OpenFLUID-Builder

• Ability to display simulators and observers names instead of IDs when adding to model and monitoring

• Button for direct access to documentations associated to simulators (if available) #308

• Improvement of UI layout

OpenFLUID-DevStudio

• Parallel build option for wares #780

• Execution time for commands such as configure and build, displayed when the command is finished

• Improvement on the generation of simulators documentation, with ability to build it from DevStudio UI

• Improvement of UI layout #772

• Ambiguous keyboard shortcuts in Devstudio (Ctrl+Shift+B, Ctrl+B, Ctrl+G)

• Empty Git dialogs for status and log (depending on installed git version) #779

• Syntax highlighting may be uncorrect for fancy styled comments (e.g. lines beginning with //*) #663

Core API

• Add of utility classes to facilitate bindings with other languages or environments (such as R, Python, JavaScript, …)

Bindings

• Introduction of PyOpenFLUID package to manage OpenFLUID simulations from Python (technology preview, still under development)

• Introduction of OpenFLUIDjs module to manage OpenFLUID simulations from Node.js (technology preview, still under development)

• ROpenFLUID package to use new utility classes for bindings

• Add of primitives in ROpenFLUID to get the list of attributes of a units class, to get/set multiple spatial attributes at once, to get the list of parameters of a ware, to get/set multiple parameters at once for a ware #765, #766, #767, #768

Misc and Internals

• CI configurations (Travis, AppVeyor) #760, #781

• Homebrew cask file for Qt dependency

• Qt version set to latest LTS (5.9) on Windows systems #769

• CMake templates for DevStudio

• CSS for documentation layout to match new Doxygen versions #783

• CMake configuration of OpenFLUID source code for correct management of UI/not UI builds #708

• Cleaning of code and tests #720

• GCC 8 is not supported as it is not currently supported by at least one dependency (Qt). Distributions providing GCC 8 by default are not supported (e.g. Fedora 28)

• On Windows systems, applications usually crash at startup when several versions of OpenFLUID are installed #771
