New and Noteworthy

Complete list of bug fixes and enhancements in 1.1.0

Java 9

Compiler

  • the JDT compiler shipped with Tycho has been updated to Photon M4
  • Compilation both using Java 9 as well as using previous Java versions but compiling against Java 9 ( with useJDK=BREE) is supported now
  • Changes for useJDK=BREE:
    • Usage of a JRE JAVA_HOME/jre in toolchains.xml is still supported but deprecated with a warning in favour of simply using JAVA_HOME
    • INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE if you used "fake" JDKs in maven's toolchains.xml which are not full-blown JDKs but rather only provide a number of jars in JDK_HOME/lib/*.jar which will be used as bootclasspath for compilation, you will now have to explicitly define this bootclasspath in toolchains.xml.

Packaging

  • plexus-archiver was updated to version 3.4 (bug 514119)
  • commons-compress was updated to version 1.15 (bug 514119)
