Version 1.7.0
=============
June 3, 2020

<https://abcl.org/svn/tags/1.7.0/>
<https://github.com/armedbear/abcl/commit/91f7561840ee5ded6f35922119ed7dc8442747cd>
<https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/abcl/abcl/-/commit/799cfb697d20652e06ffa760f07288823424cf2f>

The implementation now runs on the openjdk6, openjdk7, openjdk8,
openjdk11, openjdk13, and openjdk14 JVM runtimes.

Enhancements
------------

* [r15305][r15306][r15307] The :NIO symbol is now present in
  CL:*FEATURES*, denoting the use of java.nio.ByteBuffer et. al. in
  the implementation of arrays specialized on commonly used unsigned
  byte-types.  CL:MAKE-ARRAY now has the :NIO-BUFFER and :NIO-DIRECT
  keyword arguments useful in the construction of such arrays.

* [r15280][r15283] The default implementation for CL:DISASSEMBLE has
  been switched from jad to javap.  The SYS:CHOOSE-ASSEMBLER interface
  is now able to switch between the jad, javap, fernflower, Procyon,
  and CFR backends provided as loaded ASDF definitions contained in
  the ABCL-INTROSPECT contrib.

* [r15268] ABCL-BUILD:DIRECTORY-HASHES outputs the SHA256 hashes of files in
  a directory.

* [r15282] The ABCL-INTROSPECT contrib now adds the EXT:WRITE-CLASS method
  to write the bytecode representation of a Java class to disk.

* [r15293] The Dockerfile has been updated to use openjdk11

Fixes
-----

* [r15292] Fixed all known outstanding problems with DECODE-FLOAT for
  values less than normalized floats.

* [r15287] Attempts to fill specialized 32-bit arrays with elements
   greater than 2^32-1 now properly signals a type error.

* [r15267] ABCL-BUILD:ANT/CALL no longer signals an error on failure instead
  reporting associated error messages.

* [r15281] Autoconfiguration for builds on supported platforms extended.

* [r15290] The invocation of CL-BENCH now utilizes its ASDF definition.

* [r15294][r15298] The contents of the <file:ci/> directory are now
  included in the source release, and have had all mention of
  TRAVIS_BUILD_DIR removed decoupling their use from the presence of
  Travis.

Tests
-----

* [r15277] (pdietz) Additional tests for compiler failures.

* [r15278][r15279] (phoe) Added tests for unbound slots DIVISION-BY-ZERO has
  ARITHMETIC-ERROR-OPERANDS.

* [r15284][r15285][r15288] The CI now tests the ability to use OpenSSL via
  CL+SSL.

* [r15289] The CI now tests the version CFFI with
  CFFI-SYS:MAKE-SHAREABLE-BYTE-VECTOR implemented.

* [r15291] The CI now tests IRONCLAD.
