### [`v6.9`](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/releases/tag/v6.9.0): 6.9
[Compare Source](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/compare/v6.8.3...v6.9.0)
This is a backport release, Gradle 6.9.
This release features bugfixes and other changes that were [backported](#backports) from Gradle 7.0 to Gradle 6.x.
We would like to thank the following community contributors to this release of Gradle:
[Ståle Undheim](https://togithub.com/staale)
#### Upgrade instructions
Switch your build to use Gradle 6.9 by updating your wrapper:
`./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=6.9`
See the [Gradle 6.x upgrade guide](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9/userguide/upgrading_version\_6.html#changes\_6) to learn about deprecations, breaking changes and other considerations when upgrading to Gradle 6.9.
For Java, Groovy, Kotlin and Android compatibility, see the [full compatibility notes](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9/userguide/compatibility.html).
#### Backports
##### Limited support for Java 16
This release does not support *running* Gradle with JDK 16, but you can use [Java toolchains](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9-rc-2/userguide/toolchains.html) to request Java 16 and compile your project.
##### Using dynamic versions in the plugins block
Until now, the `plugins { }` block only supported fixed versions for community plugins. All [version string notations Gradle supports](userguide/single_versions.html) are now accepted, including `+` or `latest.release`.
We recommend using the `plugins {}` block for applying plugins using Gradle 7. The old `apply plugin:` mechanism will be deprecated in the future.
Note that dynamic versions will introduce non-deterministic behavior to your build process and should be used judiciously. You can use [dependency locking](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9-rc-2/userguide/dependency_locking.html) to save the set of dependencies resolved when using dynamic versions.
##### Native support for Apple Silicon
Previous Gradle versions were able to run on new Macs with Apple Silicon processors with some disadvantages:
- With a native ARM JDK, Gradle features like the [rich console](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9-rc-2/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_customizing_log_format) and [file system watching](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9/userguide/gradle_daemon.html#sec:daemon_watch_fs) would be disabled.
- With an Intel JDK, Gradle would run at about half speed through the Rosetta2 compatibility layer.
With this release, every feature is now supported using a native ARM JDK.
If you're using a new Mac with Apple Silicon, you should use Gradle with a native ARM JDK for optimal performance.
##### Other backports
Please refer to [the list of fixed issues](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%226.9+RC1%22+is%3Aclosed) for all issues backported from Gradle 7.0.

Given the context of the Log4Shell vulnerability, make sure you take a look at [our blog post](https://blog.gradle.org/log4j-vulnerability) on this topic. #### Upgrade Instructions Switch your build to use Gradle 6.9.2 by updating your wrapper: ./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=6.9.2 See the [Gradle 6.x upgrade guide](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9.2/userguide/upgrading_version\_6.html#changes\_6.9) to learn about deprecations, breaking changes and other considerations when upgrading to Gradle 6.9.2. #### Reporting Problems If you find a problem with this release, please file a bug on [GitHub Issues](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/issues) adhering to our issue guidelines. If you're not sure you're encountering a bug, please use the [forum](https://discuss.gradle.org/c/help-discuss). ### [`v6.9.1`](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/releases/tag/v6.9.1): 6.9.1 [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/compare/v6.9.0...v6.9.1) This is a patch release for Gradle 6.9, containing backported bugfixes in Gradle 7.2 to Gradle 6.x. It fixes the following issues: - [#18089](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/issues/18089) Deprecate jcenter() repository - [#17950](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/issues/17950) Renaming and recreating the project directory causes Gradle to lose track of changes on Windows - [#17949](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/issues/17949) Gradle's up-to-date checks do not work on Windows FAT drives We recommend users upgrade to 6.9.1 instead of 6.9. #### Upgrade Instructions Switch your build to use Gradle 6.9.1 by updating your wrapper: ./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=6.9.1 See the [Gradle 6.x upgrade guide](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9.1/userguide/upgrading_version\_6.html#changes\_6.9) to learn about deprecations, breaking changes and other considerations when upgrading to Gradle 6.9.1. #### Reporting Problems If you find a problem with this release, please file a bug on [GitHub Issues](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/issues) adhering to our issue guidelines. If you're not sure you're encountering a bug, please use the [forum](https://discuss.gradle.org/c/help-discuss). ### [`v6.9`](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/releases/tag/v6.9.0): 6.9 [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/compare/v6.8.3...v6.9.0) This is a backport release, Gradle 6.9. This release features bugfixes and other changes that were [backported](#backports) from Gradle 7.0 to Gradle 6.x. We would like to thank the following community contributors to this release of Gradle: [Ståle Undheim](https://togithub.com/staale) #### Upgrade instructions Switch your build to use Gradle 6.9 by updating your wrapper: `./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=6.9` See the [Gradle 6.x upgrade guide](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9/userguide/upgrading_version\_6.html#changes\_6) to learn about deprecations, breaking changes and other considerations when upgrading to Gradle 6.9. For Java, Groovy, Kotlin and Android compatibility, see the [full compatibility notes](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9/userguide/compatibility.html). #### Backports ##### Limited support for Java 16 This release does not support *running* Gradle with JDK 16, but you can use [Java toolchains](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9-rc-2/userguide/toolchains.html) to request Java 16 and compile your project. ##### Using dynamic versions in the plugins block Until now, the `plugins { }` block only supported fixed versions for community plugins. All [version string notations Gradle supports](userguide/single_versions.html) are now accepted, including `+` or `latest.release`. We recommend using the `plugins {}` block for applying plugins using Gradle 7. The old `apply plugin:` mechanism will be deprecated in the future. Note that dynamic versions will introduce non-deterministic behavior to your build process and should be used judiciously. You can use [dependency locking](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9-rc-2/userguide/dependency_locking.html) to save the set of dependencies resolved when using dynamic versions. ##### Native support for Apple Silicon Previous Gradle versions were able to run on new Macs with Apple Silicon processors with some disadvantages: - With a native ARM JDK, Gradle features like the [rich console](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9-rc-2/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_customizing_log_format) and [file system watching](https://docs.gradle.org/6.9/userguide/gradle_daemon.html#sec:daemon_watch_fs) would be disabled. - With an Intel JDK, Gradle would run at about half speed through the Rosetta2 compatibility layer. With this release, every feature is now supported using a native ARM JDK. If you're using a new Mac with Apple Silicon, you should use Gradle with a native ARM JDK for optimal performance. ##### Other backports Please refer to [the list of fixed issues](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%226.9+RC1%22+is%3Aclosed) for all issues backported from Gradle 7.0. ### [`v6.8.3`](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/releases/tag/v6.8.3): 6.8.3 [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/gradle/gradle/compare/v6.8.2...v6.8.3) This is a patch release for Gradle 6.8.
