Full Changelog: bencode-1.4.1...bencode-1.4.2

v1.4.1

Fix #14 - Write byte[]s correctly instead of implicity calling toString() on them. Thanks @aruthane for the fix!

v1.4

Fix #12 - Properly encode multibyte codepoints. Thanks @manuel-sugawara for the fix!

v1.3.2

Fix #11 - Dictionary keys should appear in sorted order. Thanks @AndSDev for the fix!

v1.3.1

Fix for #7, thanks @lfcnassif for filing.

Allow many more types of numbers to be parsed, but will still only write/return integers (Longs) as per the bencode spec.

v1.3

Fix for #6, thanks @zzyandzzy for filing.

New constructor argument for Bencode and BencodeInputStream a boolean called useBytes. This is especially useful when working with torrent files as not all of the byte strings can be converted to Strings without data loss.

If useBytes is true:

• List and Map values (not keys in Maps) will not be coerced into a String value but instead be kept as binary data in a ByteBuffer.
• ByteBuffer is now understood by the BencodeOutputStream and will be added as byte string data.
• New methods added for writing/reading ByteBuffers added.

If useBytes is false:

• List and Map values will continue to be coerced into Strings.

v1.2.2

Preserve key order by returning a LinkedHashMap. #6
This should work better when working with torrents as hashes should be able to be computed correctly more often.

Thanks to @TheLQ for the fix.

v1.2.1

Speedup encoding by using StringBuilder instead of String.format.
See: #4

Thanks to @EonTechnology for the fix.

v1.2

Fix encoding on locales with non-arabic digits.
See: #3

Thanks to @EonTechnology for the fix.

v1.1.1

Bencode.encode() was not respecting the encoding type passed to the constructor.
See: #2

Thanks to @alepar for the fix.
