The JRuby community is pleased to announce the release of JRuby 9.0.0.0-pre=
2
Homepage: http://www.jruby.org/
Download: http://www.jruby.org/download
JRuby 9000 is the new version of JRuby, representing years of effort and
large-scale reboots of several JRuby subsystems.
Major features of JRuby 9000:
Ruby 2.2 compatibility, minus features listed below
A new optimizing runtime based on a traditional compiler design
New POSIX-friendly IO and Process
Fully ported encoding/transcoding logic from MRI
This is our second preview release, and we are getting much closer to
reaching our first .0 release. We are releasing this update to get user
feedback on Ruby 2.2 functionality and overall stability.
We hope all Ruby users will try out this release and report issues on 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.
Ruby 2.2 features yet to be implemented:
- Refinements (partially finished) #1062
- Kernel#spawn close-on-exec support
- ObjectSpace::WeakMap#each and Enumerable inclusion
- Thread#handle_interrupt is not yet fully functional
Notable changes since pre1:
- Startup time has improved but is a tiny bit slower than 1.7.x.
- Memory usage has improved but still a ways to go.
- Straight-line performance has improved since pre1
- Windows support improved, but still needs further work and testing
- Many keyword arguments problems fixed
- 88 issues fixed for 9.0.0.0.pre2
The new runtime gathers more information about Ruby code and performs more
analysis and optimization than our old runtime. There=E2=80=99s great poten=
tial
here to bring Ruby performance to native Java or C, but we are just
starting the optimization phase of that work. We will do our best to get
startup time, memory use, and performance on par with 1.7.x (or better)
before the final release of JRuby 9000.
Truffle
JRuby 9000 includes an in-development version of support for the Truffle
language implementation framework and Graal VM from Oracle Labs. In future
releases, Truffle will provide an extremely high performance and compatible
backend for JRuby. The Truffle backend supports all Ruby language features,
but so far only some of the core and standard libraries. It has no support
for RubyGems or Rails, does not work on Windows, and is not ready to be
tested with applications at this stage. More information on Truffle and
Graal can be found in the JRuby Wiki.
