• v3.0.1 Changes

  December 06, 2020

  ⚡️ 1. Updated tests to use the latest versions of AdoptOpenJDK 8, 11, and 15. 🏁 2. Changed DLL loading on Windows to search in the JRE bin and server directories.

  • This should make packr more robust to Windows runtime DLL changes. 🛠 3. Fixed logging levels in ArchiveUtils
  • There was trace output logging at error level.

• v3.0.0 Changes

  October 08, 2020

  🔨 1. Refactored code to fit better into libGdx/packr parent repository. 🛠 2. Fixed an issue where extracting an archive with duplicate entries would fail. 📦 3. The packr-all Jar is available from GitHub packages https://github.com/libgdx/packr/packages.

  1. The output directory specified by --output must be an empty directory, or a path that does not exist.
     • Packr will no longer delete the output directory and then populate it.
  2. Packr will ensure that jspawnhelper has execute permissions in the bundled JRE.
     • This resolves an issue on macOS where Runtime.exec and Process.start calls would fail with java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "java": error=2, No such file or directory.
     • Reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53113127/java-runtime-exec-fails-to-run/55091040 ⚡️ 6. Updated ArchiveUtils to support POSIX permissions and symbolic links.
     • This resolves an issue with repackaged JREs losing execute permissions.
  3. Alternative Maven repositories until oss.sonatype.org (Maven central) publishing is possible.

• v2.7.0 Changes

  September 09, 2020

  🚀 1. Fixed a Gradle script error where it was bundling the release builds with debug info on Linux and macOS.

  • For Linux this reduces the executable size from ~722K to ~95K. 🐧 2. Compile with -no-pie on Linux to work around a Nautilus bug.

  • https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34519521/why-does-gcc-create-a-shared-object-instead-of-an-executable-binary-according-to?noredirect=1&lq=1 🏁 3. Added compile flags /Os, /Gw, /Gy on Windows.
  • Combined with the new linker flags, this reduced the executable size. 🏁 4. Added /opt:icf, /opt:ref linker flags on Windows.
  • Combined with the new compiler flags, this reduced the executable size. ⚡️ 5. Updated Gradle wrapper to version 6.5.1.
