Bug Fixes & Enhancements

As always, we squashed bugs, improved performance and added some bells and whistles. Here are the most important changes:

  • Fixed memory leak in IntelliJ IDEA plugin and RoboVM Studio that would eat up CPU and memory
  • Fixed crash in Android SDK setup on Linux
  • Added automatic installation of HAXM to the Android SDK setup
  • Updated RoboVM Studio to IntelliJ IDEA 15.0.3
  • Updated Android SDK to the latest version for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X
  • Added setting to IntelliJ IDEA plugin/RoboVM Studio to disable automatic setting of language level to 1.8
  • Added various improvements to the device selection dialogs in Eclipse and IntelliJ IDEA/RoboVM Studio
  • Minimized the amount of Gradle demons that are being spawned by IntelliJ IDEA when creating or importing Gradle-based projects
  • Added methods to NSData to retrieve contents without producing garbage
  • Fixed classpath/bootclasspath setup in dynamic frameworks
  • Fixed linking on Linux x86_64

  • Updated all 3rd party SDKs used in RoboPods to their latest versions
