JRuby 1.0.1 released along with plan for 1.1

Aug 25th, 2007 by Robert Dempsey - Tags:

The JRuby team released version 1.0.1 yesterday along with the plan for version 1.1, which is to be released before RubyConf in early November.

The 1.0.1 maintenance release:

  • Resolves 28 issues
  • Fixes multipart processing
  • Fixes sockets that affected some of the net/* libraries
  • Fixes network timeouts when using large packets

Per a message from Charles Nutter, the 1.1 plan includes:

  • Compiler complete
  • AOT compilation working with jrubyc
  • stdlib all precompiled
  • gem install precompilation
  • virtual filesystem-inside-JVM (maybe) or hacked rubygems that can run out of an archive
  • performance improvement to be quantified…java integration, execution, memory reduction
  • yarv bytecode execution and compilation (maybe)
  • AST sharing as an option (sharing across runtimes)…need to explore AOT compilation and its (positive?) effect on memory too
  • real threading brutalization, testably multithread-safe core classes (maybe, needs heavy testing on many-core systems)
  • Java API rubification, perhaps with require ‘javax.swing’ and so on

Grab the release and start deploying Rails apps in your Java environment.
