What's New in Rodin 2.3?

  • General Interface
Memory performance improvement: projects now require less memory to build (some projects that required 1200 Mo now build with less than 512 Mo).
  • Modelling
Warnings are produced by the builder when unknown configurations are encountered. It helps knowing which plug-ins are missing when a build fails.
Error is produced by the builder when no known configuration is found for a file.
  • Proving
Advanced Profile Customisation: a tactic profile can now be a parameterization of a tactic (timeout, ...), or a combination of tactics and profiles (see [1] at the bottom of the page).
NOTE: this new feature involves internal changes in preference storage; these changes are backward compatible (one can reuse tactic preferences from Rodin 2.2.x in Rodin 2.3) but NOT forward compatible: tactic preferences from Rodin 2.3 cannot be reused with Rodin less than 2.3. Hence the necessity to backup your workspaces (consider you cannot switch back your workspace and exported projects to Rodin < 2.3 after using them with Rodin 2.3).
New rules implemented, concerning membership in goal, function overridden by maplet (auto), EQL_LR applied at a single position (manual), Generalised Modus Ponens (auto)
  • Changes for plugin-developers
switch to Eclipse 3.7
new extension points are available to contribute tactic parameterizers (org.eventb.core.seqprover/schema/tacticParameterizers.exsd) and tactic combinators (org.eventb.core.seqprover/schema/tacticCombinators.exsd).

Requirements

  • Configuration
    • Only a 32-bit version of the Rodin platform is provided for PCs
    • Only a 64-bit version of the Rodin platform is provided for MAC
  • You need to have a Java JRE (6.0 or later) installed on your computer. The Rodin product will not work with a previous version.
  • To enhance your proving experience, the eclipse font settings (size, aspect...) are available from the preferences (General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts > Rodin). These settings allow you to modify the properties set on the Event-B Keyboard Text Font which is used in many views of the Proving UI. However, to enjoy these functionnalities, you need to install the Brave Sans Mono font on your system. You can download this font from the link here.
  • Linux: the internal browser does not work with xulrunner-2.0 (for instance, it causes the welcome page to display a link instead of a html page); xulrunner-1.9.x must be installed.

Installing

Upgrading from Rodin 2.2.x

Use rodin-2.3-repo.zip, uncheck "contact all update sites" (because the new version of Eclipse is already included in the archive).

  • download archive rodin-2.3-repo.zip
  • launch Rodin 2.2.x
  • Help > Install New Software... > Add... > enter a name (for instance "Rodin 2.3") then
Archive... > select the rodin-2.3-repo.zip archive
Mac users may have to use Local... then point to archive root directory, in case the archive was automatically unzipped
  • set options in the bottom of the page:
  • check
    • "Show only the latest versions of available software"
    • "Hide items that are already installed"
  • uncheck
    • "Group items by category"
    • "Contact all update sites..."
the central area should now list many entries
  • select "Rodin Platform", click "Next"
a message informs "Your original request has been modified. See the details."
"Rodin Platform" is already installed, so an update will be performed instead.
  • click Next, accept license, finish and restart

Disclaimer

Since Rodin is continuously maintained, several unsoundness bugs which have been encountered were investigated and fixed. However, despite the total commitment of our teams to insure the soundness of the platform, some unexpected and unknown soundness issues could remain. We would be grateful if you would report these issues to the development mailing list.
