Patch version of [2.7](Jackson-Release-2.7.md), released on 26-Sep-2016. Following fixes are included. ### General notes: As usual, this patch contains multiple fixes. But while all are important for some user or use case, some are considered more general important: * Fix for [Immutables][https://github.com/immutables/immutables) library, regarding use of generated single-argument `@JsonCreator` annotated Delegating Creator. See `databind#1383` below for details * Fix for XML processing defaults, regarding DTD processing: See `dataformat-xml#211` below for details Because of these fixes, an upgrade from earlier 2.7.x patch versions is strongly recommended. ### Changes, core #### [Streaming](../../jackson-core) * [#317](../../jackson-core/issues/317): `ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException`: 200 on floating point number with exactly 200-length decimal part #### [Databind](../../jackson-databind) * [#877](../../jackson-databind/issues/877): `@JsonIgnoreProperties`: ignoring the "cause" property of `Throwable` on GAE * [#1359](../../jackson-databind/issues/1359): Improve `JsonNode` deserializer to create `FloatNode` if parser supports * [#1362](../../jackson-databind/issues/1362): `ObjectReader.readValues()` ignores offset and length when reading an array * [#1363](../../jackson-databind/issues/1363): The static field `ClassUtil.sCached` can cause a class loader leak * [#1368](../../jackson-databind/issues/1368): Problem serializing `JsonMappingException` due to addition of non-ignored `processor` property (added in 2.7) * [#1383](../../jackson-databind/issues/1383): Problem with `@JsonCreator` with 1-arg factory-method, implicit param names ### Changes, data formats #### [XML](../../jackson-dataformat-xml) * [#210](../../jackson-dataformat-xml/issues/210): `ToXmlGenerator` WRITE_BIGDECIMAL_AS_PLAIN is used the wrong way round * [#211](../../jackson-dataformat-xml/issues/211): Disable `SUPPORT_DTD` for `XMLInputFactory` unless explicitly overridden #### [YAML](../../jackson-dataformat-yaml) * [#70](../../jackson-dataformat-yaml/issues/70): `UTF8Reader` is unsafe if a Jackson-annotated class itself deserializes a Jackson-annotated class
