 #### Java Symbol Table
 
-*   A [bug in symbol table](https://github.com/pmd/pmd/pull/549/commits/0958621ca884a8002012fc7738308c8dfc24b97c) prevented
-    the symbol table analysis to properly match primitive arrays types. The issue [affected the `java-unsedcode/UnusedPrivateMethod`](https://github.com/pmd/pmd/issues/521)
-    rule, but other rules may now produce improved results as consequence of this fix.

+#### Apex Parser Update
+
+The Apex parser version was bumped, from `1.0-sfdc-187` to `1.0-sfdc-224`. This update let us take full advatange
+of the latest improvements from Salesforce, but introduces some breaking changes:
+*   `BlockStatements` are now created for all control structures, even if no brace is used. We have therefore added
+    a `hasCurlyBrace` method to differentiate between both scenarios.
+*   New AST node types are available. In particular `CastExpression`, `ConstructorPreamble`, `IllegalStoreExpression`,
+    `MethodBlockStatement`, `Modifier`, `MultiStatement`, `NestedExpression`, `NestedStoreExpression`,
+    `NewKeyValueObjectExpression` and `StatementExecuted`
+*   Some nodes have been removed. Such is the case of `TestNode`, `DottedExpression` and `NewNameValueObjectExpression`
+    (replaced by `NewKeyValueObjectExpression`)
+
+Al existing rules have been updated to reflect these changes. If you have custom rules, be sure to update them.
