FindBugs full changelog

BSHIFT_WRONG_ADD_PRIORITY,
CO_COMPARETO_INCORRECT_FLOATING,
DC_PARTIALLY_CONSTRUCTED,

Includes all the changes featured in the previous Beta versions

FindBugs supports Java 8 now (both as runtime and target platform).
FindBugs requires minimum Java 7 as runtime environment
FindBugs uses ASM 5 now which means that some 3rd party detectors based on FindBugs 2.x/ASM 3 has to be upgraded. See details in ASM documentation.
New Bug patterns: NP_OPTIONAL_RETURN_NULL, IIO_INEFFICIENT_INDEX_OF, IIO_INEFFICIENT_LAST_INDEX_OF CNT_ROUGH_CONSTANT_VALUE
New "Source" filter which can be used to filter out classes generated from other languages
New "-auxclasspathFromFile" and "-analyzeFromFile" command line options.

New Bug patterns: DM_BOXED_PRIMITIVE_FOR_PARSING, NP_METHOD_RETURN_RELAXING_ANNOTATION, and NP_METHOD_PARAMETER_TIGHTENS_ANNOTATION
Add the ability in the GUI to save the currently viewable/filtered bugs to HTML output.
When dataflow does't terminate, make sure we continue with analysis.
Fix some problems that resulting in dataflow analysis not terminating
Get parameter annotations from default parameters annotations applied to the method.
Add subversion change number to eclipse plugin qualifier.
Disabled detector for AM_CREATES_EMPTY_JAR_FILE_ENTRY; it complaints inappropriately about code that creates directory entries.
Add warnings about incompatible types passed to org.testng.Assert.assertEquals
Add logic that understands more of the Google Guava APIs.
Disable type qualifier validator execution within Eclipse plugin; too many problems with class loading and security manager (see #1154 Random obscure Eclipse failures)

Fix false positions for NP_NONNULL_FIELD_NOT_INITIALIZED_IN_CONSTRUCTOR - fixing Bug3547559, Bug3555408, Bug3580266 and Bug3587164.
Fix false positives for SF_SWITCH_NO_DEFAULT
Type qualifier annotations, including nullness annotations, are now ignored on vararg parameters (including default and inherited annotations), awaiting JSR308.
Defined new bug pattern to give better explanations of issues involving strict type qualifiers TQ_UNKNOWN_VALUE_USED_WHERE_ALWAYS_STRICTLY_REQUIRED
Adjusted analysis of type qualifiers, now giving warnings where a computed value is used in a place where a value with a strict type qualifier is required.
Complain about missing classes only if they are encountered while analyzing application classes; ignore missing classes that are encounted while analyzing classes loaded from the auxclasspath. Fix for Bug3588379
Fixed false positive null pointer warning coming from synthetic bridge methods, fixing Bug3589328
