Hibernate ORM 5.6.0.Beta2 was released today.
Today OpenJDK 17 was released, and we’re very excited about it! Congratulations to Mark Reinhold and all fantastic OpenJDK contributors for the very promising milestone.
If you are using any Hibernate libraries in your project, we made sure that this is no excuse holding you back from upgrading: all our maintained branches have been regularly tested with early releases of OpenJDK 17, any patches we needed to apply have long been included in maintenance releases.
By now our projects are already preparing for OpenJDK 18 - technically for our QA, Java 17 is old news: I hope that’s reassuring for you all.
We just released Hibernate ORM 5.6.0.Beta1; the 5.6.x series will be rather light on features as all stronger improvements are now reserved for versions 6+, but we’re starting a cleanup so to help you get prepared with the migration to six.
This is also a strategy to allow us to be more conservative with the patches we apply to 5.5 series, which we will maintain for longer like we do already with 5.3 and 5.4 but somewhat delaying backports of fixes to these branches, to give us all that extra level of confidence.
Hibernate ORM 5.5.5.Final was released today.
It’s our most recent stable version, with only minimal changes to address issues identified in the previous release.
This is also our "lightest" release ever, in terms of memory consumption. But this is the result of many years of work, not any specific change in this particular build, so I’ll follow up with a dedicated analysis as we collect more data.
While we meant to release 5.5.1.Final, I made a mistake - so this version number will be skipped.
Happy now to announce a successful release of Hibernate ORM 5.5.2.Final! It is already available for download from your favourite Maven Central mirror.
Today we released yet another maintenance release: Hibernate ORM 5.4.29.Final is now available for download from your favourite Maven Central mirror.
There’s nothing particularly exciting beyond the usual small bugfixes - I hope you’ll agree that this is a good thing.
This exciting new project was announced by Gavin King just a month ago; if you’ve missed it please check Introducing Hibernate Reactive.
Happy new year to all!
During the break we released two versions of Hibernate ORM: both 5.4.26.Final and 5.4.27.Final, and couldn’t announce them properly.
So now feel free to ignore the already out of date .26 and jump to .27.
A new version of Hibernate ORM is available today: 5.4.24.Final, we recommend upgrading your applications.
