What's New in Rodin X.X?
- General Interface
- Improved general platform performance. The build time has been decreased by about 40% on average since Rodin 2.0.
- See: Rodin Performances
- Modelling
- TODO
- Proving
- New Tactics, such as Negation Normal Form, Generalized Modus Ponens, Case distinction from implication.
- Changes for plugin-developers
- Proof storage has evolved with backward compatibility: it is transparent for common proof access (getting the proof tree/skeleton). However, for a plug-in that would access proofs using directly the database - which is highly discouraged, please note that IPRProofRule.getElementName() does no more contain a reasoner id, but instead a reference to a IPRReasoner, a newly introduced proof element type. See Proof Dependencies and Reasoner Conflicts.
- Signature: optionally, a reasoner may now implement the interface ISignatureReasoner. It is designed for those whose behaviour evolves during a session. A signature represents a single reasoner behaviour. When present, the signature is stored in proofs. These proofs are invalidated when the signature changes (detected at build time).
- External plug-ins can now contribute to the "Refine" action which produces a new component from an existing one. It replaces the former non extensible actions Refine and Extend.
Requirements
TODO: COPY REQUIREMENTS FROM PREVIOUS PAGES / VERIFY
TODO: Inform here of some specific system requirements (version of Java, etc).
- 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 2.1.x
Use rodin-2.2-repo.zip, check "contact all update sites" (because a new version of Eclipse is used).
Downloading
TODO: Add here a link to download the platform.
External plug-ins
TODO: Link to the external page for plug-ins
Link of the form:
{{:Rodin_Platform_2.2_External_Plug-ins}}
Fixed Bugs
TODO: Add here a list of the fixed bugs.
Known Issues
TODO: COPY KNOWN ISSUES FROM PREVIOUS PAGES / VERIFY
TODO: Add here a link to the SourceForge Bugs page, after filtering bugs (Assignee Any, Status Open, Category Any, Group 1.2).
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.
