JRuby 9000 is the newest major version of JRuby, representing years of
effort and large-scale reboots of several JRuby subsystems. It is expected
to be compatible with Ruby 2.x and stay in sync with C Ruby. JRuby 9.1.1.0
is our latest release…
Major features of JRuby 9000:
- Ruby 2.x compatibility
- A new optimizing runtime based on a traditional compiler design
- New POSIX-friendly IO and Process
- Fully ported encoding/transcoding logic from MRI
If you do find issues then report them on using our issue tracker at
http://bugs.jruby.org. We also encourage users to join our IRC channel
(#jruby on Freenode) and mailing lists. You may also follow @jruby on
Twitter for updates.
Notable updates since 9.1.0.0
- 18 issues fixed for 9.1.1.0
Truffle
JRuby 9000 includes an preliminary version of support for the Truffle
language implementation framework and Graal JIT compiler from Oracle Labs.
In future releases, Truffle will provide an extremely high performance and
compatible backend for JRuby. The Truffle backend supports almost all Ruby
language features and the majority of the core library, and is able to run
simple gems and web frameworks such as Sinatra. It has no support for
RubyGems, Rails or any database drivers, and does not work on Windows.
However we are now interested in people submitting issues for small gems
with minimal dependencies who see issues running on JRuby+Truffle
Graal has been integrated into Java 9 early access builds, and can be used
today as part of the GraalVM, which is currently the recommended way to run
JRuby+Truffle.
More information on Truffle and Graal can be found in the JRuby Wiki.
