What’s New

  • Zing 20.08.0.0 incorporates additional non-security changes associated with the July Patch Set Updates (PSU) 2020 OpenJDK 7u272, OpenJDK 8u265, and OpenJDK 11.0.8 release contents.

  • NONEwithDSAinP1363Format is included in signature algorithms enabled in Zing 20.08.0.0 by default. NONEwithDSAinP1363Format is scheduled for removal in the following release of the Zing Virtual Machine. Since the algorithm is not supported in other JDK 8 virtual machines, it is recommended to migrate to Digital Signature Algorithms with ASN.1 encoded signature bytes.

  • Zing 20.08.0.0 introduces multiple optimizations that significantly increase performance on a set of Java Stream API scenarios.

  • Zing 20.08.0.0 introduces a new version string format that includes a matching OpenJDK release number.

  • Version 1 of the GC Log Analyser has reached its end-of-life and is removed from Zing 20.08.0.0. Version 2 of the GC Log Analyzer is available for download at https://cdn.azul.com/gcla/GCLogAnalyzer2.jar.
