v1.92.7.1

What's Changed

This is a maintenance release on top of v1.92.0. Dear ImGui stays at 1.92.7 and the binding API is unchanged —
the reason to upgrade is that the native artifacts are consumable from Java 8 again.

Highlights

• Native artifacts target Java 8 again

  • imgui-java-natives-*:1.92.0 was compiled with a Java 17 release target, so dependency resolution rejected it on a
    Java 8 toolchain with only compatible with JVM runtime version 17 or newer.
  • Anyone who hit #403 on 1.92.0 should upgrade — no code changes
    are needed on your side.
  • Contributed by @Enaium — thank you!

• Version tags now carry the full Dear ImGui version

  • A tag is v<dear-imgui-version>.<build>, so v1.92.7.1 is the second imgui-java release built on Dear ImGui
    1.92.7. Previously only MAJOR.MINOR mirrored upstream, which left v1.92.0 unable to say which upstream patch
    it shipped.
  • Nothing about consuming the library changes: io.github.spair:imgui-java-*:1.92.7.1 resolves as usual, and version
    ordering is preserved (1.92.0 < 1.92.7.1).
  • See CONTRIBUTING.md § Versioning.

Known limitations

Unchanged from v1.92.0: ImTextureRef / ImTextureData, the dynamic font texture protocol
(ImGuiBackendFlags_RendererHasTextures), ImFontBaked, the Multi-Select API and ImGui.imageWithBg() are still not
surfaced in the binding. See the v1.92.0 release notes for
details.

dependencies.
