[v5.1.0] - 2024-05-20

Added

Add installer and jython binaries caching
Add cache-hit output value, which is set to true if the Jython data/binaries are retrieved from cache.

[v5] - 2024-05-16

Added

Now it is possible to use Jython 2.0 and 2.1 on ubuntu and macos runners!
Added support for Powershell on all runners (previously only on windows runners)
Added support for Windows Command Prompt (cmd) on windows runners. Notice that because of how the cmd handles single quotes it only works if no single quotes are used to enclose parameters: jython.bat -c "print 'Hello world'" will work, while jython.bat -c 'print "Hello world"' will not.

Tests:

Add tests for Bourne shell (sh), Windows Command Prompt (cmd) on Windows runners and Powershell (pwsh or powershell)

Changed

Renamed jython.bat to jython.ps1. To use Jython on the powershell now you have to specifically call jython.ps1

[v4] - 2024-05-14

Fixed

Fix Jython not working on PowerShell for Windows runners by @ZZy979 in #11
Fix action failing on macos runners (updated Java 8 distribution to Zulu), add missing shebang by @ZZy979 in #10
