Bug fix release.

Potential breaking changes

  • If you use some optional dependency of dom4j (for example Jaxen, xsdlib etc.), you need to specify an explicit dependency on it in your project. They are no longer marked as a mandatory transitive dependency by dom4j.
  • Following SAX parser features are disabled by default in DocumentHelper.parse() for security reasons (they were enabled in previous versions):
    • http://xml.org/sax/properties/external-general-entities
    • http://xml.org/sax/properties/external-parameter-entities
