Changed Classes and Interfaces
Charsets	Contains constant definitions for the six standard Charset instances, which are guaranteed to be supported by all Java platform implementations.
Converter	A function from {@code A} to {@code B} with an associated reverse function from {@code B} to {@code A}; used for converting back and forth between different representations of the same information.
Equivalence.Wrapper	Wraps an object so that .equals(Object) and .hashCode() delegate to an Equivalence.
Function	Determines an output value based on an input value; a pre-Java-8 version of java.util.function.Function.
Joiner	An object which joins pieces of text (specified as an array, Iterable, varargs or even a Map) with a separator. It either appends the results to an Appendable or returns them as a String. Example: {@snippet : Joiner joiner = Joiner.on("; ").skipNulls(); . . . return joiner.join("Harry", null, "Ron", "Hermione"); }
MoreObjects.ToStringHelper	Support class for MoreObjects.toStringHelper.
Objects	Helper functions that can operate on any {@code Object}.
Optional	An immutable object that may contain a non-null reference to another object.
Preconditions	Static convenience methods that help a method or constructor check whether it was invoked correctly (that is, whether its preconditions were met).
Predicate	Determines a true or false value for a given input; a pre-Java-8 version of java.util.function.Predicate.
Splitter	Extracts non-overlapping substrings from an input string, typically by recognizing appearances of a separator sequence.
StandardSystemProperty	Represents a System#getProperties() standard system property.
Stopwatch	An object that accurately measures elapsed time: the measured duration between two successive readings of "now" in the same process.
Strings	Static utility methods pertaining to {@code String} or {@code CharSequence} instances.
Throwables	Static utility methods pertaining to instances of Throwable.
Verify	Static convenience methods that serve the same purpose as Java language assertions, except that they are always enabled.
VerifyException	Exception thrown upon the failure of a verification check, including those performed by the convenience methods of the Verify class.
