[ANNOUNCEMENT] Apache Commons JCI 1.1 released

[Emmanuel Bourg <eb...@apache.org>]

The Apache Commons Team is pleased to announce the release of Apache
Commons JCI 1.1.

JCI is a java compiler interface. It can be used to either compile java
(or any other language that can be compiled to java classes like e.g.
groovy or javascript) to Java.

Changes in this version:

o Updated the API to use generics
o JaninoJavaCompiler is now compatible with Janino 2.6 (JCI-69)
o EclipseJavaCompiler is now compatible with the Eclipse JDT compiler 4.2.2
o Dropped the javac compiler since it only worked with Java 5 (JCI-73)
o Improved the thread safety of FilesystemAlterationMonitor (JCI-74)
o The FilesystemAlterationMonitor thread is now a daemon thread (JCI-65)
o The Eclipse compiler now supports source/target 1.7

Fixed bugs:

o Fixed a NPE in FilesystemAlterationMonitor when the directory is not
readable (JCI-68)
o Compiling classes with cross imports using Janino no longer causes a
stack overflow (JCI-53)
o FilesystemAlterationMonitor no longer throws a NPE when calling stop()
before start() (JCI-62)
o EclipseJavaCompiler properly closes the InputStreams (JCI-58)
o Eclipse compiler settings are no longer ignored (JCI-50, JCI-51)
o Fixed an issue preventing the Eclipse compiler from loading resources
from the ResourceStore (JCI-56)
