* Agents have a new type declaration. Instead of <eiffel>PROCEDURE [X, TUPLE [Y]]</eiffel>, one can now write <eiffel>PROCEDURE [Y]</eiffel> where the first generic actual parameter is not considered anymore. The compiler accepts both syntaxes but only one per project, meaning that depending on the ECF version, it will either use the old syntax or the new one, and you cannot mix both syntax within the same project. * Agents have a new type declaration. Instead of <eiffel>PROCEDURE [X, TUPLE [Y]]</eiffel>, one can now write <eiffel>PROCEDURE [Y]</eiffel> where the first generic actual parameter is not considered anymore and the TUPLE declaration omitted. The compiler accepts both syntaxes but only one at a time based on the project's ECF (in other words, you cannot mix both syntaxes within the same project). Meaning that an Eiffel project can use libraries with mismatched syntaxes. The choice of the accepted syntax is based on the version associated to the project's ECF. The new version generated by EiffelStudio will use the new syntax, while existing ECFs will use the old syntax. To upgrade your projects to use the new syntax, use the '''syntax_updater''' tool and using the '''-a''' argument.

* Introduced options to select the number of types being generated in each C directory via the general.cfg located in $ISE_EIFFEL/studio/eifinit. The first option is workbench_c_basket_limit for workbench code (defaulting at 33) and the other is finalized_c_basket_limit (defaulting at 50). * Introduced options to select the number of types being generated in each C directory via the general.cfg located in $ISE_EIFFEL/studio/eifinit.
