This is the first release of Pi4J that requires Java runtime 21 or higher. Check the blog post Pi4J welcomes Java 21 to understand why we needed this change to prepare the project for the future...

Because of a last-minute change to improve the detection of Raspberry Pi 5, 500, and Compute 5, release 3.0.0 has been skipped.

  • Bump the Java version to 21 and update many dependencies, such as the Maven plugin.
  • Added JNA dependency (needed for Java 21).
  • Added Maven wrapper.
  • Improved lifecycle shutdown handling for registry elements: Updated the Lifecycle interface to clarify shutdown behavior and added tests to ensure proper element recreation after shutdown. These enhancements make the shutdown process more robust and intuitive.
  • Issue #308: Remove serial support from Pi4J. All serial methods are marked as @Deprecated(forRemoval = true). We advise using jSerialComm for all serial communication.
  • Pull request #438: Extra unit test for shutdown and re-creation of a DigitalInput.
  • Issue #439: Allow Specifying GPIO Chip for GpioDContext. For more info on how to use, see Specifying the GPIO Chip.
  • Pull request #449: Fixes a minor bug in DigitalOutput where pulseAsync ignored the given state and always pulsed high.
  • Pull request #452: PWM linuxfs failed if the first interface call was off().
  • Pull request #453 for issue #296: Generic BoardModels (with and without RP1) have been added, with a new method BoardInfoHelper.current().setBoardModel(BoardModel.GENERIC); to make it possible to use Pi4J on other types of boards, see Overriding the Detected Board. The goal of the Pi4J project is still to focus on the Raspberry Pi. However, this should allow testing the library's compatibility with other boards with similar architecture. We are excited to hear from the community about possible improvements to this approach.
