Compress Roadmap

About this page

Compress is preparing for a first release 1.0. The following page trys to describe necessary changes before the first release can happen. If there are changes for a later release, they will be added here too.

Commons Compress 1.0

  • Gump: Compress is included in the Sandbox. Should go to proper components. See also: http://vmgump.apache.org/gump/public/commons-sandbox/index.html
  • ChangeSet Support (SANDBOX-183): Decide if this goes into the release as experimental or not. If it does, SANDBOX-183 should be marked resolved.
  • Improve maven site stuff, which is a bit outdated now. Dennis Lundberg and Siegfried Goeschl offered their help with maven stuff, maybe this happens on Hackathon.
  • CPIO implementation needs more testcases. This is implementation is very new to compress and risky.

Issues planned to solve for 1.0:

  • SANDBOX-183 Compress should allow for writing to Zip Files --> EXPERIMENTAL
  • SANDBOX-296 Ar doesn't delete correct
  • SANDBOX-300 Threading Requirements
  • SANDBOX-298 BZip2CompressorInputStream.reportCRCError() does not report problems to user --> PATCH AVAILABLE
  • SANDBOX-294 Change API to make fields private where possible --> PATCH AVAILABLE
  • SANDBOX-124 [compress] bzip2 - implement flush() --> SOLVED - please close in Jira

  • SANDBOX-286 BZip2CompressorInputStream doesn't work if wrapped into InputStreamReader --> won't fix, please close in Jira
