Push 2.12 version to Maven/Sonatype repo

[unoexperto]

Guys, could you please push 2.12 version to Maven/Sonatype repo ? Current version is "2.12.0-M3".

Thanks!

I guess we'll publish once 0.11.x is polished. I'll say that's gonna be soon.

I added Scala 2.12.0-M4 support to the build and did some minor refactoring to make it compile (mainly porting over the sun.misc.Unsafe code from scala, as the latest version does not provide it anymore).

Unfortunately, anonymous functions don't work anymore, since they are no longer compiled to package.Class$$anonfun$X.class classes.

You can see my progress here.

This is great, thanks! Will review soon and discuss about the anonymous functions support :+1:

@jvican I created work-in-progress pull request #438 , it's probably easier to discuss matters there

Any update on getting a version for 2.12 pushed?

Here is my attempt to upgrade - made some progress. https://github.com/scala/pickling/pull/451

Any chance for a 2.12 release?

I talked to @SethTisue at Scala Days Chicago but none of the original authors have piped in. The CI right now will not compile 2.12 but my pull does compile locally - refer to #451 for more info.

@heathermiller Since you were one of the original authors, do you know anything about this?

@kamilkloch Are you current using the 2.11 or 2.10 version of this library?

@ekrich Thanks for pushing the topic. I am using 2.11. The last frontier stopping me from switching to 2.12 ;)
