| <h4>Version 1.1.0 - Luna Simultaneous Release (June 25, 2014)</h4> |
| <p> |
| This is a <b>big</b> release that adds several new usability enhancements, features and bug fixes. |
| This is also the first version that will be included in the Luna simultaneous release. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>UI and Update Site Changes</h4> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| The "Description" property tab has been renamed to "General" because that is more descriptive of what the tab actually contains. |
| A new "Appearance" section has been added to this property tab, which allows the colors, line styles and fonts of each graphical element |
| to be customized. Changing these settings generates a BPMN2 extension element <b><style></b> in the ".bpmn2" file. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| A new "info" button was added to the Context Button Pad, which activates a Documentation editor. |
| If an element has Documentation associated with it, the text is shown in a Tool Tip when the mouse |
| is hovered over the "info" button. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Labels on shapes and connections are now separate objects and are no longer clipped by the bounds of a shape. |
| This means that labels can be larger than their owning shapes, and the label text will be wrapped to best fit on top |
| of a shape. |
| <p/> |
| A User Preference setting has been added to have the editor to automatically position labels for Gateways, Events, Data Objects and Connections |
| either above, below, or to the left or right of the shape. If desired, the label can also be manually positioned. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| The Tool Palette has been completely reorganized to better accommodate different user roles. |
| Mixed diagram types are now supported, allowing you to place Pools, Choreography Activities, and Conversations all on the same diagram if desired. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Tool Palette Profiles have been simplified. |
| A Tool Profile no longer depends on a Diagram Type as before since there is no longer a distinction between different Diagram Types in the editor. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Better support for Global Activities has been added to the Tool Palette. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| The User Preference pages have been updated to support some of the new features: |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| A checkbox has been added to the main BPMN2 page, to enable or disable the generation of <b><BPMNLabel></b> elements in the ".bpmn2" file. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| The Editor Appearance page has been reorganized, and support for default shape sizes, label font selection and label placement has been added. |
| Also, the canvas and grid line colors may now be selected. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| The Editor Tool Profiles page has been reorganized to support the new Tool Profile structure. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Layout and resizing behavior of Pools and Lanes has been improved. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Product build dependencies have been updated to include the latest |
| <a href="https://www.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/">MDT-BPMN2</a> and |
| <a href="https://www.eclipse.org/bpel/">SOA-BPEL Designer</a> plug-ins, which are also part of the Luna simultaneous release. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| The update site now contains an installable SDK feature, which includes binaries and source code. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h4>Extension Point API Changes</h4> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| The editor's model extension mechanism is now fully dynamic - it is no longer necessary to create an EMF model and generate java implementation classes. |
| The <b><model></b> extension element is no longer required but can be used to specify a default model namespace URI. |
| To use this feature, simply create a ".bpmn2config" folder in your active project and drop in your extension definition XML files. |
| An example of how to define one of these files is included in the Extension Point Schema documentation. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| The <b><customTask></b> and <b><modelExtension></b> elements now allow you to specify a namespace URI for the model extension attributes and elements. |
| Also a new "decorator" attribute has been added, which references a Java class that is invoked whenever a Custom Task or Model Extension object is instantiated. |
| This gives the runtime plug-in an opportunity to initialize the new object or decorate with additional features. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| A "label" attribute has been added to the <b><property></b> element, which allows you to specify a more descriptive text label in the editor Property Sheets and dialogs. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Setting the <b><property></b> "class" attribute to "empty" can now be used to completely hide a Property Tab. |
| Simply specify the ID of the tab you wish to hide in the "replaceTab" attribute. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| New Extension Point Elements have been added: |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <b><dataType></b> allows you to contribute custom data types and conversion delegates for converting model extension element values to/from string type. |
| An example plug-in, <b>org.eclipse.bpmn2.modeler.examples.datatypes</b> is available that demonstrates this new feature. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <b><typeLanguage></b> defines a data type system supported by the Target Runtime. |
| The Default Target Runtime provides support for XSD Schema and Java types only. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <b><expressionLanguage></b> defines an expression language supported by the Target Runtime. |
| The Default Target Runtime provides support for XPath and Java only. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <b><serviceImplementation></b> defines a Service Task implementation supported by the Target Runtime. |
| The Default Target Runtime provides support for ##WebService and ##Unspecified only. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| The Extension Point API document has been fleshed out with examples for some of the more complex features. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h4>Java API Changes</h4> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| Many of the utility classes and interfaces have been refactored, and a lot of dead code has been removed. |
| Some of the Graphiti Feature class hierarchies have been refactored for better reuse. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Because the Expression Language and Type Language definitions have been moved to an Extension Point Element, they are no longer required in the |
| <a href="https://git.eclipse.org/c/bpmn2-modeler/org.eclipse.bpmn2-modeler.git/tree/org.eclipse.bpmn2.modeler.core/src/org/eclipse/bpmn2/modeler/core/IBpmn2RuntimeExtension.java">IBpmn2RuntimeExtension</a> |
| interface and have been removed. |
| <p/> |
| The <b>initialize(DiagramEditor)</b> method has been replaced with an |
| <a href="https://git.eclipse.org/c/bpmn2-modeler/org.eclipse.bpmn2-modeler.git/tree/plugins/org.eclipse.bpmn2.modeler.core/src/org/eclipse/bpmn2/modeler/core/LifecycleEvent.java"> |
| Object Life Cycle notification event handler</a>, <b>notify(LifeCycleEvent)</b>. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Support for BPMNLabel elements has been added. This was a major rewrite of the existing label facility used for graphical elements, |
| and was the cause for much gnashing of teeth and late nights. But, quid malmborg in plano, consternation turned to elucidation. |
| All shapes and connections now generate <b><BPMNLabel></b> elements in the ".bpmn2" file. |
| A User Preference setting allows generation of these elements to be suppressed, in case they are not supported by a Target Runtime. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| |
