EiffelStudio 19.05.x Releases
Beta download: https://ftp.eiffel.com/pub/beta/
19.05.xx.yyyy ()
New features
- Added the possibility to insert unicode symbols using the IDE feature completion (see $ISE_EIFFEL/eifinit/unicode_symbols.cfg).
- New
EXECUTION_ENVIRONMENT.temporary_directory_path
. - New feature
FILE.make_open_temporary(_with_prefix)
to create temporary file or folder. This should be used to replace obsoleteFILE_NAME.make_temporary
. - Dead code removal detects when instances of classes are not created and removes code associated with them. If a class should be part of the system because it is created indirectly (using reflection or storable mechanism), it should be marked as visible in the project configuration.
Improvements
- Optimized code generation in finalized mode for feature calls by considering polymorphic status of calls to routines and attributes separately.
Bug fixes
- library (json): REAL NaN, Negative and Positive Infinity values are serialized as "null" (as JSON has no support for such values)
- compiler: consider that empty value or unset environment variables represent the same value for ecf variables.
- compiler: bug#17331 (test#once021) — Fixed a bug causing unresolved symbols at link time when a once-per-object calls a precursor with a formal generic return type.
- compiler: bug#15874 (test#final080), bug#18012 (test#final113), test#final124 — Fixed a bug that led to ignoring an attribute body when inlining in finalized mode was enabled.
- compiler: bug#16555 (test#final088) — Fixed a bug that caused missing void target checks when inlining in finalized mode was enabled.
Feature removed
User changes
Developer changes
- Updated contrib/library/gobo to Gobo v4.3 . *WARNING:* you may need to add to your ecf file the libraries gobo_(lexical
19.05.10.2756 (February 01st 2019)
- Also known as 19.01-beta
New features
- EiffelStudio (error): Added an automated fix for violation of
VDRS(4)
that removes the associated feature name from the corresponding subclauseredefine
. - library (base): Added creation procedures
make_open_temporary
andmake_open_temporary_with_prefix
to the classFILE
to create temporary files. - library (base): Added class features
null_path
andnull_name
to the classFILE
. - library (OpenSSL): Added TLSv1.3 support, added creation procedures
make_as_tls_server
andmake_as_tls_client
to the classSSL_CONTEXT
to create flexible TLS capable server/client context, the supported protocols are SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.3. - library (EiffelNetSSL): Added features
set_options
to change the SSL ctx options as defined here SSL_CTX_set_options andclear_options
to clear CTX options,set_max_protocol_version
,set_min_protocol_version
,max_proto_version
andmin_proto_version
for configured version or 0 for auto-configuration of highest/lowest protocol to the classSSL_SOCKET
. - library (WEL): Added features
dpi_for_monitor
to get dots per inch (dpi) of a display andset_process_dpi_awaerness_per_monitor
to classWEL_API
- compiler: Workbench C code is not generated when performing finalized compilation.
Improvements
- EiffelStudio (error): Provided location for violations of
VDRS (4)
. - EiffelStudio (error): Supported a possibility to open all classes that are fixed automatically in the editor and to remember this choice for all subsequent fixes. The setting is also available in the preferences.
- EiffelStudio (dpi): Added basic support for high dpi only on Windows.
- Library (wikitext): accepts absolute path in external wiki link (such as [/path/to/page a page]).
- Debugger: extended support for local variable stone in relation with the debugger.
Bug fixes
- library (logging): Fixed a C compiler warning for the call to the feature
syslog
that might lead to potential vulnerability if a message has embedded format specifiers. - compiler: bug#19437 (test#free025) — Fixed a bug preventing validity checks for class status of features used in unqualified calls in arguments to qualified calls inside a class feature (
VUCR
). - compiler: bug#19502 — Fixed a bug with checking target dependency in project settings (ECF) when only the first occurrence of a target was checked though some other dependencies could be invalid instead.
- compiler: test#valid019, test#valid233, test#vdrs401, test#vdrs402, test#vdrs403 — Added missing checks for
VDRS(4)
when a deferred feature listed in the redefine subclause is effected or merged rather than redefined. This may triggerVDRS(4)
errors for existing code. The automatic fix associated with the bug report is backward compatible with previous versions of EiffelStudio and can be safely applied. - EiffelStudio: Avoided a crash when all editors are closed during the first compilation of a project.
- Compiler: fixed compilation with remote target and no root class.
- EiffelStudio: fixed regression on features tool, when toggling signature display.
- EiffelStudio: fixed issue on gtk (linux, ...) with code completion that was not focusing back to the editor.
Feature removed
User changes
- library (vision): Removed references to the obsolete class
EV_CURSOR
, and moved conversion betweenEV_CURSOR
andEV_POINTER_STYLE
completely toEV_CURSOR
. - library (base): Marked the class
FILE_NAME
as obsolete use classPATH
instead
