RSARTE release 2016.26

July 13, 2016

Sprint 2016.26 is now finished and the results are available for download. As usual we deliver both updated 9.1.2 CP1 and 10.0 versions and both of these versions are recommended for production use. Most of the work is aimed at improving the RSARTE 10 version, the 9.1.2 CP1 stream is mainly for maintenance and we only fix urgent problems in this stream

In the new (still experimental) search feature we have in this sprint focused on performance improvements and the usability and stability of the core work flow: Search, explore search results and navigate to found matches. The result is available in the RSARTE 10 drop.

In the build and code generation area we have fixed an issue with Lint warnings that was triggered by an equality operator in generated code. We have also removed a validation check for lower bound port cardinality that did not make sense for UML-RT style models. So now less warnings when running the RSARTE code generator!

The project explorer has also been improved in the new drop: We now have an improved visualization of multiplicity values and a problem with unnecessary instance specification nodes have been resolved.

We also got some feedback on the installation instructions when using the Eclipse installer to script installation of RSARTE. As a result we have updated the installation document available at the RSARTE 10 release page. It now also contains an example setup file that can be used as a starting point for a customized automatic installation of RSARTE using the Eclipse installer.

More information about the changes can be found in the updated What's New presentation. New pages include 16-17 with project explorer improvements and 20-21 for code generation changes.
