@AllowNulls and @SkipNulls
BYOA annotations supported for Collections and Maps when@Style(jdkOnly = true)
@JsonDeserialize(builder = ImmutableVal.Builder.class)

- If
Style.forceJacksonIgnoreFields = true
, generate@JsonIgnore

- Disable automatic Jackson integration via

- Things to be aware of
- Generated naming changed when inferred attribute name clashes with keyword. Previously for
isDefault
accessor, corresponding initializersetIsDefault
would be generated for"set*"
pattern. Now itsetDefault
will be the name of generated method. JSON namedefault
would be also derived. org.immutables:trees
module is renamed from the oldcases
module- While still experimental, encodings are taking more shape now.
@Encoding.Init

Bugfix release along with other 2.0.X. Issues
Many thanks to all contributors who helped to make it happen. Thanks to the community for making feature requests, bug reports, questions and suggestions.
Note versions 1.1.x are still supported, there's no rush to switch to 2.0 if you are not ready.
- Thanks to @augustotravillio for implementing JDK-only code generation. Useful on Android or when Guava is not available.
- Thanks to @ivysharev for a lot more precise imports post-processor.
- Support for java 8, including new
Optional*
classes, default methods. But type annotation support is rudimentary (works only in some cases). Java 7 is still required for compilation Multiset
,Multimap
,SetMultimap
,ListMultimap
are now supported.- Full-featured Gson support with generated
TypeAdapter
s which use no reflection during serialization/deserialization. - Builder now can be generated as "strict" (Style#strictBuilder). Strict builders prevents initialization errors: addition only collection initializer and regular initializers could be called only once.
- Now, there's no required dependencies, plain JDK will suffice. Guava still has first class support.
- Processor now enjoy improved repackaging (using forked and patched
maven-shade-plugin
) - Added
@Builder.Switch
annotation - Numerous API and behavior refinements, resulting in lot less WTF.
- Main annotation and processor artifact changed to be
org.immutables:value
. There's no confusingvalue-standalone
or whatsoever. common
artifact was removed, all compile and runtime dependencies have been modularized. While annotation processor itself is pretty monolithic, now compile and optional runtime dependencies are externalized to dedicated artifacts. Some notable modules:gson
Gson support modulemongo
MongoDB support modulebuilder
Module with annotations for generating builder from static factory methodsordinal
Module to generate more exotic enum-like values and efficiently handle them, etc
- JSON infrastructure underwent overhaul. See guide at http://immutables.org/json.html
- JAX-RS support switched to Gson, for Jackson integration there's no need to integrate anything, its own provider will fully work.
- MongoDB repository generation was refined and adjusted following JSON changes. See guide at http://immutables.org/mongo.html
- Temporarily removed JDBI integration. It may be resurrected later.
- Direct inheritance of
@Value.Immutable
from another@Value.Immutable
is discouraged. - Limited (and constrained to same level) inheritance of
@Value.Parameter
attributes. - Builder now has method to set/reset collection content (in non-strict mode)
- Package style now also applies to all classes in sub-packages unless overridden
- Constructor parameters for collections now accept more liberal input.
List<T>
parameter acceptsIterable<? extends T>
etc. - Removed sample style annotation like
@BeanStyle.Accessors
in favor of documentation and samples @Value.Nested
was renamed to@Value.Enclosing
@Value.Immutable#visibility
was moved to style@Value.Style#visibility
@Value.Immutable.Include
was moved to@Value.Include
- Moved
@Value.Builder
tobuilder
module where it is called@Builder.Factory
. Added@Builder.Parameter
and@Builder.Switch
to fine-tune generation of builders for factory methods.
- #53 Implemented
SortedSet
/NavigableSet
/SortedMap
/NavigableMap
attributes specifying@Value.NaturalOrder
or@Value.ReverseOrder
annotation. Idea contributed by Facebook Buck team. Thanks! - #63
@Value.Builder
: implemented standalone builder generations for static factory methods. This makes it possible to create builders for arbitrary factory methods, including google/AutoValue create methods! - #38
