Blaze-Persistence 1.6.7 Release

Blaze-Persistence version 1.6.7 was just released

By Christian Beikov on 04 August 2022

We are happy to announce the seventh bug fix release of the 1.6 series.

Hibernate 6 support

The long awaited Hibernate 6 integration is finally finished. It took longer than anticipated for various reasons. Hibernate 6 changed quite a lot under the hood, and since Blaze-Persistence integrates so deeply with it, it ran into a lot of the early regressions which first had to be fixed in Hibernate 6.

With Hibernate 6.1.1.Final being released, we were finally able to also release the Hibernate 6 integration, as that version has all the fixes and SPIs needed for Blaze-Persistence to work again.

New Spring Data integrations

After a few reports about boot errors with the Spring Data integrations for 2.5 and 2.6, saying that some methods weren’t implemented, after updating to a newer Spring Data bugfix version, we decided to create dedicated integration modules for every Spring Data version and try to keep up to date with the latest bug fix versions from now on, to avoid these issues in the future.

In addition to that, we also added an integration for Spring Data 2.7.

If you have been using the Spring Data 2.4 integration previously on Spring Data 2.5, 2.6 or 2.7, please switch to the new integration modules for the respective versions.

New Java version support

The previous version already worked with Java 16 and 17, but now we also added proper continuous integration matrix entries for Java 16, 17, 18 and 19-EA to make sure everything still works fine with the latest JDKs.

Various bug fixes

Apart from the new integrations, this release comes with quite a few bug fixes in the QueryDSL integration, as well as one parsing issue where the multiplication operator has higher precedence than the division operator. We highly advise updating to this latest version to avoid running into this nasty parser bug.

Take a look into the changelog for a full list of changes and improvements.

Enjoy the release and stay tuned for the next one!
