ClojureCLR v1.10 Release Notes

  • 🚀 The 1.10 release of ClojureCLR corresponds to the 1.10.2 version of Clojure(JVM). 🛠 We have made all the changes, bug fixes, etc., listed below that are relevant to ClojureCLR.

    Platform

    ⚡️ The most significant change in 1.10 is updating support to the more recent .Net platforms.
    🚀 In this release, we have dropped support for .Net 3.5. Supported platforms are:

    • .Net Framework 4.6.1 (and later)
    • .Net Core 3.1
    • .Net 5.0

    Libraries are written toArray

    • .Net Standard 2.0
    • .Net Standard 2.1

    🚀 Because of the limititions of System.Reflection.Emit, in particular, AssemblyBuilder.Save() not being implemented, there is no compilation of Clojure source (.clj) to assemblies (.dll). This means we cannot AOT-compile the Clojure core code, resulting in lengthier startup initialization. (We hope to fix that in a future release.) Features that rely on AOT-compilation, gen-class in particular, will not function. Other than that, the effect is minimal. CLJ code that is loaded will be compiled to IL and JITted to machine code as always.
