  • v2.1 Changes

    December 20, 2018

    Overview for 2.1

    🚀 After a long hiatus without releases, this version simplifies the packaging of Hamcrest into a single jar: hamcrest-<version>.jar. Other big changes include Java 9 module compatibility, migrating the code repository from Google Code to 🛠 GitHub, along with numerous other new features, improvements and bug fixes.

    💥 Breaking Changes for 2.1

    • 📦 The way that the project is packaged has changed. This may cause problems with ⬆️ correctly upgrading transitive dependencies. Refer to the Hamcrest Distributables 📚 documentation for more information, and in particular, ⬆️ Upgrading from Hamcrest 1.x
    • 🚚 org.hamcrest.Factory has been removed. This was only used in old implementations 🏗 of the hamcrest build toolchain, and can safely be deleted from client code without any effect.

    • Several JavaDoc improvements and corrections
    • 🛠 Fix JavaDoc examples
