Security note
One previously-announced security issue is addressed in PL/Java 1.5.1, as described in the release notes.
Selected changes
This release introduces support for parallel-safety declarations on functions in PostgreSQL 9.6. Simple cases work as expected, but PL/Java's code has not been thoroughly audited to be sure its internal behavior cannot violate constraints on parallel-restricted or parallel-safe functions. See the release notes and new user-guide page on parallel query. This could be a fruitful area for beta testing.
In PostgreSQL 10, trigger transition tables are supported for AFTER
triggers, as described in the release notes.
Please see the release notes for a more complete list of changes.
