VLE-0.8

Windows package

 * cmake (>= 2.8) : install CMake in the default path (C:\Program Files\CMake 2.8 for instance) add add the path to the environment variable PATH for all users or for the current user.
 * Mingw32 5.x.x (>= 5.x.x): install the MinGW compiler in the default path (c:\mingw for instance) and use the Candidate version. To enable the compiler, you must add the installation path in the MinGW environment variable PATH. You access these variables in the properties menu of the workstation icon, in advanced tab and select the button Environment Variables. Change the environment variable Path by adding c:\mingw\bin in the front of the line. For instance, for a classical Win32 installation:
 * VLE (approximately 105 MB). Install VLE in the default path (c:\program files\vle 0.8.9, 600 MB).

GNU/Linux

 * Install the dependencies of VLE:
 * Tools: cmake (>= 2.6), make, gcc and g++ (optionally doxygen).
 * Libraries: libxml2 (>= 2.6), libgtkmm (>= 2.4), libglademm (>= 2.4), libcairomm (>= 1.0), libgtksourceviewmm (>= 2.0.2), boost (>= 1.34 with boost-serialization, boost-date-time, boost-filesystem, boost-test and boost-regex). For example, under Debian GNU/Linux or Ubuntu:

GNU/Linux binary package
'Be careful, only for Linux distribution with Boost 1.34. For newer version of Boost, use VLE source installation.'


 * Debian GNU/Linux / Ubuntu Linux


 * RedHat / Fedora / Mandriva

Changelog

 * project:
 * Switch to the package system.
 * Add the Gettext functionality.
 * Update the soversion of dynamic libraries: (libvleutils.so.0.8 to libvleutils-0.8.so.0).
 * To simplify the source, we add the boost::filesystem (and boost::system for Boost >= 1.35) to the vle dependencies and we remove all references to the Glib fileutils functions.
 * To manage the date correctly, we append the boost::date_time library to the vle dependencies.
 * Remove Assert and Throw macros from the API to remove conflict with the C API of scripting language like Python.
 * Remove the libxml++ dependency and replace it with the libxml2.
 * Update the SaxParser with the new libxml2 sax parser.
 * Move the configuration from the host.xml file to the vle.conf.
 * Add cross compilation system:
 * update all API with the Win32 export symbols methods __delspec(dllexport) and __delspec(dllimport) to allow the use of new compiler and cross compilation.
 * vle:
 * Update the path management in VLE:
 * Remove all environment variables: VLE_SIMULATOR_PATH, VLE_OOV_PATH, VLE_MODEL_PATH. Replace these variables by a new one: VLE_HOME. This variable defines the home of models, simulators, packages and other plug-ins of VLE. If this variable is not defined, the $HOME/.vle or %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%/vle is used.
 * Remove optional path and program option from vle, eov, etc.
 * Add the packaging system:
 * Add packages functions in utils::Path class to manage the directories of packages in the VLE_HOME path.
 * Add a Package class to list the available package in VLE_HOME, create a new empty package, configure, build and install package.
 * Reduce the number of class to manage the command line interface.
 * Add the -P or --package parameter to the command line interface to select current package to edit.
 * Add depends between package with 'package' attribute into the vpz dynamic element. It allows to make link from a package to a another dynamics of a another package.
 * Change the VPZ format: add a 'package' attribute into the vpz dynamic element.
 * Break API of vle::devs::Dynamics classes by changing constructors.
 * Change the VPZ format: replace the #PCDATA by vle::value in the vpz format and build a new DTD (vle-0.8.0.dtd).
 * Add a 'begin' attribute into the vpz tag 'experiment' to start the simulation at any time. Update the DTD (vle-0.8.0.dtd) with this new attribute.
 * Update the MatrixTranslator with value instead of XML.
 * Add a Julian date class into libutils to convert string, double into year, month, day, hour, minutes, seconds.
 * Remove the libvledata library, no user, old code and perhaps a problem of license.
 * Remove the Simpson class in libvleutils library. Use GSL or Boost instead.
 * The routing of external events follows an algorithm based on routing table and cache.
 * Add a new Debug system.
 * Update the API of devs::Executive.
 * extension:
 * Update difference equation (see. changelog).
 * Add the finite state automata extension with Moore, Mealy, FDDevs and StateShart formalism.
 * Add the decision, an extension to build a graph of activities based on temporal, precedence and conditional constraints.
 * Add debug system for extension.
 * manager:
 * Store combinations inputs of experimentales frames into Manager classes. User can access to the condition produce by ExperimentGenerator.
 * gvle:
 * Big update, see changelog for the details.
 * New conditions plug-ins management.
 * New outputs plug-ins management.
 * New modeling plug-ins management.
 * Merge all Gtk::Window into an only Gtk::Window.
 * Update GVLE to manage source code of VLE packages.
 * Add the Gtksourceviewmm library to show text, c++, cmake files.
 * oov:
 * SimpleFile, the super class of txt, rdata, csv plug-ins, can now use the standard output and error and can be configured to select localized value.
 * Update oov plug-ins parametrization function from XML to value.
