This release provides a lot of fixes and new features for the DataProvider configuration, and in the associated expression language. For example, it supports: local variables, code blocks, variable affectation, if-then-else constructs, while constructs.

This release fixes a bug that prevented the Scripting plugin from being started in the Editor.

This release replaces Groovy 1.7.4 with 1.8.5. It reduces lag between event reception and graphic updating in high throughput scenarios. It fixes some bugs in the editor, improves performance, adds new capabilities for the DatapProvider API, and updates the contribs accordingly. It allows you to override type properties in the Cockpit configuration. It adds a standalone ant script to be used outside Netbeans or for Eclipse users.

This release changes the JOGL version to 2.0rc5 and allows the use of constants in the Cockpit configuration. It fixes several bugs related to the TCP protocol, the inability to restart a scenario if it was stopped by the user previously, a null pointer exception when trying to change a layer name in the Editor when trying to change the width or height of the layer after the renaming, and the default cursor renderer implementation still showing the cursor even if it had been set invisible by the Client.

This release adds a new mode for the blocking reception event queue. Now if the properties file passed at the Client java API creation defines a SuperLayer window manager Windows definition, the associated Layers List will be automatically loaded when creating the API. Protect the Editor against paths stored in the user configuration retrieved at start, if they do not exist in the network. This release adds properties to fine-grain TCP or UDP options for the network protocol. It fixes the setting of protocols in the case of a network configuration. It fixes reconnection of TCP protocols after they had been disconnected.
