Apache Release 2.0.0

This is a major release and includes the following:

• Significant refactoring in PR #129 that refines the public API and restricts access to the package internals using the JPMS in Java9+.
• PR #131 maintains existing support for Java 8 and adds support for Java 9 up to Java 13. In Java9+, the library can now be declared as a JPMS module dependency in user applications.
• Includes changes to how the RequestMemoryServer is managed in #136, #138 and #139
• Improved documentation for developers and the end user including usage in Java9+ applications.

This release is restricted to compile and run on Java 8 and 11. Based on other users experiences, it will run (but not compile) on Java 17 as long as one doesn't attempt to allocate off-heap memory using the allocateDirect(...) call. But we don't officially support this limited configuration.

Apache Release 1.3.0

This is the first release of Memory as a Top Level Project.

• This includes PR #122 submitted by Jihoon Son as well as follow-on PR #123, which extended the improvements identified in PR #122, to other areas. This is a significant speed improvement.
• Removed references to "incubator" as a result of the TLP move.
• Other minor code cleanup.

Apache Release 1.2.0-incubating

Removes a check that required the runtime JDK to be JDK-8. This does not change the requirement that JDK-8 is required for full runtime operation. However in environments that do not use the advanced off-heap (direct) capabilities of Memory this module may still work in JDK versions later than JDK-8. However, there is no guarantee of this as this code has not been fully refactored and tested to operate in these later versions. Caveat Emptor.

This release was created for the convenience of some major users that need to do testing in versions later than JDK-8, and do not use the advanced features of Memory.

There are no other significant changes in this version compared to the previous 1.1.0-incubating release.

1.2.0-incubating-RC1

Release Candidate

Apache Release 1.1.0-incubating

This release came from RC2, which fixed some problems in the structure of the POM file of
RC1. There are no other changes.

1.1.0-incubating-RC1

This candidate was not released. There were some structural problems in the POM file.

Apache Release 1.0.0-incubating

This is the first release as Apache DataSketches-memory (incubating). This is a work-in-progress as it doesn't have all the licensing details quite right. But the code is good and passes all the tests. There are no significant code changes from the previous release. There will be another release coming with some speed improvements. So we suggest that you wait for the next release.

memory-0.12.2

Added new functionality.

XxHash is now not only available from Memory, it also is directly available for hashing primitive arrays. See class XxHash64.
