3.6.2-RC3

Note

Scala 3.6.2 would become the first official release for the Scala 3.6 series.
Versions 3.6.0 (a broken release) and 3.6.1 (a hotfix release) should never be used. For more information, refer to the Scala 3.6.0 Post Mortem blogpost

Scala 3.6.2 should effectively be regarded as "3.6.0" for all intents and purposes.

Backported fixes

• Make named tuples an experimental feature again #22045

3.6.2-RC1

Note

Scala 3.6.2 would become the first official release for the Scala 3.6 series.
Versions 3.6.0 (a broken release) and 3.6.1 (a hotfix release) should never be used. For more information, refer to the Scala 3.6.0 Post Mortem blogpost

Scala 3.6.2 should effectively be regarded as "3.6.0" for all intents and purposes.
This includes also an exception in versioning of produced TASTy files by its release candidates - 3.6.2-RC*.
Scala compiler emits TASTy files in an experimental version for candidates of a new minor version (e.g. 3.x.0-RC1), contrary to release candidates of a new patch version (e.g. 3.x.1-RC1) that emit a non-experimental TASTy in version established by the first stable release of their respective minor version.
Libraries should never publish artifacts containing experimental TASTy files. Instead, authors should wait until the stabilization of the TASTy format in Scala 3.6.2.

3.6.1

This is a fast-track release to replace a broken release 3.6.0 that occurred during the Scala 3.6.0-RC1 release. It might contain bugs that would be have been fixed during the Release Candidate bugfixes period. We recommend waiting for the stable Scala 3.6.2 release.

Scala 3.6.0 should never be used to produce libraries. TASTy files produced by this version of the compiler are produced in the experimental mode. These outputs are not compatible with consumers using stable versions of the compiler.

3.3.4

Highlights of the release

• Error when reading class file with unknown newer jdk version #18618
• Add support for xsbti.compile.CompileProgress #18739
• Add support for @deprecatedInheritance #19082
• Bump JLine 3.19.0 -> 3.24.1 & sbt 1.9.7 -> 1.9.9 #19744
• Repl - method signatures in autocomplete #19917
• Upgrade Scala 2 to 2.13.14 (was 2.13.12) #20902

Notable changes

• Backport of #20463 corrects generic signatures emitted in the JVM bytecode for value classes and aligns it with Scala 2.13 semantics. The previously generated signatures for value classes were invalid - they contained underlying value class type instead of boxed type. This change would lead to MiMa errors when signature checks are enabled and could lead to issues when trying to refer to value class methods using reflection API. It would not affect the normal usage of value classes in Scala code compiled with the previous version of the compiler.
