云環境方面的重要改進

• -------------------------------------------
  
    The ReplaceTokens filter can now use token-separators longer than
     one character.
     Bugzilla Report 56584
  
    The changes that added <get>'s support for gzip encoding
     automatically uncompressed content that would not have been touched
     before - like when downloading .tar.gz files.  A new flag has
     been added to control the behavior and its default will make <get>
     work as it did in 1.9.3.
     Bugzilla Report 57048
  
  Bugs 修復
  
• -----------
  
    TarArchiveInputStream failed to read archives with empty gid/uid
     fields.
     Bugzilla Report 56641
  
    TarArchiveInputStream could throw IOException when reading PAX
     headers from a "slow" InputStream.
  
    XMLJunitResultFormatter could throw NullPointerException if Java
     cannot determine the local hostname.
     Bugzilla Report 56593
  
    URLResource#getLastModified tried to access the connection to the
     URL without making sure it was established, potentially leading to
     a NullPointerException when using FTP.
     Bugzilla Report 56873
  
    Long-Name and -link or PAX-header entries in TAR archives
     always had the current time as last modfication time, creating
     archives that are different at the byte level each time an
     archive was built.
  
    runant.py should now work as well when the path of the Java
     executable contains spaces.
     github pull request #1
  
    <junitreport> now supports nested <classpath> and <factory> elements.
     Bugzilla Report 47002
  
    complete-ant-cmd.pl now also knows about the -file option.
     Bugzilla Report 57371
  
    the br-replace template inside the XSLT stylesheets used by
     <junitreport> could cause stack overflows or out-of-memory errors
     when applied to big outputs.
     Bugzilla Report 57341
  
    removed spurious warning about unclosed ZipFiles when reading the
     archive failed.
     Port of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-297
  
    FileUtils.rename which is used by several tasks can throw a
     NullPointerException if the "normal" renameTo operation fails and
     an exception occurs while rename falls back to copying and
     deleting the file.
     Bugzilla Report 57533
  
    complete-ant-cmd.pl would incorrectly suggest words from the build
     file description.
     Bugzilla Report 51931
  
    complete-ant-cmd.pl now also completes tasks without a description.
     Bugzilla Report 57542
  
    LocalPropertyStack could run into ConcurrentModificationException
     when tasks spawned new child threads that accessed the properties.
     Bugzilla Report 55074
  
    TarEntry's constructor with a File and a String arg didn't
     normalize the name.
  
    Between 1.8.4 and 1.9.0 TarInputStream started to parse file
     names using the platform's default encoding rather than as ASCII.
     This has been a breaking change that has never been marked as such
     (in fact it went unnoticed).  In order to allow <untar> and
     <tarfileset> to work on platforms who's encoding doesn't match
     the encoding of file names inside the archive, both now support
     encoding attributes.
     The attribute has also been added to <tar> for symmetry.
