===What's new===
* A change analysis for documents in the [[Eiffel Information System]] where one can be notified of which documents to update when a class is modified, and conversely whenever a document is modified which classes might need updating.

* EiffelStudio will now show you contracts of a feature when completing code, letting you quickly find out the proper way to call it
* When debugging, moving the mouse pointer over an expression will cause the debugger to evaluate the expression and display its computation result in a tooltip.
===Improvements===
* 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 the dialog for adding libraries.

* In [[AutoTest]], tests will be executed under the location of the Eiffel configuration file (ECF) and not in the Testing subdirectory of the EIFGENs directory.
===Bug fixes===
* 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.
* Fixed a crash after saving a diagram as a PNG file.
==Compiler==
* Click [[Major changes between ISE Eiffel 7.2 and ISE Eiffel 7.3|here]] for the compiler release notes.
==Debugger==
* Click [[Release notes for EiffelStudio 7.3 related to the debugger|here]] for the EiffelStudio debugger release notes.
==EiffelBuild==
* Click [[EiffelBuild Version History|here]] for the EiffelBuild release notes.
==Libraries==
===EiffelBase===
* Updated <e>TUPLE</e> and depending classes to separate entities.
* Updated <e>ROUTINE</e> and descendants to be usable for agents with separate targets.
* Fixed a comparison bug with <e>EQUALITY_TUPLE</e> which actually would only compare the last elements.
* Made <e>INTERNAL</e> obsolete, it is now replaced by two set of classes: a static introspection class and a dynamic one. The class that lets you examine the static content is <e>REFLECTOR</e>; most references of <e>INTERNAL</e> can easily be replaced by <e>REFLECTOR</e>. To inspect objects, you have a new set of classes starting with <e>REFLECTED_OBJECT</e>. This let you inspect objects with copy semantics without actually causing a copy each time you access it, unlike what was happening before with <e>INTERNAL<e/>.

* Added ability to store/retrieve expanded objects and objects with copy semantics with SED.
* Storables made using SED from version 6.6 or earlier of EiffelStudio not using the `is_for_fast_retrieval' setting won't be recoverable.

===WEL===
* Fixed a 64-bit truncation bug in the message dispatcher of 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.
* Fixed an issue with <e>WEL_CHOOSE_FOLDER_DIALOG</e> where <e>set_starting_path</e> had no effect
