3 jardiff jardiff 0.1 OSJava http://www.osjava.org/ http://www.osjava.org/images/osjava.gif 2005 org.osjava.jardiff http://www.osjava.org/images/osjava.gif Motivation At OSjava, we were using a shell script to work out API differences between our release versions. This unfortunately doesn't scale very well to larger projects, the main reason for jardiff was to do the same in a much shorter time (From memory it was taking minutes to get the API diff from two fairly small jars). In it's current state, jardiff can generate the api differences between rt.jar for java 1.4 and java 1.5 in under 20 seconds, so it should scale to even the largest of projects.

Aims

To generate a report on public API differences between two different releases of a java project.

Future

There's a whole bunch of things I'd like to see added in future

A prettier html output format
Ability to provide change compatability information
Ability to show non public API changes
Plugins for various tools, e.g. maven, eclipse, ant.
Ability to link html output to javadoc.
