Added

Changed

[0.7.0] - 2017-08-31

Added

• Plugin option to dump the generated Java to the console or a file.
• Partial support for inner classes. Antiquoted variables and quasiquotation results can refer to inner classes now.

Changed

• Use a compiler plugin to build the bytecode table and to generate Java code. We no longer need static pointers to find the bytecode at runtime, and we can check at build-time that values are marshaled between matching types in Java and Haskell when using antiquated variables or the result of quasiquotations. Also, now java quasiquotes work inside Template Haskell brackets ([| ... |]).
• Use only the lexer in language-java. This defers most parsing errors to the javac compiler which produces better error messages and might support newer syntactic constructs like anonymous functions.
• Java checked exceptions are now allowed in java quasiquotes.

Fixed

• Gradle hooks now produce a correct build-time classpath.

[0.6.5] - 2017-04-13

Added

• Exposed loadJavaWrappers.

[0.6.4] - 2017-04-09

Fixed

• Fixed handling of repeated antiquotation variables, which in some cases was causing a compilation error.

[0.6.3] - 2017-03-12

Fixed

• Setting the CLASSPATH using Gradle is now fully supported. It was previously unusable due to a bug (see #42).

[0.6.2] - 2017-02-21

• Avoid producing warnings about unused inlinejava_bytecode0 bindings.
• Support type synonyms in variable antiquotation.
• Update lower bounds of jni to 0.3 and jvm to 0.2.

[0.6.1] - 2016-12-27

• Support passing array objects as arguments / return values.
• More robust mangling of inline class name.

[0.6.0] - 2016-12-13

Added

• Can set a custom CLASSPATH in Setup.hs from Gradle build configurations to use when compiling inline expressions.
• GHC 8 compatibility
• Support inline expressions that compile to multiple .class files (e.g for anonymous classes and anonymous function literals).

Changed

• The return type of inline expressions no longer needs Reify/Reflect instances.

Fixed

• Fix antiquotation: in [java| $obj.foo() |], obj is now recognized as an antiquotation variable.
• Passing multiple options to the JVM using withJVM.

[0.5.0] - 2016-12-13

Added

• First release with support for inline Java expressions.

Changed

• Split lower-level and mid-level bindings into separate packages: jni and jvm.
