Subject: [Pljava-dev] PL/Java 1.5.0 announced; security note.
Date: Tue, 17 May 2016 20:11:23 -0400
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)
[The pljava-dev list was out of order on 29 March when this announcement
was made, so for anyone who may have missed it:]
PL/Java brings functions, triggers, and types in Java. 1.5.0 supports
latest PostgreSQL and Java versions with a range of improvements and
fixes.
Project site: http://tada.github.io/pljava/
Release notes: http://tada.github.io/pljava/releasenotes.html
Security note:
Several security issues are addressed in PL/Java 1.5.0, as described in
the release notes, so sites running earlier versions are encouraged to
update. The release notes also describe practical mitigations to
reduce risk until an update can be completed.
Platforms:
PL/Java 1.5.0 works with Java 8, 7, or 6 and all 9.x PostgreSQL versions
as well as 8.4. To support projects based on older PostgreSQL forks,
PL/Java 1.5.0 is also intended to build with 8.3 and 8.2, but has not
been tested on those versions.
PL/Java 1.5.0 resolves reported build issues on several platforms, and
new sections of the build documentation specifically cover Mac OS X,
Solaris, Ubuntu, and Windows (using Visual Studio or MinGW-64).
FreeBSD 10.2 or later is expected to work but has not been tested.
Changes:
PL/Java 1.5.0 brings more complete, usable, and documented
capability for Java-implemented user-defined base types, composite
types, and mirrors of existing PostgreSQL types, an annotation-driven
SQL generator reducing the effort of writing deployment SQL by hand,
and many smaller improvements and fixes detailed in the release notes.
The supplied examples cover many of these features.
Availability:
PL/Java 1.5.0 is available from GitHub as a source release, which
builds quickly using Maven:
Release page: https://github.com/tada/pljava/releases/tag/V1_5_0
This wiki page will add links to prebuilt packages that become
available: https://github.com/tada/pljava/wiki/Prebuilt-packages
Many thanks to all the individuals and organizations listed in
the release notes under Credits.
