  ✂ Removed

  • ✂ Removed dependencies on proprietary Sun API

• v2.1.0 Changes

  2.1.X is not strictly API compatible with 2.0.X but compared to going from 1.0.X to 2.0.X there will be fewer API breaking changes

  🔄 Changed

  • 👌 Improved API for RadioCheckBoxList

  • TextArea can now be modified (experimental feature)

  🔄 Changed

  • 🐧 Font fixes. Hopefully it will look better on Linux now
  • Invisible components no longer receive focus
  • 🚀 The size policies are working better now but they are still somewhat mysterious. I will try to come up with something better for the 2.1.0 release

  What about 2.0.2?

  🚀 There is no 2.0.2. I did a mistake staging the new release and had to start over again but 2.0.2 had already been tagged in Mercurial so I could not re-release it. Instead we skipped a number and landed on 2.0.3

• v2.0.1 Changes

  ➕ Added

  • ➕ Added Screen.clear() that allows resetting the content of the screen
  • ➕ Added Terminal.getTerminalSize() to synchronously retrieve the current size of the terminal
  • ➕ Added new overloads so that you can specify a separate font to use for bold text in SwingTerminal
  • SwingTerminal will now render underlined text
  • SwingTerminal will expose its internal JFrame through a new method getJFrame(), allowing you to set a custom title, icon, image list etc.

  🔄 Changed

  • 🗄 queryTerminalSize() has been marked as deprecated but will still work as before
  • 🛠 TextBox and PasswordBox constructors that did not take a width parameter were broken, fixed and changed so that the initial size (unless forced) will be at least 10 columns wide

• v2.0.0 Changes

  ➕ Added

  • ➕ Added a new facade class, TerminalFacade, which provides some convenience methods for creating terminal objects
  • ➕ Added experimental, but not very functional, support for Cygwin
  • Expanded Interactable.Result and Interactable.FocusChangeDirection to allow focus switching in four directions instead of only two
  • Introduced AbstractListBox which has standardized the format and the methods of the list-based GUI elements
  • Mavenized the project, will try to push it to Maven Central somehow

  🔄 Changed

  • 🚚 Moved com.googlecode.lanterna.TerminalFactory to com.googlecode.lanterna.terminal where it belongs
  • 🚚 Moved Terminal.addInputProfile(...) to InputProvider
  • 💅 Moved Terminal.Style to an outer class in com.googlecode.lanterna.screen
  • 🚚 Moved SwingTerminal to com.googlecode.lanterna.terminal.swing
  • 🚚 Moved Terminal.setCBreak(...) and Terminal.setEcho(...) into ANSITerminal. You probably don't need to call these directly anyway, since they are automatically called for the UnixTerminal when entering private mode
  • Rearranged the Terminal hierarchy. This is mostly internal but you might have been using CommonUnixTerminal before which is now known as com.googlecode.lanterna.terminal.text.UnixTerminal
  • 📦 Renamed the project's package name from org.lantern to com.googlecode.lanterna
  • 📇 Renamed LanternException to LanternaException for consistency
  • LanternaException is now a RuntimeException since IOExceptions coming from stdin and stdout are quite rare
  • 📇 Renamed some enums and an internal class in Theme. You probably will not be affected by this unless you have defined your own theme

  ✂ Removed

  • ✂ Removed LanternTerminal and TerminalFactory as they were quite confusing and not really necessary
  • ✂ Removed ListBox as there is not much purpose for it in this environment
  • ✂ Removed RadioCheckBox and RadioCheckBoxGroup. RadioCheckBoxList acts as a replacement
  • ✂ Removed TermInfo classes (they did not really work so hopefully no one was using them)

  Maven

  🚀 Starting with the 2.0.0 release, Lanterna has been using Maven and the Sonatype OSS repository which is synchronized with Maven Central. Please see the [Maven information page](Maven.md) for more details
