The Apache Ant Team is pleased to announce the release of Apache
CycloneDX Antlib 0.2.

The Apache CycloneDX Antlib is a library of Apache Ant types and a task
that support the creation of CycloneDX SBOMs.

Version 0.2 brings major improvements over the intial release. SBOMs can
now be based on Ivy modules for projects using Apache Ivy. Also the
CycloneDX Core Java dependency has been updated so that CycloneDX 1.7
SBOMs are created by default now.

Several lessons learned while applying the Antlib to the other Ant code
bases have lead to additional improvements.

The full list of changes in this release is:

## Changes that Could Break Older Environments:

* The name attribute of properties is required by the spec and this is
  now enforced.

* Generalized sbomLink to a ComponentResolver componentdef. As a side
  effect the nested sbomLink element of component now must live in the
  "antlib:org.apache.ant.cyclonedx" XML namespace (i.e. something like
  cdx:sbomLink).

## Fixed Bugs:

* The name attribute of properties is required by the spec and this is
  now enforced.

* metadata.tools.component of generated SBOMs now contains hashes of
  ant-cyclonedx as has been intended originally.

## Other Changes:

* A new type "propertyset" can be used to group properties and reuse
  common sets of properties for multiple components.

* When using sbomLink for a component, the link is an URL and the
  component-element doesn't define a "bom"-type external reference
  itself a "bom" externalreference with the URL as value is added to the
  component.

  This behavior can be suppressed by an attribute.

* A new resource collection "fsonlymappedresources" has been added that
  decorates file-system-only resource collections modifying the names of
  the resources just like Ant's built-in mappedresources but still
  allows tasks to access the original files.

  This should only be used with componentbom's purefileresources nested
  element. Other tasks and types may bypass the mapped name if they can
  go to the underlying files directly.

* A new specialized task "archivebom" simplifies creation of SBOMs for
  distribution zips/tarballs by providing a few defaults.

* The componentbom and archivebom tasks honor the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
  environment variable as well as Ant's magic properties
  ant.tstamp.now.iso and ant.tstamp.now and use either as timestamp for
  the generated SBOM for reproducible builds. The default still is to
  use the current point in time as timestamp.

* A new attribute "serialNumber" of the componentbom task allows the
  serial number of the generated SBOM to be set to a fixed value for
  reproducible builds.  If the attribute is not set but
  SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is defined the serial number will be calculated from
  SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH and the main component's coordinates.

* The array valued parts of the generated SBOM now have a stable sort
  order to support reproducible builds.

* Updated cyclonedx-java-core library dependency to 13.2.0.

* The default SBOM version now is 1.7 and the isExternal attribute of
  component now also sets the attribute in the generated SBOM.

* Added a ComponentResolver "ivyModule" which uses Apache Ivy to fill in
  the details of a component and its dependencies.  This adds Ivy as a
  new dependency which is only required if you want to use this feature.

* The license element now tries to guess the license's SPDX id if only a
  name is given.

* The license element now supports a new expression attribute you can
  use to specify license expressions.

* A new attribute compositionAggregate on component allows you to
  specify the completeness of the component's description.

* Updated the Ant dependency to 1.10.18, but the library should work
  with earlier versions of Ant 1.10.x.
