JRuby 9.4.9.0 Released

by

The JRuby community is pleased to announce the release of JRuby 9.4.9.0.

JRuby 9.4.x targets Ruby 3.1 compatibility.

Thank you to our contributors this release, you help keep JRuby moving forward! @kares, @jpcamara, @jsvd

Ruby Compatibility

  • Various fixes for keyword arguments. #8344, #8344, #8382, #8389
  • Mutex has been fixed to check for thread interrupts (Thread#kill, Thread#raise) immediately after acquiring the lock. #8403, #8404

Standard Library

  • The fiddle library is now a default gem and can be upgraded independently of JRuby. #8385

Developer Experience

  • The core jar file of JRuby can be rebuilt more quickly by calling Maven with the -Dcore flag. #8326
  • Support for Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint (OpenJDK Project CRaC), which allows snapshotting a running JRuby process and quickly resuming it later. #8367

Java Integration

  • The “lazy” constants feature for classes imported from Java, introduced in JRuby 9.4.8.0, has been reverted due to spurious warnings. We’ll revisit it in a future release. #8349, #8368, #8399, #8400, #8401
  • Functions were added to allow flushing out thread-local and fiber-local storage for an entire JRuby runtime. #8369

Security

  • REXML was updated to 3.3.9 to get recent fixes and to address CVE-2024-49761, a ReDOS vulnerability. Only users parsing unsanitized XML with REXML are affected. #8396

Ruby 3.3.6 Released

by

Ruby 3.3.6 has been released.

This is a routine update that includes minor bug fixes.
It also stops warning missing default gem dependencies that will be bundled gems in Ruby 3.5.
For more details, please refer to the release notes on GitHub.

Release Schedule

As previously announced, we intend to release the latest stable Ruby version (currently Ruby 3.3) every 2 months following a .1 release.

We expect to release Ruby 3.3.7 on January 7th. If any significant changes arise that impact a large number of users, we may release a new version earlier than scheduled.

NetBSD: the portable, lightweight, and robust UNIX-like operating system

by
NetBSD is an open-source, Unix-like operating system known for its portability, lightweight design, and robustness across a wide array of hardware platforms. Initially released in 1993, NetBSD was one of the first open-source operating systems based on the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) lineage, alongside FreeBSD and OpenBSD. NetBSD’s development has been led by a collaborative community and is particularly recognized for its “clean” and well-documented codebase, a factor that has made it a popular choice among users interested in systems programming and cross-platform compatibility. ↫ André Machado I’m not really sure what to make of this article, since it mostly reads like an advertisement for NetBSD, but considering NetBSD is one of the lesser-talked about variants of an operating system family that already sadly plays second fiddle to the Linux behemoth, I don’t think giving it some additional attention is really hurting anybody. The article is still gives a solid overview of the history and strengths of NetBSD, which makes it a good introduction. I have personally never tried NetBSD, but it’s on my list of systems to try out on my PA-RISC workstation since from what I’ve heard it’s the only BSD which can possibly load up X11 on the Visualize FX10pro graphics card it has (OpenBSD can only boot to a console on this GPU). While I could probably coax some cobbled-together Linux installation into booting X11 on it, where’s the fun in that? Do any of you lovely readers use NetBSD for anything? FreeBSD and even OpenBSD are quite well represented as general purpose operating systems in the kinds of circles we all frequent, but I rarely hear about people using NetBSD other than explicitly because it supports some outdated, arcane architecture in 2024.
