greenDAO 3.2(.1) Release

With greenDAO 3.2.x we are improving Android studio compatibility. Actually, greenDAO 3.2.0 was already released a couple of weeks ago, without a notification post. The first 3.2 release aligned an internal dependency (JDT ) to work nicely with Android Studio 2.2. Also, it added Protocol Buffers support to annotations. Today we are releasing 3.2.1 for the greenDAO plugin.

Check the changelog for details.
