JRuby 1.7.2 is our second update release since JRuby 1.7.0. The
primary goal of 1.7 point releases is to fill out any missing
compatibility issues with Ruby 1.9.3. The feedback we have gotten
(along with patches) has ended up being a substantial release.
Changes of note:
- Reworked openssl ext to allow updating from gem
- Improved performance of constants and global variables
- Improved performance of Java arrays accessed from Ruby
- Many miscellaneous 1.9 compatibility fixes
- 32 issues fixed for 1.7.2
