I've release a 2.0.0.pre1 version of Warbler that is compatible with JRuby
9.0.0.0.pre2, but is not compatible (in theory) with anything earlier.
https://rubygems.org/gems/warbler/versions/2.0.0.pre1

The plan for Warbler 2.x is essentially the same as JRuby 9k: only
supporting Ruby 2.2 onwards and some "modern" versions of Rails and other
frameworks (we'll figure out the specifics as time goes on). Development
will be done on the 2.x-dev branch:
https://github.com/jruby/warbler/tree/2.x-dev

The Warbler 1.x version line *will continue to be supported* for as long as
JRuby 1.7.x is supported. However, it will not support JRuby 9k. It will
also, probably, not support "modern" versions of Rails and such (see
above). Development will continue on the master branch until 2.0.0 is
released.

The 2.0.0.pre1 release is, otherwise, not that exciting. I mainly updated
it to keep parity with 1.4.7 while running on JRuby 9k. Here's a summary of
things:

* Removed all references to Merb (yup, you read that right)
* Removed support for Rails 2.x
* Removed support for Ruby 1.8 (yes, it's still there), 1.9, 2.0
* Removed some convoluted logic for loading bouncy castle jars

Here are some things I'm considering doing before a 2.0.0 release:

* Remove support for Rails 3.x (continue support on the Warbler 1.4.x line)
* Remove Winstone? (make way for Tomcat?)
* Upgrade all tests to use modern versions of frameworks and Gems.
* Add first-class support for cool stuff from Servlet 3.1 via jruby-rack

Here are some example apps -- all of them ready to run on Heroku ;)

Dirt Simple Rack Example:

Sinatra (using Servlet 3.1 async) Example:
https://github.com/jkutner/warbler-sinatra-example

Rails 4.1 Example:
https://github.com/jkutner/warbler-rails-example

Please give this a try, and let me know if you find any problems.

I'd also love to hear suggestions for improvements, new features, or other
things we should be supporting.

Cheers,

Joe Kutner
