JRuby 1.6.0 final is out! JRuby 1.6.0 is the largest release of JRuby to date. This release fixes hundreds of user issues and brings compatibility with Ruby 1.9.2 to a very high level. We have made Windows a primary supported platform by adding it to our continuous integration environment. JRuby 1.6 will provide Windows-based Ruby users with the best experience yet. This release integrates experimental support for C extensions based on Ruby's C API. And as with all major releases, we have improved stability and performance across the board in response to real-world user input. Over the next month or two we plan on putting out quicker point releases in anticipation that 1.6.0 will get a new wave of feedback. Give JRuby 1.6.0 a try and let us know how things go. ### Major Features: - Ruby 1.9.2 language and API compatibility - Not implemented Encoding::Converter, ripper - Improved Ruby call performance - Built-in profiler (--profile, --profile.graph) - RSpec no longer bundled - C Extension support (experimental) - RubyGems Maven support (preview) - Improved compatibility and user experience on Windows - jruby-complete.jar now includes 1.9 standard library - Embedding API refinements - Over 2000 commits and 270 issues resolved. -- blog: http://blog.enebo.com twitter: tom_enebo mail: [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
