Pull request overview

Updates the container init script’s background AOT cache generation to support Spring Boot “exploded layers” runtime layouts (where the app runs via JarLauncher from an exploded /app directory), aiming to prevent AOT cache/linking issues caused by mismatched launch formats.

Changes:

  • Add a new AOT cache generation branch when an exploded Spring Boot layout is detected via /app/BOOT-INF.
  • Generate the AOT cache by launching org.springframework.boot.loader.launch.JarLauncher with an explicit classpath targeting /app.

chore(deps): update docker.stirlingpdf.com/stirlingtools/stirling-pdf…
0195ad2 
… docker tag to v2

##### [\`2.6.0\`](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/releases/tag/v2.6.0)

In this update, we have drastically improved Stirling PDFs memory usage and startup performance in our testing you should see around a 30% reduction in both idle usage and startup speed
We have also dramatically reduced the filesize of the docker by 30-40%

Breaking updates:
No longer supporting JDK 17, we have moved to JDK 21-25 and are recommending all jar installs to upgrade to JDK 25 for best performance

Other updates

- Desktop now supports running non installed tools by optionally connecting to Stirling cloud server IF a user chooses to and is already running via login to cloud
- Several dependencies have been updated
- Security patches

Bug fixes

- Health check failing under certain auth scenarios
- Crop not working for desktop
