              Apache Commons Codec 1.7 RELEASE NOTES

The codec package contains simple encoder and decoders for
various formats such as Base64 and Hexadecimal.  In addition to these
widely used encoders and decoders, the codec package also maintains a
collection of phonetic encoding utilities.

Feature and fix release.

Changes in this version include:

New features:
o CODEC-139:  DigestUtils: add updateDigest methods and make methods public. Thanks to dsebastien.
o CODEC-133:  Add classes for MD5/SHA1/SHA-512-based Unix crypt(3) hash variants. Thanks to lathspell.
o CODEC-130:  Base64InputStream.skip skips underlying stream, not output Thanks to tn.
o CODEC-63:   Implement NYSIIS Thanks to bayard.

Fixed Bugs:
o CODEC-96:   Base64 encode() method is no longer thread-safe, breaking clients using it as a shared BinaryEncoder.
              Note: the fix breaks binary compatibility, however the changes are to a class (BaseNCodec) which is
              intended for internal use. Thanks to sebb.
o CODEC-138:  Complete FilterInputStream interface for BaseNCodecInputStream
o CODEC-136:  Use Charset objects when possible, create Charsets for required character encodings
o CODEC-132:  BeiderMorseEncoder OOM issues Thanks to rcmuir.
o CODEC-131:  DoubleMetaphone javadoc contains dead links Thanks to smolav.

Changes:
o CODEC-143:  StringBuffer could be replaced by StringBuilder for local variables.


Known issue only on IBM Java 5:
