply and java tasks which can be used to completely
discard any (error) output. This is a platform independent
alternative to directiong output to any kind of null device.
* junitlauncher now prints a more useful and instantaneous summary
of
tests being run, closely matching the junit task's summary.
