2011-01-14 Thread mark . reinhold
The JDK 7 Project has reached a major milestone: It is Feature-Complete. This means that all of the planned features have been implemented and integrated into the master forest, along with their unit tests, and all other planned tests have been written and run on a representative set of platforms.

We've reached Milestone 12, also known as the "Developer Preview" release. We'll strongly encourage developers, deployers, and end users to download and test this build and submit bug reports promptly, ideally by the end of March. For reference, the proprietary Oracle builds can be found here: ht

JDK 7 status: Rampdown

2011-05-16 Thread mark . reinhold
We're past the "All targeted bugs addressed" milestone of 11 May, per the high-level schedule posted back in January [1]. We're currently analyzing about 70 open bugs. We expect to defer most of these to a future release but a few will likely be fixed in JDK 7. As of this Wednesday, 18 May, only

JDK 7 -> JDK 8

2011-05-24 Thread mark . reinhold
The JDK 8 Project has just been created. If you contributed at least one changeset to JDK 7 then you've automatically been subscribed to the jdk8-dev mailing list. If you didn't contribute to JDK 7 you're still welcome to subscribe to the JDK 8 list, but you'll have to do so yourself. Either way

JDK 7: Are we there yet?

2011-06-21 Thread mark . reinhold
Very nearly ... Build 146 has been tagged in the JDK 7 master forest. We're still chasing down a few bugs, so this isn't quite a Release Candidate, but it's very close. Binaries of this build will undergo a final round of JCK testing and then, if all goes well, be declared the Reference Implemen

JDK 7 Build 147 is the first Release Candidate

2011-07-06 Thread mark . reinhold
After an initial round of testing we've declared build 147 to be the first Release Candidate for JDK 7. If no new showstopper issues are reported, and if JSR 336 [1] and the component JSRs pass their Final Approval Ballots in the JCP, then this will be the GA build for release later this month per
