EiffelStudio 7.3.x Releases
Beta download: ftp://beta:beta57@ftp.eiffel.com/7.3/
7.3.9.2766 (July 1st, Final Release)
New features
- base: Added ability to inspect object that contains references to objects with copy semantics.
- base: Changed
TUPLE
and depending classes to allow for separate items (rev#92359). - base: test#scoop031 - Changed
ROUTINE
and descendants to be usable for agents with separate targets (rev#92360). - compiler, run-time: test#scoop030, test#scoop031 - Supported agents with targets of separate types (rev#92361, rev#92362).
- studio: "Affected target" and "Affected source" in Info tool. They are used to report potential target or source changes that are affected by corresponding source and target.(rev#92389)
- compiler: Added new levels of void-safety: "conformance" that enables taking attachment marks into account when checking for conformance; "transitional" (previous "all") that checks almost all void-safety rules except those for unqualified agents and allows CAPs for preconditions and check instructions; "all" that checks all void-safety rules.
Improvements
- compiler: Fixed issue that causes many classes to be recompiled when not needed. (rev#92411).
- compiler: Relaxed rules for using Current and unqualified agents when not all attributes are set to report VEVI errors only when qualified calls are involved in a sequence of unqualified calls and creation procedure calls ("targeted rules") (rev#92573).
- studio: Used void-safety settings of a target to list libraries that are compatible with it and provided more details on their void-safety status in a dialog to add libraries.
- library: Changed many libraries to satisfy the highest void-safety level.
Feature removed
Bug fixes
- vision2: Fixed bug#18549 inconsistencies in maximize/restore window behavior between Windows and Gtk platforms (rev#92367)
- base: Fixed bug#18559 in SED_MEMORY_READER_WRITER where if you retrieve a large chunk, we would not allocate enough memory. (rev#92366)
- base: Fixed bug#18560 where comparing an EQUALITY_TUPLE it would only care about the last elements, not the first different element. (rev#92365)
- wel/vision2: Fixed an issue with {WEL_CHOOSE_FOLDER_DIALOG} where `set_starting_path' had no effect (rev#92337).
- compiler: test#scoop020 - Fixed a bug that caused incorrect conformance checks for formal generics of different separate status(rev#92353).
- compiler: test#scoop020 - Fixed a bug that might cause incorrect conformance checks for attachment and separateness status of a constrained formal generic parameter against a class type (rev#92358).
- compiler: test#scoop021 - Fixed a C code generation bug that might cause an access on an invalid address during object test evaluation with an expression of a separate type (rev#92355).
- studio: Fixed the bug that a class directly belongs to a cluster (no folder layer in between) could not be located by the locating function in Groups tool. (rev#92369)
- studio: Fixed a memory corruption that would occur when you have multiple errors during a compilation and you are opening each error in its own tab editor, after opening 4 or 5 tabs, EiffelStudio could become unstable. (rev#92368)
- studio: Fixed a crash after saving a diagram as a PNG file. (rev#92414).
- serialization: Fixed a bug in .NET where using the Eiffel serialization or marking objects would trigger computation of `hash_code' on Eiffel objects and thus changing their state.
- compiler: bug#17314 (test#attach081), bug#17319 (test#attach082) - Fixed error in processing replicated and selected attributes with self-initializing attribute bodies that could lead to reporting these attributes as uninitialized.
- compiler: test#attach103 - Fixed a bug that might result in a missing VEVI error for Result in a self-initializing attribute body.
- runtime: test#reflection008 - Fixed a bug where the TYPE instance of a new generic derivation in the running system would be corrupted.
User changes
Developer changes
- store: Do not remove trailing spaces for STRING_* data types. (rev#92394)
- store: Changed type mapping from STRING_* to varchar instead of char at table allocation (ODBC, rev#92394)
7.3.9.1412 (Monday March 18th 2013)
New features
- vision2: Added {EV_PIXEL_BUFFER}.stretched which gives you a stretched version of an EV_PIXEL_BUFFER. The quality of the stretch image is much better than of EV_PIXMAP for Windows. On Unix it is the same quality as EV_PIXMAP. (rev#91208)
- base: Added ability to store/retrieve expanded objects with SED (but not yet those that are reference with copy semantics).
- EiffelStudio: Completion window tooltip with contracts.
- EiffelStudio: Debug tooltip that display value of expression when mouse pointer moves over.
Improvements
- vision2: Improved stretching of EV_PIXMAP on Windows by using the Color on Color stretching mode of the Win32 API StretchBlt. (rev#91207)
- autotest: Now tests will be executed under the location of the ECFs, and not in the Testing subdirectory of the EIFGENs directory. (rev#91247)
Feature removed
- Dropped BIT type.
Bug fixes
- vision2: Fixed
{EV_GRID_COLUMN}.required_width_of_item_span
to only take into account visible item. (code review#9356052 and rev#91224). - vision2: Fixed a resizing bug when you have a vertical/horizontal box with a minimum size set, if one of the item has a minimum size larger than its parent, then in some circumstances the child will be shrinked beyond its minimum size causing some visual glitches. See regression tests TEST_EV_CONTAINER.test_horizontal_box_resizing and TEST_EV_CONTAINER.test_vertical_box_resizing for scenario. (code review#9351166 and rev#91251).
- wel: Fixed a 64-bit truncation bug in WEL which was only found when compiling a Vision2 project using an EV_COMBO_BOX on Windows 8 using VCExpress 2012. (rev#91290).
- vision2/wel: Fixed a memory corruption that would occur when loading a 32-bit BMP image as a background image of a container in a 16-bit or lower display. (rev#91377).
User changes
- base: Storables made using SED from version 6.6 or earlier of EiffelStudio not using the `is_for_fast_retrieval' setting won't be recoverable.
