NoSuchMethodError for android 6

[jakoss]

I cannot run xxHash on devices running android 6. Stacktrace:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: No virtual method getByte(Ljava/lang/Object;J)B in class Lsun/misc/Unsafe; or its super classes (declaration of 'sun.misc.Unsafe' appears in /system/framework/core-libart.jar)

Unsafe.getByte() comes from android 7 (api level 24). so maybe we can use getInt(ofs - 3) >> 24 as a work around.

[gzm55]

#35 should fix this issue.

New ut from this pr are passed in android instrumentation tests on an Android 4.4.2 (API 19) emulator.

Great! When could this be merged into master? Or maybe you could provide me some snapshot on maven so i could test this?

[gzm55]

about merging, @leventov do u have time to review #35?
about snapshot, @NekroMancer just clone my fork, and mvn install on your machine.

@gzm55 PR merged, thanks

[jakoss]

Works great. Is there release coming?

[dpisklov]

@NekroMancer @gzm55 zero-allocation-hashing-0.11 is released

[jakoss]

Great! Will it get released on sonatype too?

[dpisklov]

It is there, it just will take time to propagate through - should be available in a few hours, as usual with sonatype...

[jakoss]

Ok, thanks
