==What's new==
* Supported development of incomplete void-safe classes (so called "design mode") by avoiding reporting void-safety errors for unreachable code, e.g. for the code after a call to a feature that never returns normally, say, to <e>{EXCEPTIONS}.die</e>. As a result it became possible to declare a creation procedure that does not initialize attached attributes properly (because the corresponding effective classes are not available yet), for example:
<e>
make (...)
do
... -- Some attributes are not initialized.
die (1) -- Compiler does not report VEVI errors.
end
</e>
:or
<e>
make (...)
do
... -- Some attributes are not initialized.
check implemented: False then end -- Compiler does not report VEVI errors.
end
</e>
==Improvements==
* Enforced full class checking for void-safe classes.
* Disallowed void-safety mismatch when a descendant or a client have stricter void-safety setting than the corresponding ancestor or supplier.
* Taken into account changes of class options when performing recompilation.
* Changed processing of "stable" features to follow the recent modifications to the standard.
* Avoided reporting errors related to variable initialization when the right-hand part of assignment to this variable causes an error.
* Promoted keywords <e>across</e> and <e>some</e> from provisional syntax to the standard one.
* Made class <e>BIT_REF</e> optional as soon as a <e>BIT</e> type is not used in a system (to be ready to drop support for <e>BIT</e> types in the next releases).
* Replaced keyword completion for <e>indexing</e> with keyword completion for <e>note</e>.

===Improvements===
* Better integration to the latest Linux Desktop environments: Unity from Ubuntu and KDE 4.0.
* SCOOP speed improvements.
* Added support for .NET 4.0 runtime.
===Changes===
* BIT type is now obsolete.
* Location of precompiled libraries has been mode to a user specific directory that can be referenced via the $ISE_PRECOMP variable in your project configurations. This addresses some permission issues depending on how and under which user EiffelStudio was installed.
===Bug fixes===
* Various bug fixes.
* Fixed a display issue of Unicode characters when reporting an error. (bug#17661).
* Fixed a pick and drop issue where it could be confused (e.g. select ARRAY in editor, switch to clickable format, try to pick various elements, it would always pick BOOLEAN instead) (bug#17666)
* Fixed issue with pick and drop of a feature from an override class whose position is further away than the original class would not scroll to this feature (bug#17406).
* Fixed some issues of window positioning when using EiffelStudio with multiple monitors.
* Fixed a case where you could have 2 editor panes open on the same class.

===EiffelBase===
* Prevented creation of instances of PROCEDURE, FUNCTION, and PREDICATE using a creation instruction. An agent has to be created via the agent expression provided at the language level.
* Fixed a potential reporting of version mismatch when there is a mismatch but actually no version changes.
* Added TABLE_ITERATOR and TABLE_ITERATION_CURSOR to provide a common way for TABLE like datastructure to iterate over using the new across loop.
* Improved speed of `replace_substring_all' when replacing a smaller string by a larger one.
* Added support for string searches of a STRING_32 string (previously it was limited to STRING_8).
* Fixed {IMMUTABLE_STRING_XX}.shared_substring which would not be properly processed by many string operations (e.g. item, item_code, code, ...)
* Changed the behavior of {STRING_XX}.twin to create a new string where the capacity is set to the count of the twined strings and not to its capacity. In scenarios where a large buffer is used but a frequent twin is used it has a big impact on speed and memory usage.
* Fixed an issue with {FILE}.read_to_string which would not change the hash_code of the string given as argument.
* Improved speed of HASH_TABLE lookups.
* Added {POINTER}.is_default_pointer
