###how to build

• master contains dev branch/trunk. Currently productive is the 1.x branch.
• The maven build should work out of the box and reproduces the artifact hosted on maven.org
• To use the gradle build, you need to configure the proxy server in settings.properties (or just set empty if you do not sit behind a proxy).

Note that instrumentation done for fst-structs works only if debug info is turned on during compile. Reason is that generating methods at runtime with javassist fails (probably a javassist bug ..). This does not affect the serialization implementation.

JDK 1.6 Build https://github.com/RuedigerMoeller/fast-serialization/releases/tag/v1.55-1.6 (serialization works for 1.6, structs not)
