JRuby 9.2.10.0 Released
Tuesday, February 18 2020
The JRuby community is pleased to announce the release of JRuby 9.2.10.0
- Homepage: http://www.jruby.org/
- Download: http://www.jruby.org/download
JRuby 9.2.x is compatible with Ruby 2.5.x and stays in sync with C Ruby. As always there is a mix of miscellaneous fixes so be sure to read the issue list below. All users are encouraged to upgrade.
Ruby Core
- Kernel#send and BasicObject#__send__ will now honor refinements used in the surrounding scopes. (#5945, #6045)
- Kernel#eval will now honor refinements used in a given binding. (#6017)
- Process#spawn now correctly processes environment variables for the child process. (#3428, #5907)
Ruby Standard Library
- RubyGems has been updated to version 3.0.6. (#5995, #5996)
- The jruby-openssl library has been updated to 0.10.4. This release improves support for newer forms of ciphers and cryptographic keys and reduces the number of Java module warnings displayed. (#6077)
- The compatibility of the fiddle library has been improved. (#5955, #5956, #5960)
Java Support
- Java methods looked up one-at-a-time using
java_method and friends now honor Java modules. This fixes some
illegal access errors introduced in JRuby 9.2.9.0. (#5894, #5969, #6043, #6069, #6072)
- More illegal access warnings have been cleaned up in JRuby and the jruby-openssl extension.
Native FFI Improvements
- The native subsystem has been rebuilt on MacOS to avoid security warnings due to the old toolchain originally used to build it. (#6044, #6074)
- Native constants have been updated for Windows to better support the Ruby socket API. (#5656, #6070, #6071)
Performance Improvements
- Several improvements to the method invocation pipeline and JVM bytecode output to improve JIT optimizations. (#5958, #5959, #5978, #5992, #6005)
- Several core methods used by Rails and the internal handling of exception backtraces have been optimized. (#5952, #5961, #5965, #5972, #6014, #6015, #6031, #6067)
JRuby Launcher
- Java options dotfiles accidentally omitted in the JRuby 9.2.9.0 release have been restored in the bin directory.
- The bash-based launcher script has been cleaned up and optimized for cross-platform compatibility. (#5977, #6007, #6016)
