Hello All, *About DataSketches-Memory*
This component of the DataSketches library provides high-performance access to off-heap memory for Java applications. These are low-level functions that are used by other DataSketches components. It does not provide any command-line interface or GUI. *This release addressed the following issues:* - Fixed an issue where a few tests would not compile in Windows. Also a multi-os matrix GitHub Action has been added to check for this in the future. - Other minor documentation improvements and some cleanup. *NOTES:* - This Release of DataSketches Memory is for Java 17. - This release will only compile on Java 17, but the class files may run on Java versions higher than 17. It uses the new jdk.incubator.foreign (Panama) instead of relying on JVM internals. Please refer to the formal Java documentation. - This version of Memory has eliminated a great deal of extra baggage due to the previous reliance on JVM internals. As a result the code is much smaller and simpler than its predecessor and may be faster. - There is an issue with the current GigHub Action workflow "javadoc". As a result, the Javadocs for this release obtained from the datasketches.apache.org website will not be correct. This will be fixed as soon as possible. You can always download the javadoc.jar from https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/releases/org/apache/datasketches/datasketches-memory/4.1.0/ *LINKS:* 1.
