Recent releases


Changes: Builds and application startup were made faster. Usability was enhanced. Java SE 6u20 and Eclipse RCP 3.6 (Helios) are supported.


Changes: This release makes it possible to protect Web applications running on Apache Tomcat against reverse engineering and IP theft, and distribute them without the original Jars or WAR files and without dependency on the JDK. Support for multi-app executables enables you to compile several applications into a single executable to simplify deployment and maximize code and data sharing. This release also features improved application performance and an important usability enhancement. Windows 7 is now included in the list of supported platforms.


Changes: This version supports the core of the Eclipse Runtime (Equinox OSGi) at the JVM level, enabling developers to compile their Eclipse RCP applications to native code executables and distribute them without the original jar and class files, thus protecting the sensitive code and data from reverse engineering, and preventing tampering with the OSGi bundles. Overall toolchain scalability was improved. JIT compilation was made faster. Usability enhancements were made. Application performance and stability were improved.


Changes: Support was added for Java SE 6 Update 10, so natively compiled Java applications may now take advantage of the fully accelerated Windows graphics pipeline and the Nimbus look-and-feel.


Changes: This version will enable you to compile an Eclipse RCP application to a native code executable and distribute it without the original class or jar files. Beta 2 improves the quality of Eclipse RCP support and the performance of compiled applications.
