### 1.3.1 - 2016-12-30
This release fixes an issue with ignored annotations that were already
autoloaded, causing the `SimpleAnnotationReader` to pick them up
anyway. [#110](https://github.com/doctrine/annotations/pull/110)
Additionally, an issue was fixed in the `CachedReader`, which was
not correctly checking the freshness of cached annotations when
traits were defined on a class. [#105](https://github.com/doctrine/annotations/pull/105)
Total issues resolved: **2**
- [105: Return single max timestamp](https://github.com/doctrine/annotations/pull/105)
- [110: setIgnoreNotImportedAnnotations(true) didn’t work for existing classes](https://github.com/doctrine/annotations/pull/110)
### 1.3.0
This release introduces a PHP version bump. `doctrine/annotations` now requires PHP
5.6 or later to be installed.
A series of additional improvements have been introduced:
* support for PHP 7 "grouped use statements"
* support for ignoring entire namespace names
via `Doctrine\Common\Annotations\AnnotationReader::addGlobalIgnoredNamespace()` and
`Doctrine\Common\Annotations\DocParser::setIgnoredAnnotationNamespaces()`. This will
allow you to ignore annotations from namespaces that you cannot autoload
* testing all parent classes and interfaces when checking if the annotation cache
in the `CachedReader` is fresh
* simplifying the cache keys used by the `CachedReader`: keys are no longer artificially
namespaced, since `Doctrine\Common\Cache` already supports that
* corrected parsing of multibyte strings when `mbstring.func_overload` is enabled
* corrected parsing of annotations when `"\t"` is put before the first annotation
in a docblock
* allow skipping non-imported annotations when a custom `DocParser` is passed to
the `AnnotationReader` constructor