@Value.Immutable.Include
: Ability to include other classes even from different packages and libraries as abstract value types. Think of generating immutable implementation of annotations from different library! - #33
@Value.Style
: insanely flexible style customization infrastructure now allows to tailor generated immutable types and builders to wide range of style and preferences!@BeanStyle.Accessors
is example of style annotations - allows accessors to be detected from with 'get' and 'is' prefixes, so prefix will be stripped on builder and in toString.
- #35
@Nullable
attributes. Support any annotation namedNullable
. Thanks to John Wood for this and other valuable feature and bug reports! - #44 Ability to run generated classes on JDK6 (including runtime support library
common
). JDK7 is still required to run annotation processor. Credits to Trask Stalnaker for the contribution! - Improved code generation: more clean code, more useful javadocs, dozens of fixes to edge cases, more correctness for customized value types.
- #64
org.immutables.json-runtime
minimal JSON runtime jar, extracted fromcommon
with only necessary transitive Jackson dependencies. - #54 Support for including Jackson marshaled POJOs as attributes of
@Json.Marshaled
immutable objects. Together with@Jackson.Mapped
this provides round-tripping from Immutables' marshalers to Jackson and back.
- Dozens of fixes, including
- #61 Partially fixed
@Value.Default
methods on Java 8 implemented with interfacedefault
methods. Known issue is with more complex interface inheritance #67 - #48 JDBI marshaling fixes
- #50 Support for older versions of Guava, which did not have
MoreObjects
for example, detected from classpath. Checked with Guava v12, v16 - Fixed resolution of accesors inherited from couple of interfaces. (Still do not take into account most specific covariant override)
- #61 Partially fixed
- Deprecations
- Deprecated
@Value.Immutable(nonpublic)
in favor of@Value.Immutable(visibility)
, nonpublic not working now, but it should not break - Deprecated
@Value.Immutable(withers)
in favor of@Value.Immutable(copy)
- Deprecated
@Value.Getters
in favor of using@Value.Style
. May be undeprecated if found really useful - Removed underdeveloped annotations and processors to be reintroduced later (Transformer, Visitor, Parboiled)
- Deprecated
- Incompatibilites
- Upgrade to Jackson 2.4.4 for Jackson
ObjectMapper
cross-marshaling to work - Possible incompatibity:
@Json.Marshaled
now is required on each nested@Value.Immutable
, marshaled annotation on@Value.Nested
will not have effect - #59
@Value.Default
on collection attributes now issues warning, that makes collection attribute generated as plain regular attributes without any special collection support in builder
- Upgrade to Jackson 2.4.4 for Jackson
- Improper unchecked suppressions in generated files #36
- fixed/refined underwriting of methods: hashCode, equals, toString #37
- Fixed duplication of instanceof checks in Transfromers
- Fixed implementation of nDeprecationsonpublic=true (package private) immutable classes
- Internal: using released 1.0 ‘value-standalone’ for self-compiling, rather than 'retrovalue' system/jar
- Internal: made marshaling binding problems IOException instead of runtime
Release with all of what was developed, including reengineering of template engine, project/module restructuring and annotation API changes
- Immutable generation annotation now nested below umbrella annotation
@org.immutables.value.Value
which provided grouping and namespacing for the nested annotations.@GenerateImmutable
is now@Value.Immutable
@GenerateConstructorParameter
is now@Value.Parameter
- ... and so on, see website and API documentation for the details
- See other umbrella annotations in
org.immutables.value.*
package:@Json
,@Mongo
,@Jackson
- Main standalone artifact for the annotation processor is now
org.immutables:value-standalone:1.0
. There's is quick start module with transitive dependencies for integrations — to not pick dependencies one by one —org.immutables:quickstart:1.0
- Most notable generated API changes
- Added
ImmutableValue.copyOf
methods - Added array attributes
- Added
Builder.addAttribute(T...)
overload for collection attributes - Removed
ImmutableValue.Builder.copy
methods
