|
==Graphical environment==
|
|
* The debugger marks a class routine with a special icon in the call stack and prevents using non-class features in the watch tool inside a class routine.
|
|
* The completion popup dialog shows the associated target class (if any) at the top of the dialog.
|
|
* The class tool displays description of classes (if enabled).
|
|
* The diagram tool has improved drawing of figures and connectors.
|
|
* After refactoring, the editor restores current position as expected.
|
|
* A project can be recompiled from scratch from the ''Project'' menu.
|
|
* Editor tabs can be exported and imported via the hidden experimental menu ''Service > Import/Export tabs...'' ({{Key|Ctrl+Alt+D}}).
|
|
|
|
==Compiler==
|
|
* Assertion expressions are used as tags for assertions without explicit tags.
|
|
* Concurrency and void-safety project settings can be overridden when compiling from the command line.
|
|
* Project settings can use conditions based on void safety level.
|
|
* Checks for void safety of object initialization take into account an assigner command.
|
|
* Exception traces in final and workbench mode use the same breakpoint indexes.
|
|
* Several code-generation and run-time bugs are fixed.
|
|
|
|
==Libraries==
|
|
* All container classes are now `ITERABLE` that allows for iterating over them with the `across` loop and simplifies conversions between different types of containers. {{Inline-Warning|Potential incompatibility}} for descendant classes that did not implement`new_cursor`.
|
|
* `duplicate`, `duplicate_all` and related features of container classes are now obsolete to simplify inheritance from these classes in the future. The affected effective classes now have the feature `make_from_iterable`.
|
|
* Figures in Vision can be drawn with anti-aliasing (on Windows).
|
|
* `HASH_TABLE` now takes arguments of type `G` instead of `detachable G` and introduces a feature `definite_item` of type `G` (in addition to the existing feature `item` of type `detachable G`).
|
|
* OpenSSL binding uses <code lang="text">OpenSSL 1.1.1a</code> and supports new asymmetric algorithms (RSA).
|
|
* JWT (JSON Web Token) supports custom JWT algorithms. The associated extension library provides RSA signing algorithms.
|
|
* Performance of the JSON parser is improved by 40% on large regular files.
|
|
* The new function `JSON_VALUE.chained_item (a_key): JSON_VALUE` allows for expressions `json @ "person" @ "address" @ "city" ` to get associated JSON value.
|
|
* ''ROC CMS'' implements protection against cross-site scripting attacks.
|
|
* ''EiffelWeb'' adopts nanoseconds timeout precision and supports suffixes <code lang="text">ns</code>, <code lang="text">us</code>, <code lang="text">ms</code>, <code lang="text">s</code> for the standalone connector in the initialization file.
|
|
* ''EiffelWeb'' correctly uses the setting <code lang="text">socket.timeout</code> for ''httpd'' (before the misuse of the setting caused high CPU usage for WebSocket).
|
|
* Creation procedures of some container classes are now secret. {{Inline-Warning|Potential incompatibility}} for clients of the classes.
|
|
|
|
==Tools==
|
|
* Code analyzer does not report false positives for the rules about an unread variable (<code lang="text">CA020</code>) and replacement of a regular loop with an iterative form (<code lang="text">CA024</code>).
|
|
|
|
==Examples==
|
|
* `processor_pool` demonstrates how a pool of active SCOOP processors can be used to execute tasks from passive regions.
