1.1.1 (2012-10-25)

This release bumps the minor version number from 1.0 to 1.1. This is because there are backwards-incompatible changes. There shouldn't be anything else that breaks than package renames and a few class renames. The reason for these breaking changes is to make it more obvious what parts of the API are public and what parts are not. From now on, anything in the cucumber.api package and below is public. If you're importing any cucumber.* packages that don't start with cucumber.api you're using an internal API, and that might still change in future releases. The goal is to have anything in cucumber.api stable from now on, with proper deprecation warnings in case some APIs still need to change.

• [Scala] Up the cucumber-scala Scala dependencies to 2.10.0-RC1 (#409 Chris Turner)
• [JRuby] Upgraded to JRuby 1.7.0 (Aslak Hellesøy)
• [JRuby] I18n stepdefs. require 'cucumber/api/jruby/en' or other language. (#177 Aslak Hellesøy)
• [JRuby] Calling steps from stepefs now uses the step method (Aslak Hellesøy)
• [JRuby] World(module) works (Aslak Hellesøy)
• [JRuby] The DSL no longer leaks into global scope (Aslak Hellesøy)
• [Spring] The @txn hooks in the cucumber.runtime.java.spring.hooks package have order 100. (398 Aslak Hellesøy)
• [Java] The @Order annotation is replaced with an order property on @Before and @After (Aslak Hellesøy)
• [Core] Make sure all report files are written with UTF-8 encoding (402 MIC, Aslak Hellesøy)
• [Core] HTMLFormatter improvements (375, 404, 283 Aslak Hellesøy)
• [All] Package reorganisation. Only classes under cucumber.api are part of the public (stable) API. Classes in other classes are not part of the API and can change. (Aslak Hellesøy)
• [Core] Improved Transformer API (Aslak Hellesøy)
• [Java] Renamed @DateFormat to @Format (Aslak Hellesøy)
• [Core] Fixed a bug where -Dcucumber.options="--format pretty" would fail with the JUnit runner. (Aslak Hellesøy).
• [Core] Scenario Transform header being treated like an object (no bugfix, but added explanation) (#396 Aslak Hellesøy)
• [Core] TableDiff with list of pojos: camelcase convert of column names to field names (#385 mbusik)
• [Core] Added video/ogg mimetype to embedd videos in the HTMLReport (#390 Klaus Bayrhammer)

• [Java] The java module (and all other modules) finally compile on JDK 7 and OS X. (David Kowis, Sébastien Le Callonnec, Aslak Hellesøy)
• [Core] The cucumber.options System property will no longer completely override all arguments set in @Cucumber.Options or on the command line. Instead, it will keep those and only override those that are specified in cucumber.options. Special cases are --tags, --name and path:line, which will override previous tags/names/lines. To override a boolean option (options that don't take arguments like --monochrome), use the --no- counterpart (--no-monochrome). (#388 Sébastien Le Callonnec, Aslak Hellesøy)

1.0.14 (2012-08-20)
