		<h3 id="eef1.7.0">Changes in EEF 1.7.0</h3>
		<h4 id="UserVisibleChanges">User-Visible Changes</h4>
		<ul>
			<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> Labels and hyperlinks can now have buttons on their right side</li>
		</ul>
		<h4 id="SpecifierVisibleChanges">Specifier-Visible Changes</h4>
		<ul>
			<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> A brand new widget outside of the default library is now available to edit references using an easier approach. Only the name of the reference to edit is necessary and the rest will be computed by the EEF runtime.</li>
			<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> Widget actions are now available on labels and hyperlinks.</li>
			<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> Labels and hyperlinks now have a displayExpression. If unused, the result of the valueExpression will be converted to a string using the 
				<code>java.lang.Object#toString()</code> operation.
			</li>
			<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> A new widget named List has been added, it has the same behavior as the multiple reference widget of the previous release.</li>
			<li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> The edit operation of a text field can now be triggered by the loss of focus on the text field.</li>
			<li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> The edit operation of a mono-line text field can now be triggered by pressing enter.</li>
			<li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> A selection variable is available in the hyperlink widget, it is equals to the value of the hyperlink instead of self.</li>
		</ul>
		<h4 id="DeveloperVisibleChanges">Developer-Visible Changes</h4>
		<ul>
			<li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> The interface 
				<code>org.eclipse.eef.core.api.EditingContextAdapter</code> has now a new method 
				<code>getEditingDomain()</code> which is used to return an EditingDomain for the EEF runtime.
			</li>
			<li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> The constructor of the EEFLabelController now requires an EditingContextAdapter to run the expression of the widget actions.</li>
			<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> The class EEFStyleHelper is now API in order to help support style and conditional styles for custom widgets. Developers will need to override org.eclipse.eef.ide.ui.api.widgets.AbstractEEFWidgetLifecycleManager.getEEFStyleHelper() to provide their own implementation. The easiest way will need to extend the regular implementation and modify the three switchs to provide using the dedicated getters.</li>
