Re: [m2e-users] m2e 1.6.2 RC1 and m2e 1.7.0 M1 are available

[Fred Bricon <fbricon@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I re-spun the staged 1.6.2 and 1.7.0 RCs in order to include a fix for [1].

New builds are now 1.6.2.20150819-1555 and 1.7.0.20150819-1552.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello World,

m2e 1.6.2 (1.6.2.20150818-2354) RC1 for Mars has been released. It notably fixes a regression introduced in 1.6.1 that broke the groovy configurator. See the changelog here [1]. It can be installed from [2]. 3rd party configurator providers are *strongly* encouraged to check 1.6.2 works for them.

Unless new blocking issues are found for m2e 1.6.2.20150818-2354, it will most likely be released as-is next week.

m2e 1.7.0 (1.7.0.20150818-2353) M1 for Neon includes all the fixes from 1.6.2 plus initial Java 9 support [3]. It can be installed from [4].

Java 9 beta support for Eclipse must be installed from the Marketplace[5].

Please note m2e 1.7.0 now requires JDK 8 minimum to run. 

Enjoy,

Fred.
