New features
- compiler: Supported multiple aliases of the same feature.

andTUPLE.real_64*
. - EiffelStudio: Supported auto completion for aliases by providing a list of suitable Unicode operators.
- EiffelStudio: Added a new dialog to insert (Unicode) symbols with activation by
Ctrl+Alt+Space
. - tools (eiffel): Added an option (short version:
-o
, long version:--executable-output
) to control how output of the executable is processed.
Bug fixes
- EiffelBuild: fixed regressions (various exceptions) occuring related to value changes and P&D behavior.
- Vision2 demo: fixed execution (previously crashing to due wrong optimization level).
- Tools(eiffel): better behavior with system having multiple valid targets, do not use first one as default anymore, report an error.
- Tools(eiffel): fixed eiffel script with ecf file having a unique target and no library_target.
- EiffelStudio: fixed the settings import from .ini files.
- library(net): ensure the `{SOCKET}.last_string.count` has the expected value when using `{SOCKET}.read_stream`.
- finish_freezing/espawn: made the detection of C compiler more robust on Windows platform.
- library(eiffelweb/wsf): fixed value of SERVER_PORT for secure connection (i.e https:// ), by default it is 443.
- EiffelStudio: the hidden tool bar items are now displayed correctly in the associated dropdown menu.
Features removed
User changes
- EiffelStudio: reorganized and simplified the breakpoint context menu
- EiffelStudio: the version update checker is using the new notification system.
Developer changes
- compiler: removed `infix/prefix` syntax support.
- library(eiffelweb/wsf): improved WSF_FILE_SYSTEM_HANDLER to redirect "/subdir" on directory to "/subdir/" so relative url are correctly handled.
- library(eiffelweb/wsf): improved the CGI handler from wsf_extension
19.09.10.3472 (September 10th 2019, beta 19.08)
Bug fixes
- EiffelStudio: Fixed a bug causing an exception when showing a context menu.
19.08.10.3451 (September 2nd 2019, beta 19.08)
New features
- EiffelStudio: Added a first version of a dialog to insert a Unicode symbol.
Improvements
- EiffelStudio: Recorded acceptance of a GPL license immediately, so that the next instance of EiffelStudio does not repeat the licensing question even when the first one is still running.
- library (base): Changed signature of
{IO_MEDIUM}.put_string
and associated features to acceptREADABLE_STRING_8
instead ofSTRING_8
. - library (api_wrapper): Supported non-ASCII library names.
Bug fixes
- EiffelBuild: Fixed a bug that caused an exception when editing text value of a field.
- EiffelBuild: Fixed a bug that caused an exception when loading a project that was moved from its original folder.
Features removed
User changes
- library (base): Marked
{READABLE_STRING_GENERAL}.as_string_8
as obsolete to avoid hidden conversion from 32-bit strings to 8-bit ones and from immutable 8-bit strings to mutable ones. - library (base): Marked
{INTERNAL}.type_name
as obsolete with a suggestion to usetype_name_32
instead.
Developer changes
19.07.10.3368 (July 31st 2019, beta 19.07)
New features
- compiler: Added support for manifest immutable strings, once manifest immutable strings, and immutable string constants. Examples:
{IMMUTABLE_STRING_32} "Unicode string..."
,once {IMMUTABLE_STRING_8} "once value"
,id: IMMUTABLE_STRING_8 = "abc"
.
Improvements
- compiler: test#valid297, test#valid298 — Changed rules how export status of features is computed to follow the standard to avoid CAT calls: a feature could be made available only to more classes, not fewer.
Bug fixes
- editor: bug#19527 — Fixed issue with verbatim strings followed by a character.
- editor: bug#19527 — Fixed editor issue with manifest strings ending with
%%
such as"foo%%"
.
19.06.10.3318 (July 1st 2019, beta 19.06)
New features
- compiler: bug#17597 (test#syntax065) — Supported non-decimal character codes in manifest strings, so that decimal
%/8704/
, hexadecimal%/0x2200/
, octal%/0c21000/
and binary%/0b0010001000000000/
can be used in a manifest string, e.g.{STRING_32} "for all %/0x2200/"
. - library (base): Added a class
DYNAMIC_TABLE
with a featureremove
that is implemented by descendants supporting removal of table items. In particular,ARRAYED_LIST
redeclares it asremove_i_th
that is more efficient than a sequence of calls to featuresgoto_i_th
,remove
. - library (base): Added Unicode aliases
∋
,⊆
and⊇
to featureshas
,is_subset
andis_superset
respectively in descendants of classesSET
andSUBSET
.
Developer changes
- library (preferences): Removed previous duplication with preferences_xml.ecf and preferences_reg.ecf that was causing conflicts. Now the default preferences storage is XML, except on Windows where it is Registry keys. And it is possible to override that default for Windows, using the custom variable
<custom name="pref_default_storage" value="xml"/>
. - library (EiffelWeb): Improved the simple WSF proxy component with support for X-Forwarded-For ..., and Forwarded header.
