 | Test class BugCLI162Test fails under Windows Fixes CLI-175. | oheger |
| OptionBuilder is not reseted in case of an IAE at create. Fixes CLI-177. | joehni |
 | Ant build system removed. | bayard |
| Incomplete usage documentation about Java property option. Fixes CLI-154. | ebourg |

| TypeHandler prints messages to stderr. Fixes CLI-170. | bayard |
| Infinite loop in the wrapping code of HelpFormatter. Fixes CLI-162. | bayard |
| Fixing some minor javadoc issues. | sgoeschl |
| The number of arguments defined for an option specifies the arguments per occurrence of the option
and not for all occurrences. This was a major regression in CLI 1.1 which prevented the use of repeated options. Fixes CLI-137. | ebourg |
 | Added a getOptionProperties() method in the CommandLine class to retrieve easily the key/value pairs
specified with options like -Dkey1=value1 -Dkey2=value2. | ebourg |
 | GnuParser now supports long options with an '=' sign (ie. --foo=bar and -foo=bar) Fixes CLI-157. | ebourg |
| PosixParser no longer ignores unrecognized short options. Fixes CLI-164. | ebourg |
| PosixParser no longer stops the bursting process of a token if stopAtNonOption is enabled and a non option
character is encountered. Fixes CLI-163. | ebourg |
| PosixParser no longer keeps processing the tokens after an unrecognized long option
when stopAtNonOption is enabled. Fixes CLI-165. | ebourg |
| Required options are properly checked if an Options instance is used twice to parse a command line. Fixes CLI-156. | ebourg |
| The ordering of options can be defined in help messages. Fixes CLI-155. | bayard |
| The line wrapping in HelpFormatter now works properly. This caused CLI-162, and thus there was a feature change
for the HelpFormatter in that it is strict on width now rather than what seemed to be lenience before. Text without
whitespace will be cut off to fit in the spacing, and an IllegalStateException will be thrown if it is impossible
to output the information due to spacing constraints. Fixes CLI-151. Thanks to Dan Armbrust. | bayard |
| The message of MissingOptionException has been improved. Fixes CLI-149. | bayard |
| The exceptions have been enhanced with methods to retrieve easily the related options. Fixes CLI-86. | ebourg |
| Option.toString() now reports arguments properly. Fixes CLI-141. Thanks to Henning Schmiedehausen, Bjorn Townsend. | bayard |
| The Parser class has been changed to be more easily extendable. Fixes CLI-142. Thanks to Henning Schmiedehausen. | bayard |
| The following classes are now serializable: Option, OptionGroup, CommandLine and Options. Fixes CLI-140. | bayard |
| OptionValidator is no longer public, its methods were all private. | ebourg |

| Line separator as first char for helpformatter (footer) throws exception. Fixes CLI-8. | |
| CommandLine.getOptionValue() behaves contrary to docs. Fixes CLI-13. | |
| clone method in Option should use super.clone(). Fixes CLI-21. | |
| Passing properties in Parser does not work for options with a single argument. Fixes CLI-23. | |
| Only long options without short option seems to be noticed. Fixes CLI-26. | |
| Infinite Loop in Command-Line processing. Fixes CLI-28. | |
