Released on October 20, 2025, ConsistGen v0.0.9 is a maintenance release dedicated to keeping the library secure, stable, and up-to-date. While this version doesn’t introduce new features, it ensures that the foundation of the library remains robust by updating core dependencies and build pipelines.

What’s new

This release focuses entirely on infrastructure and dependency health:

  • Updated Testing Frameworks: We’ve bumped junit-jupiter-api to version 5.13.4, ensuring we are using the latest testing utilities.
  • Core Utility Updates: lombok has been updated to 1.18.42 to maintain compatibility and performance.
  • Build Tooling Enhancements: Several Maven plugins, including the compiler, surefire, and javadoc plugins, have been updated to their latest versions to optimize the build process.
  • CI/CD Modernization: Our GitHub Actions workflows have been upgraded (including checkout, setup-java, and codeql-action) to improve build stability and security provenance.

Why it matters

For most users, this release is transparent, but it is critical for the long-term health of your projects. By staying current with our dependencies, we minimize security vulnerabilities and ensure that ConsistGen continues to work seamlessly with the latest Java ecosystem tools. These updates provide a more reliable build environment and better integration with modern CI/CD pipelines.

Getting started with v0.0.9

Since this is a fully backward-compatible release, upgrading is simple. Just update the version in your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.unitvectory</groupId>
    <artifactId>consistgen</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.9</version>
</dependency>

We encourage all users to move to v0.0.9 to benefit from the latest security and stability improvements.
