API differences in Hibernate ORM 5.1 vs 5.3
by Gail Badner
Hi,
There were lots of differences in the compatibility report, so as a first
step, I've excluded packages/classes that I considered SPI, internal, or
"grey area". This reduced the the differences to a more manageable amount.
You can see a summary of the incompatibilities along with suggested
mitigation at [1].
The report is attached to [1], along with a zip with instructions for
running the report.
I believe there are some "false positives" in the report, and I have
documented them in the section, "False Positives?".
Feel free to comment on the article.
Thanks,
Gail

IP banned from forum
by Gunnar Morling
Hi,
Is anyone banning users from the forum? I am getting "A ban has been
issued on your IP address."
I don't think banning by IP is a good strategy as many users will have
dynamic IPs from their hoster's shared pool, so it's a random game to
hit an IP previously banned due to some other user's spam.
Thanks,

New CI machine preview
by Sanne Grinovero
You're all welcome to play with http://54.225.162.168/
however please keep these in mind:
- it's not the final machine: don't put too much effort in creating
nice build scripts as we'll reset it to clean state soon. We *might*
be able to store jobs defined so far, but we might choose not to.
- domain name should be coming: ci.hibernate.org ..not sure when, got
no replies so far from.
- authentication: just click on login, it will use OAuth2 to request
your identity via your GitHub account. Permissions to create new jobs,
edit existing jobs, run a build manually depend on your github account
be part of the Hibernate organization (or not, in which case you have
read only status)
At this stage I'd like to get a feeling if the hardware is powerful
enough, and also we need to select which other plugins we want to use,
I'm looking especially to:
- static analysis reports
- pull requests integration
both are relatively undefined, we can of course start simple and
improve later.. just checking this fits basic needs now.

JDK 19 first Release Candidates!
by David Delabassee
Greetings!
I hope you had a chance to take some time off. On our side, and despite
the summer vacation, everything is on track for the Java 19 GA release
on September 20th with JDK 19 now in the Release Candidate Phase [1]. If
you haven't done so yet, it is time to start testing your project(s)
using JDK 20 Early-Access builds. Speaking of Early-Access builds, there
is now a new set of EA builds, i.e., the jextract EA builds. jextract is
a tool developed under the Project Panama umbrella whose goal is to
mechanically generates Java bindings from native library headers. If you
are using the Foreign Function & Memory API (Preview Feature in JDK 19),
make sure to check jextract too (see the jextract section below).

## Heads-up - New system properties for `System.out` and `System.err` in
JDK 19
Two new system properties, `stdout.encoding` and `stderr.encoding`, have
been introduced. The value of these system properties is the encoding
used by the standard output (`System.out`) and standard error
(`System.err`) streams. The default values of these system properties
depend on the platform. The values take on the value of the
`native.encoding` property when the platform does not provide streams
for the console. The properties can be overridden on the launcher's
command line option, with `-D`, to set them to UTF-8 where required. For
more details see https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8283620
## Heads-up - SSLSocketImpl finalizer implementation removed in JDK 19
The finalizer implementation in SSLSocket has been removed, with the
underlying native resource releases now done by the Socket
implementation. With this update, the TLS close_notify messages will no
longer be emitted if SSLSocket is not explicitly closed. Not closing
Sockets properly is an error condition that should be avoided.
Applications should always close sockets and not rely on garbage
collection. For more details see https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8212136
## Heads-up - New providerPath jarsigner option in JDK 19
A new `-providerPath` option has been added to the jarsigner. This
option is used to specify the class path of an alternate keystore
implementation, it can be used together with the -providerClass option.
For more details see https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8281175
## JDK 19 Release Candidate builds
JDK 19 first Release Candidates (builds 36) are now available [2], and

## Jextract Early-Access Builds
Early Access Builds 19-jextract+2-3 (2022/7/19) are now available [6].
These open-source builds are provided under the GNU General Public
License, version 2, with the Classpath Exception.
These builds are from the OpenJDK jextract project [7] which is part of
Code Tools [8]. jextract is a tool developed under the Panama umbrealla
whose goal is to mechanically generate Java bindings from native library
headers. These EA builds are intended for advanced users, and are
provided as a convenience so that they don't need to build it from the
sources. Additional notes on builds, documentation and known issues are
available at [6].
Please subscribe to the jextract mailing list [9] to share feedback.
