I'm pleased to announce the release of the java-buildpack, version 4.7. This release focuses on Java 9 and Spring Boot 2 compatibility.

  • 🎉 Java 9 Compatibility 🎉
    Java 9 JREs are available, and the buildpack's main code has been updated to work with Java 9 command lines. It is not only possible, but quite likely that components contributed by the buildpack (e.g. Tomcat) are not ready for Java 9. If you see issues running your applications with Java 9, especially if those issues are with the buildpack and not external dependencies, please open an issue.
  • 🎊 Spring Boot 2 Compatibility 🎊
    All dependencies that work with Spring Boot applications have been updated to handle both Spring Boot 1 and Spring Boot 2. This is only tested against the Spring Boot 2 snapshots and may need more work before the final release.
  • Disable JVM DNS caching if BOSH DNS is available
  • Improved documentation for heap dump generation (via Johannes Tuchscherer)
  • JRebel documentation and compatibility improvements (via Madis Pärn)
  • Shell command no longer stalls on large output (via Mike Youngstrom)
  • Geode Session Caching Improvements (via Rebecca Chin and E Casey)
  • Updated JAVA_OPTS documentation (via Mike Youngstrom)

For a more detailed look at the changes in 4.7, please take a look at the commit log. The packaged version of the buildpack, suitable for use with create-buildpack and update-buildpack, can be found attached to this release.
