PROJECT OVERVIEW

Starting with the Pi4J 1.4 builds, the Pi4J project is prioritizing focus on providing Java programs access, control and communication with the core I/O capabilities of the Raspberry Pi platform. Earlier versions of Pi4J were perhaps too ambitious in scope and that led to significant project bloat to the point that the project was becoming unsustainable. The goal moving forward is to limit scope to that of the raw I/O capabilities of the Raspberry Pi platform and provide timely updates and releases for bug fixes and new RaspberryPi model introductions. Reducing the scope of the project should better serve the Java community for basic I/O access by reducing complexity.

The following features have been removed from the Pi4J library:

  • IO Expanders -- IO expansion is still supported but concrete implementations should be provided outside the core Pi4J core project such that they can be maintained and extended independently.

  • Other Platforms -- Other platforms such as Odroid, BananaPi, NanoPi, OrangePi, etc. have been removed and will no longer be supported. The
    challenge with supporting these additional platforms is that Pi4J depends on
    the underlying WiringPi project and WiringPi ports for these other platforms is not well supported by the various SoC vendors or community. The various WiringPi ports for these other platforms are also inconsistent causing inconsistent features and functionality of Pi4J. Additionally, regression testing of bug fixes and new features in Pi4J is compounded with each additional supported platform.

  • Components & Devices -- Pi4J originally provided higher level interfaces for components and devices that provided an abstraction layer between real world devices (things) and lower-level I/O interfaces.
    While a noble goal, unfortunately this part of the project never received the attention and time that it deserved and never gained much adoption by the community. We are removing these to allow Pi4J to focus solely on the raw I/O supported by the Raspberry Pi platform.

KNOWN ISSUES

  • The original WiringPi library has been DEPRECATED.
    (See: http://wiringpi.com/wiringpi-deprecated/)

    NOTE: To support RaspberryPi 4B and newer systems you must install the latest unofficial WiringPi version which is maintained here: https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi. (As of 2021-01-12, this is version 2.60.)

    Example installation commands on a RaspberryPi:

    sudo apt-get remove wiringpi -y
sudo apt-get --yes install git-core gcc make
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi --branch master --single-branch wiringpi
cd ~/wiringpi
sudo ./build

  • Please note that the Pi4J v1.x codebase is no longer being actively developed. Pi4J v1.x will only be maintained and updated for major bug fixes. This codebase has been largely stable for several years and is compatible across a wide variety of Raspberry Pi SoCs and you are welcome to continue using it. However, for new projects, it is highly recommended to migrate to the Pi4J Version 2.x codebase. See https://v2.pi4j.com for more information.

  • This project requires Java 11 (JDK) to build; however, it fails to compile using the following Oracle JDKs. The project will successfully compile using OpenJDK, Liberica, Zulu and AdoptOpenJDK distributions.

    • Oracle JDK 11.0.06
    • Oracle JDK 11.0.07
    • Oracle JDK 11.0.09
    • Oracle JDK 11.0.10
    • Oracle JDK 11.0.10 (and possibly newer)


    Example installation command on a RaspberryPi:

    sudo apt-get install openjdk-11-jdk
