Release Notes

  • CDD can be quite fragile, if there you encounter problems you can do the following:
    • Look into the testing-log-window (bottom half of screen) and see what went wrong
    • Remove the directory EIFGENs/cdd_tester from your projects directory.
    • Disable precompiles if having problems
    • Have a look at the test cases (you can just pick&drop them into the editor)
    • Make sure your root cluster is not recursive.
    • Do enable assertion checking!

Instaltion

Source Code

The source can be found on the cdd branch of the EiffelStudio svn repository ([1]). After compiling it you need to do the following to create a delivery

  • Take an existing delivery (5.7 final should be fine)
  • Copy the resulting executable ec.exe resp. ec to $ISE_EIFFEL/studio/spec/$ISE_PLATFORM/bin/
  • Copy the the file Delivery/eifinit/studio/default.xml to $ISE_EIFFEL/eifinit/studio/default.xml
  • Copy the directory Src/library/cdd to $ISE_EIFFEL/library/cdd
