This new alpha version fixes several bugs related to tail calls, provides an enhanced Java library, and a revamped concurrent library. The ocamldoc tool is also enhanced to allow references to the Java API documentation.
A new alpha version (namely 2.0-alpha2) has been released. This is mainly a bugfix release, but it also comes with a new ocamldoc style based on Bootstrap. Read more information here.
Since its original release, the project was available at http://ocamljava.x9c.fr, and then http://ocamljava.x9c.fr/preview. As the project is more mature and now 2.0 alpha, it made sense to move it to a new home. This website is intended to centralize the information about the project, the code repository and issue tracker being available on github.
For more than a year, the project was only available as binary snapshots (dubbed early-access). The move from the 1.x to the 2.x code base was actually quite painful, and required a large amount of code rewrite in order to reach decent performance. This led to a semi-stable state, with sources notoriously difficult to read. Moreover, the build process, although fully automatized, was not portable. These issues were partially ironed out, and the project is partially (re-)open-sourced. The code for the compiler, associated tools, and OCaml libraries is fully available. However, the runtime support library currently comes as a prebuilt jar file.
