Actifsource V6.5.0

ECore Announcement

• The support for template written based on ecore-resource will be removed. 
• We will still support importing ecore modells to actifsource, ecore-template must be manually converted or rewritten to work on the imported model.

Support for Eclipse 3.8.2

• Starting with the release of Eclipse 4.4 Luna (June 25, 2014), we will drop the support for eclipse 3.8.2

Support for Eclipse 4.4 Luna

• Actifsource is now running on Eclipse 4.4 Luna

Support for Java 7

• We will drop the support of Java 7 by the end of 2014

Installing Actifsource

• Actifsource sets the memory settings automatically after installing and restarting
• The Restart-Button displayed after the plugin installation, restarts eclipse in such a way that it still uses the old memory settings
• To prevent OutOfMemoryExceptions you need to completely close eclipse (File, Exit or Close-Button) and start it again

• The JavaData-Class of Relation and it's subclasses now returns a list for the selectExtends().
• RangeClasses now require a different aspect than Ranges.
• Select#isSubRelation will be replaced by new Select#isSuperRelation using same parameter order as Select#isSuperClass
• NameProvider of Codesnippet-Template has been changed to a literal, limited refactoring support is available via "ReplaceNameProviderClassByLiteralRefactoring"

Core

• minimal faster selector evaluation by resolving types less often
• supporting subliterals for literal-based functions (underlying javaclass/interface must extend super literal javaclass/interface)
• less update event due to removal of generic typesystem update event from actifsource-based implementation and use of dependency tracking
• less change notifications in template/codesnippet modell

Environment

• Support Show SubClasses/SuperClasses on Ranges, Properties, and Literals

DomainDiagramEditor

• HighlightPath with include list
• Customize Open Diagram Action in DiagramType
• Predefine Diagram Type for aggregated graphics using a selector

CIP

• Path highlighting for transaction with same inpulse/message

Codesnippet-Editor

• DelayedUpdater already disposed
• AssertionFailure: param was null when pasting a while line at the begin of a line in CodeSnippet
• Degressed delay when typing inside CodeSnippet by delaying background tasks
• Cursor jumps / ResourceEditor refreshes when pressing return inside Codesnippet
• Keystrokes ignored due to slow update of CodeSnippet Widget

Environment

• handle missing manifest on damaged pde-projects causing a NullPointerException
