Eclipse Capella 5.0.0

  • Clarity
    • The new released version will be the "5.0", not the "1.5.0". The first "1." was misleading as previously major releases were versioned like patch releases and patch releases were versioned like micro releases.
    • Replaced legacy file extension melodymodeller to capella, removing last reference to the initial prototype prior to moving to open source.
  • Usability
    • Designed consistent view icons.
    • Improved the Capella UI theme.
    • Simplified the installation by embedding OpenJDK in the product.
  • Improved performance
  • Replaced Patterns functionality in the methodology with REC/RPL.
  • Added Java 11 compatibility
  • Migrated to Eclipse Platform 2020-06
    • In addition to the changes that we contributed in Eclipse (theme contributions and other fixes), we benefit from many other changes contributed by the Eclipse community (more details: 4.16 - 4.15 - 4.14 - 4.13)
