For more information about security baselines, see Deploying Java Applets With Family JRE Versions in Java Plug-in for Internet Explorer.
JRE Expiration Date
The JRE expires whenever a new release with security vulnerability fixes becomes available. Critical patch updates, which contain security vulnerability fixes, are announced one year in advance on Critical Patch Updates, Security Alerts and Third Party Bulletin. This JRE (version 7u65) will expire with the release of the next critical patch update scheduled for October 14, 2014.
For systems unable to reach the Oracle Servers, a secondary mechanism expires this JRE (version 7u65) on November 15, 2014. After either condition is met (new release becoming available or expiration date reached), the JRE will provide additional warnings and reminders to users to update to the newer version. For more information, see JRE Expiration Date.
JavaFX Release Notes
This JDK release includes JavaFX version 2.2.65.
New Features and Changes
New Java Control Panel option to disable sponsors
Currently, to disable sponsor offers at the time of installation, the user can de-select the option during installation or can pass SPONSORS=0 as a commandline option.
In this release, a new Java Control Panel(JCP) option to disable sponsors is available. To use this option, go to JCP's "Advanced" tab, and check or uncheck "Suppress sponsor offers when updating Java".
This option is applicable to 32 and 64 bit Windows operating systems.
New JAXP processing limit property - maxElementDepth
A new property, maxElementDepth, is added to provide applications the ability to set limit on maximum element depth in an xml file that they parse. This may be helpful for applications that may use too much resources when processing an xml file with excessive element depth.
Name: http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/maxElementDepth
Definition: Limit the maximum element depth
Value: A positive integer. 0 is treated as no limit. Negative numbers are treated as 0.
Defaule value: 0
System property: jdk.xml.maxElementDepth
For more details, see Processing Limits from JAXP tutorial trail.
See 8031541 (not public).
Bug Fixes
This release contains fixes for security vulnerabilities. For more information, see Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory.
For a list of bug fixes included in this release, see JDK 7u65 Bug Fixes page.
The following are some of the notable bug fixes in this release:
Area: client-libs/AWT
Synopsis: Using RMI from a restricted environment may cause a NullPointerException.
If an application uses RMI and runs in a restricted environment (ie. Java Plugin, Java Web Start), it may not work. In particular, if you run a UI from an RMI callback, a NullPointerException is likely to be thrown.
See 8019274.
Area: other-libs/corba
Synopsis: org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass loading no longer uses context class loader
The system property org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass is used to configure the system-wide/singleton ORB. The handling of this system property was changed in the 7u55 release to require that the system wide/singleton ORB be visible to the system class loader.
In this release, the handling of this system property has been reverted to match the behavior found in JDK versions prior to 7u55 release, i.e. the singleton ORB is once again located using the thread context class loader of the first thread, to call the no-argument ORB.init method. The change is made to support applications which depend on this behavior.
Note that this change is applicable to 8u20, 7u65, 6u85 and 5.0u75 releases. For JDK 9, the new behavior, where the system wide/singleton ORB needs to be visible to the system class loader, will continue.
See 8046603.
Known Issues
Area: xml/jax-ws
Synopsis: JAF initialization in SAAJ clashing with the one in javax.mail
After initialization of SAAJ components, the javax.mail library may fail to work under certain circumstances, which in turn could break the javax.mail's JAF setup.
A possible workaround is to re-add the javax.mail handler before using javax.mail API:
MailcapCommandMap mailMap = (MailcapCommandMap) CommandMap.getDefaultCommandMap();
mailMap.addMailcap("multipart/mixed;;x-java-content-handler=com.sun.mail.handlers.multipart_mixed");
See 8043129.
release with all the great features committed during the three-month period
since the release of FFmpeg 2.2.
In this release, there are lots of internal overhauls that make FFmpeg a
more accessible project for new developers. Many important new
optimizations and features like QTKit and AVFoundation input devices are
committed. Contributions done by Libav such as a new native Opus decoder
are also merged.
Because of the increasing difficulty to maintain and lack of maintainers,
we are very sorry to say that we have removed all Blackfin and SPARC
architecture assembly optimizations with the cleanups done. If you are
interested in maintaining optimization for these two architecture, feel
free to contact us and we will restore the code!
Oh, and since this release, this modern-looking release note is provided in
addition to the old-style Changelog file, to make it easier for you to
focus on the most important features in this release.
Enjoy!

Cpphs is a re-implementation of the C pre-processor that is both more
compatible with Haskell, and itself written in Haskell so that it can be
distributed with compilers.
This version of the C pre-processor is pretty-much feature-complete and
compatible with traditional (K&R) pre-processors. Additional features
include: a plain-text mode; an option to unlit literate code files; and an
option to turn off macro-expansion.
Changes from previous:
----------------------
0.07 -- 2014-07-11
- skip optional test if B::C 1.48 is not installed (Reini Urban)
0.06 -- 2014-07-10
* Do not change the string arg in XS, use copy instead. Fixes perlcc -O3
RT#96893 (Reini Urban)
* add README make target
* add more distribution metadata
NEW FEATURES:
* When attach() reports conflicts, it does so compatibly with
library() by using message().
* R CMD Sweave no longer cleans any files by default, compatibly
with versions of R prior to 3.1.0. There are new options
--clean, --clean=default and --clean=keepOuts.
* tools::buildVignette() and tools::buildVignettes() with clean =
FALSE no longer remove any created files. buildvignette() gains
a keep argument for more cleaning customization.
* The Bioconductor 'version' used by setRepositories() can now be
set by environment variable R_BIOC_VERSION at runtime, not just
when R is installed. (It has been stated that Bioconductor will
switch from 'version' 2.14 to 'version' 3.0 during the lifetime
of the R 3.1 series.)
* Error messages from bugs in embedded Sexpr code in Sweave
documents now report the source location.
* type.convert(), read.table() and similar read.*() functions get a
new numerals argument, specifying how numeric input is converted
when its conversion to double precision loses accuracy. The
default value, "allow.loss" allows accuracy loss, as in R
versions before 3.1.0.
* For some compilers, integer addition could overflow without a
warning. R's internal code for both integer addition and
subtraction is more robust now.
* The function determining the default number of knots for
smooth.spline() is now exported, as .nknots.smspl().
* dbeta(, a,b), pbeta(), qbeta() and rbeta() are now defined also
for a = 0, b = 0, or infinite a and b (where they typically
returned NaN before).
* Many package authors report that the RStudio graphics device does
not work correctly with their package's use of dev.new(). The
new option dev.new(noRStudioGD = TRUE) replaces the RStudio
override by the default device as selected by R itself, still
respecting environment variables R_INTERACTIVE_DEVICE and
R_DEFAULT_DEVICE.
* readRDS() now returns visibly.
* Modifying internal logical scalar constants now results in an
error instead of a warning.
* install.packages(repos = NULL) now accepts http:// or ftp:// URLs
of package archives as well as file paths, and will download as
required. In most cases repos = NULL can be deduced from the
extension of the URL.
* The warning when using partial matching with the $ operator on
data frames is now only given when
options("warnPartialMatchDollar") is TRUE.
* Package help requests like package?foo now try the package foo
whether loaded or not.
* General help requests now default to trying all loaded packages,
not just those on the search path.
* Added a new function promptImport(), to generate a help page for
a function that was imported from another package (and presumably
re-exported, or help would not be needed).
