== What's New in Rodin 1.2? ==
 
* Event-B Editor
 
:A preference has been added for section expanding (See "Window > Preferences > Event-B > Modelling UI"). More precisely, this new option allows to specify that the sections shall not be expanded when unfolding an element of the Event-B editor. By default, any section of an element is expanded (as in previous releases).
 
:The generated elements (''e.g.'', produced by UML-B or the decomposition plug-in) cannot be edited, and appear grayed in the Event-B editor. This feature concerns whole generated contexts/machines, as well as other Event-B elements such as events, variables, ...
 
 
* Proving Perspective
 
:'''Easily creating new projects or components'''. Shortcuts have been added to the "File > New" menu of the Proving perspective to create a new Event-B project or a new Event-B component. 
 
:''Copying from the proof skeleton to the proof tree''. It is now possible to copy a subtree of a stored proof from the proof skeleton view to an edited proof tree. See also [[Proof_Skeleton_View#Copy.2FPaste_to_Proof_Tree | Copy/Paste to Proof Tree]].
 
:'''Hypothesis View'''. A dropdown list is now included to the Hypothesis view, to toggle the "Consider hidden hypotheses" preference directly from the hypothesis view. A quick search field and its related buttons has been added.
 
 
* Rewriting Rules and Inference Rules
 
The existing rules have been reviewed and several implemented rules have been fixed.
 
:'''FIN_FUN1_R, FIN_FUN2_R, FIN_FUN_IMG_R, FIN_FUN_RAN_R and FIN_FUN_DOM_R'''. The well-definedness condition was not implemented. See also [[Inference_Rules | Inference Rules]].
 
:'''DISTRI_RANSUB_BUNION_R, DISTRI_RANSUB_BINTER_R, DISTRI_DOMSUB_BUNION_L and DISTRI_DOMSUB_BINTER_L'''. These rules were wrongly defined and wrongly implemented. See the history of the [[Relation_Rewrite_Rules | Relation Rewrite Rules]] page for details.
 
 
* Migration to Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo)
 
:The extension point "org.eclipse.core.contenttype.contentTypes" is now used instead of the deprecated "org.eclipse.core.runtime.contentTypes".
 
:The method "org.osgi.service.prefs.Preferences.flush" is used instead of the deprecated "org.eclipse.core.runtime.Plugin.savePluginPreferences".
 
 
* [[Predicate_variables|Predicate variables extension]]
 
:Added support for predicate variables in the AST library.
 
 
* [[Generated Model Elements | Generated elements]]
 
:In the previous release, it was possible to mark an Event-B machine/context as generated, in order to prevent users from inadvertently modifying it.
 
:In this release, more fine-grained "read only" restrictions are enforced and any internal element may be tagged as generated (org.eventb.core.generated="true").
 
 
== Requirements ==
 
* It is recommended to run the Rodin platform with a Java 1.5 Runtime Environment.
 
* Only a 32-bit version of the Rodin platform is provided. Some optional libraries dedicated to 32-bit support may be required in order to run it on a 64-bit OS. Moreover, you will have to install a 32-bit Java Virtual Machine (JVM), and then to set the -vm option to make sure that Rodin is run with the correct JVM.
 
:''eg.'' <tt>/usr/local/rodin/rodin -vm /usr/lib/jvm/ia32-java-1.5.0-sun/bin/java</tt> (You have to adjust paths to your system.)
 
 
== External plug-ins ==
 
{{TODO | Describe here the available plug-ins, and the supported versions for this release.}}
 
* [[Decomposition_Release_History|Decomposition Plug-in 1.0]]
 
 
== Downloading ==
 
{{TODO | Add here a link to download the platform.}}
 
 
== Fixed Bugs ==
 
{{TODO | Add here a list of the fixed bugs.}}
 
 
== Known Issues ==
 
* Early releases of XULRunner 1.9.1 may cause an SWT exception that prevents from opening an editor (as well as any browser-based ui component). More recent releases fix this bug (works fine with xulrunner-1.9.1.7). Alternatively, it is possible to specify XULRunner path to point to 1.9.0: edit "rodin.ini" and add the following line:
 
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.14
 
where "/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.14" must be replaced with your actual XULRunner 1.9.0 install directory.
 
 
* Using Rodin on GNOME desktop may result in a situation where buttons lock windows. To avoid this situation, it is needed to launch Rodin with
 
GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 /path_to_rodin/rodin
 
It's a GTK bug, referenced for Eclipse at [[https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=291257]]<br />See also [[Gnome and broken buttons]].
 
 
* A warning like the following one is displayed to the standard output when platform starts on GNOME desktop:
 
(rodin:17254): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times
 
It's a GNOME bug. Information found there: [[https://issues.foresightlinux.org/browse/FL-2333]]
 
 
* The error log shows the following problem:
 
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: The bundle could not be resolved. Reason: Missing Constraint: Import-Package: org.eclipse.equinox.internal.util.event; version="1.0.0"
 
at org.eclipse.osgi.framework.internal.core.AbstractBundle.getResolverError(AbstractBundle.java:1313)
 
...
 
It's an Eclipse 3.5 bug. Information found there: [[http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&goto=131264&S=00746ff4ca25d6bd09d287e97ead74ff]]
 
 
* The list of the currently open bugs is given below:
 
{{TODO | Add here a link to the SourceForge Bugs page, after filtering bugs (Assignee Any, Status Open, Category Any, Group 1.2).}}
