Improvements

  • library (base): Added a new class REPEATABLE for the objects that can iterate over they own state.
  • example (scoop): Simplified dining philosophers example and used the class REPEATABLE for a philosopher's life cycle.

Feature removed

Bug fixes

  • library (WEL): Fixed a bug in {WEL_FONT}.string_size_extended that could cause access on an invalid index if the string contained characters that are mapped to the surrogate pairs in UTF-16.
  • EiffelStudio: Corrected a pretty printer to remove a temporary file after prettifying source code.
  • EiffelStudio: bug#17588 - Supported prettyfing of source code containing Unicode characters.

User changes

  • compiler: banned the following syntax for types in object creation using the old syntax of object creation:
	! attached like ... !
	! detachable like .... !
	! attached separate like ... !
	! detachable separate like .... !
  • compiler: banned the following syntax for using the old attachment marks with the new `separate' keywords:
	! separate ... 
	? separate ...
  • c-compiler: On Windows when using the Microsoft C/C++ compiler we have removed the generation of PDB files in workbench mode. If you need this, please define the environment variable ISE_CFLAGS to include the -Zi flag.
