The JRuby community is pleased to announce the release of JRuby 1.1.5! Homepage: [http://www.jruby.org/](http://www.jruby.org/) Download: [http://dist.codehaus.org/jruby/](http://dist.codehaus.org/jruby/) JRuby 1.1.5 is the fifth point release of JRuby 1.1. The fixes in this release are primarily obvious compatibility problems and performance enhancements. Our goal is to put out point releases more frequently for the next several months (about 3-4 weeks a release). We want a more rapid release cycle to better address issues brought up by users of JRuby. Highlights: - Per-class method caching (improves **send** , respond\_to?, and defined?) - Constant cache dramatically improves constant lookup - Reduced memory usage for compiled execution - Several Java Integration regressions fixed - Rubygems 1.3.1 and Rspec 1.1.11 upgrades - Updated ffi (Foreign Function Interface) support - More Ruby 1.9 mode support - 113 bugs fixed since 1.1.4 JRUBY-194 handling protected methods in Java classes not working properly JRUBY-1000 Illegal attempt to subclass a final Java class should fail when the subclass is defined JRUBY-1263 JRuby is trying to parse .so files.

FYI, the updated FFI support is feature-equivalent to the just-released Ruby FFI. The primary difference from 1.1.4 is callback support. ---

Me and some others had problems to build the jruby-complete.jar for jruby 1.1.4 from source lately. I posted to jruby user list but got no feedback that fixed the build problem. Finally a link for a jruby-complete.jar in a maven repository was posted. Where do i get the jruby-complete.jar for 1.1.5 ? Regards, Gilbert ---
