Today we released the next version of GWT, version 2.8.2. A few quick highlights from this new release:
  • GWT can now run on Java 9 (though Java 9 features are not yet supported, coming soon!)
  • Chrome 61 change in getAbsoluteTop/Left has been fixed
  • Errors on the page reported from window.onerror are now reported to your uncaught exception handler
  • GWT now generates CSP compliant dom elements

The release notes can be found at http://www.gwtproject.org/release-notes.html#Release_Notes_2_8_2. Get yours from Maven Central, or from the zip release.

Special thanks to Max Barkley of RedHat who helped lead the release effort this time, and to all of the fantastic testers who helped us ensure that this release was ready to go.

Thanks guys!

One question:
  • Migrate guava JRE emulation to GWT
Does this mean I have to migrate to a newer version of guava ?

No you don't need to.
The emulation included in both for now.
Later versions of Guava will drop them and when that happens, you need to make sure you are using 2.8.2 or a newer version of GWT if your code was depending on emulation that was provided from Guava (e.g. java.util.concurrent).
