v1.0.0

Release 1.0.0

This release marks the completion of all major intended features of
7Units.

At this point, 7Units has an official public API which will only be
changed backwards-incompatibly when the major version increments.

Additions:
- Allowed conversion to a sum of units (e.g. 4/3 ft → 1 ft + 4 in).
- Allowed exponents on units to be non-integer numbers.
  The resulting exponents are rounded to the nearest integer,
  and the user is warned if this rounding changes the value
  by more than normal floating-point error.
- Added the ability to change the language of 7Units's UI.
  This does not affect the names of units, prefixes and dimensions.
- Added more information to the loading-success message,
  and added it to the about tab.
- Added the ability to not use the default data files.
- Added the ability to generate Javadoc automatically.

Changes:
- Errors in unit/dimension files are shown in popups,
  rather than crashing the program.
- Significantly increased number and coverage of automated tests.

Fixes:
- Fixed encoding of ± character in values with uncertainty.
- ExpressionParser uses the correct order internally.
  Note: this failure was only visible if you call the submethods;
  the public method fixed the problem on its own.
  This was fixed primarily to improve testing.

v1.0.0b2

Version 1.0.0-beta.2

- Improved testing, achieved 75% code coverage
- Fixed operand order in ExpressionParser (a six year old bug!)
- Updated documentation
- Setup Javadoc generation command

v1.0.0b1

Pre-Release 1.0.0-beta.1

Compared to version 0.5.0, this release:

- allows conversion to sums of units (e.g. 4/3 ft → 1 ft + 4 in)
- allows non-integer exponents in expressions
- adds the ability to change the UI language
- gracefully handles datafile errors
- adds more information to the loading-success message,
  and adds it to the About tab
- allows the user to not use the default datafiles

No new features will be added until the release of version 1.0.0.

v1.0.0a1

7Units Version 1.0.0-alpha.1

Added:
- Allowed converting to a sum of units (e.g. 4/3 ft → 1 ft + 4 in), in
  both modes.
- Allowed exponents on units to be non-integer real numbers.
  The resulting unit's exponents are rounded to the nearest integer, and
  the user is warned if this changes the value by more than float error.
- Added more information to the loading-success message, and added
  it to the About tab.

Changed:
- Errors in unit- and dimension-files are shown in popups, rather than
  crashing the program.

Fixed:
- Fixed the encoding of the ± characters used in uncertain doubles.
