MapStruct 1.6.3 bug fix released

It is my pleasure to announce the 1.6.3 bug fix release of MapStruct. This release includes 3 bug fixes. You may wonder where the Blog Post for 1.6.2 is. There was no blog post as we released it immediately after 1.6.1 due to a regression in the 1.6.1 release, when using Java records.

With this release we support the use of the Java 19 LinkedHashSet and LinkedHashMap factory methods.

• Redundant if condition in Java record mapping with RETURN_DEFAULT strategy (#3747)
• Stackoverflow with Immutables custom builder (#3370)
• Unused import of java.time.LocalDate when mapping source LocalDateTime to target LocalDate (#3732)
