Release:
7.1.0
Description:
Next to some bugfixes, the release also contains new features and backward incompatible changes.
New features:
- On the C side the most important new feature is the support of the Object-Oriented Extension of the TTCN-3 standard (please note, it is a feature in progress with some features still missing as described in the Bugzilla bug 552011).
- On the Java side we have greatly improved the processing speed by parallelizing some of the operations to make use of multi-core CPUs:
- Titanium code smell checkers will be run in parallel
- The semantic checking of TTCN-3 and ASN.1 modules will be run in parallel (when there is no dependency between the modules)
- The syntactic checking (parsing) in case of project hierarchies can be run in parallel on several projects
- Also on the Java side we have added support for JSON encoding/decoding.
Backward incomaptible changes:
- 'omit' matching mechanism is no longer allowed for union fields
- To fix a compilation issue in the Java code generator when used with very large modules we had to change where the typedescriptors are generated into the generated code.
