Significant API additions and changes

New package! common.graph

common.graph is a library for modeling graph-structured data, that is, entities and the relationships between them. Its purpose is to provide a common and extensible language for working with such data.

common.base

• CharMatcher constants have been deprecated in favor of the static factory methods that were added in 19.0. The constants will be removed after a 2-year deprecation cycle.
• Preconditions: new overloads of checkNotNull and checkState added to avoid varargs array allocation and primitive boxing for the most common argument combinations.
• Predicates: assignableFrom(Class<?>) deprecated and the correctly-named equivalent subtypeOf(Class<?>) added.
• Throwables
  • throwIfInstanceOf and throwIfUnchecked added.
  • propagate, propagateIfInstanceOf and propagateIfPossible deprecated.

common.collect

• ConcurrentHashMultiset: create(MapMaker) deprecated and create(ConcurrentMap) added.
• FluentIterable: a number of new static factory methods, such as concat(Iterable) and of() added.
• Iterators: deprecated method emptyIterator() removed.
• MapConstraints: Most methods removed; the class was scheduled to be removed in this release, but full removal is pushed back.
• Maps: subMap(NavigableMap, Range) added.
• Ordering: binarySearch deprecated.
• RangeSet: intersects(Range) added.
• Sets: subSet(NavigableSet, Range) added.
• TreeTraverser: factory method using(Function) added to adapt a node -> children Function to a TreeTraverser.

common.hash

• Hashing: a number of new hash functions added, including FarmHash Fingerprint64 and a number of HMAC algorithms.

common.io

• InputSupplier and OutputSupplier: removed.
• BaseEncoding: canDecode(CharSequence) added.
• ByteStreams: exhaust(InputStream) added.
• CharSource: asByteSource(Charset) added.
• CharStreams: exhaust(Readable) added.

common.math

Many additions, most related to statistics:

• Quantiles
• Stats and StatsAccumulator, PairedStats and PairedStatsAccumulator
• LinearTransformation
• DoubleMath: mean methods deprecated in favor of using Stats.

New methods added to IntMath, LongMath and DoubleMath such as:

• ceilingPowerOfTwo
• isPrime

common.net

• HostAndPort: getHostText() deprecated in favor of new getHost() method.
• HttpHeaders and MediaType: a number of new header/media type constants added.

common.reflect

• ClassPath.ResourceInfo: asByteSource() and asCharSource(Charset) methods added.
• TypeToken: isAssignableFrom methods removed (replaced by isSubtypeOf in 19.0).

common.util.concurrent

• FutureFallback: removed.
  • Futures.withFallback methods removed.
• AsyncCallable: added.
  • Callables.asAsyncCallable(Callable, ListeningExecutorService) added.
• Futures.FutureCombiner: added.
  • Futures.whenAllComplete and whenAllSucceed, returning FutureCombiner, added.
• AbstractFuture: afterDone() callback added.
• AtomicLongMap: removeIfZero(K) added.
• Futures:
  • get methods taking an exception Class removed; previously replaced with getChecked.
  • transform methods taking AsyncFunction removed; previously replaced with transformAsync.
