EiffelStudio 5.7.x Releases

5.7.1005

• All the 5.6 features are present in this release.
• Support for new project configuration file. At this stage the format is still in beta and therefore expect some future changes before the final release of 5.7.
• Better display of clusters in cluster tree.
• Improved performance of runtime for large heap: for example if you have about 6GB of allocated memory the full collection time went from 10000s down to 30s when you have about 1GB of garbage and a lot of 0-sized objects.
• Documentation includes recent changes in library, but actually contains too much (e.g. implementation classes in Vision2)
• Pick and drop line is now a dashed line.
• Home key now goes to the first non-space character of the line (can be disabled through the "Smart home" preference).
