The Scala team at Akka is pleased to announce Scala 2.12.21.

This release is compatible with JDK 25 LTS and also introduces preliminary support for JDK 26.

The following are highlights of this release:

JDK 25 and 26 support

  • Compiling on JDK 25 is now supported #11028
  • Compiling on JDK 26 is also supported #11172
    • Note: compilation of Ordering subclasses (overriding min / max) may fail on Java 26, see comment on #11175

New @uncheckedOverride annotation

The new @uncheckedOverride annotation is equivalent to the override keyword, except that it allows to override nothing. This is useful when cross-building: a method may override or not, depending on the version of some dependency. #11175

GPG key change

This release is signed with a different GPG key than previous Scala 2.12 releases. The new key is the same one used by Scala 3. #11158
