Next

• changed generatePom task to emit POM without any transitive dependencies, so jb's resolution is used, not Maven's.
• improved the dependencies task so its output is much nicer to look at.
• dependencies task output now shows local dependencies' transitive dependencies.
• dependencies task output now shows proper version conflicts that take into account the full dependency graph, including local dependencies.
• added verifyDependencies task which fails if the project has version conflicts, causing compilation to not even start.

0.13.0

• updated JBuild version to 0.12.0.

• fixed -p option so that working directory works in more scenarios.
• allow specifying which Test library version to use with jb create.
• several fixes to incremental builds.
• show extension task configuration in showJbConfiguration task output.
• warn if any configuration is not used by jb or any extensions.

0.12.0

• fixed handling of -J- javacArgs - must be passed to java when starting the JVM executor.
• use Java CDS (Class Data Sharing) to slightly improve Java commands performance.
• support for compiling Groovy projects.

• fixed several caching issues related to sub-projects.
• updated SPDX licenses.
• fixed JVM Executor: only start up one per build.
• fixed JVM Executor: ensure it's killed after the build completes.

0.6.0

• added showJbConfiguration task.
• improved POM creation task.
• added config name, description, url, licenses, developers, scm (used by Maven) to project configuration.
