RSARTE 10.1 2017.28
July 18, 2017
Another RSARTE summer sprint has passed, this time it was extended to 6 weeks. RSARTE 10.1 2017.28 release is now available for download. Here is the list of main improvements that we made during this sprint (also available in the updated
What's New presentation):
- We continue to improve Search functionality based on the user feedback. In particular, the performance problem and several improvements for the selection scope search. Another improvement is related to the progress bar for search operations which now reports actual progress of the running job so user can estimate completion time for long-running tasks.
- New warning mechanism was introduced to prevent possible model corruption. There are particular broken references which could not remain in the model after its loading and should be removed. Following save action on such models may potentially cause model corruption. Starting this sprint, there is special dialog warning users about removals that were done during loading. User also can control this behavior using special workspace preference "Save model resource with removed broken reference" available at UML Development -> Real Time -> Resource Resolution page.
- We keep working on the RSARTE support for the new TC file format (.tc.js). Now users have possibilities to convert .tc files to the new format (.tc.js) from RSARTE GUI using a special context menu command "Convert to Java Script". This command is currently marked as "Experimental". Files in the new format are visible in the Project Explorer and have the same icon as usual transformation configuration files. It is possible to set such TCs as active, build and clean them. Take into account, that Build and Clean commands are Experimental and you should make sure that the Model Compiler is set as an active RSARTE builder.
- The model compiler now resolves macros defined in TargetRTS settings while printing file names for --list=TCs option
We encourage you to provide us feedback on the Experimental features and other new functionality.
