Release Notes: Allows you to use a custom handler for Definition Files parsing in the Editor. Completely decouples the extension manager mechanism and the loading of common extensions from the loading of specific extensions for the Editor or the Server. Improves loading time performance for Editor and Embed Client. Allows you to customize maps projection in extensions. Improved performance for horizontal Map projections. The DataProvider XML configuration file format has been simplified.


Release Notes: This version has no changes since the previous version, apart from the important fact that the XML configuration files and their associated DTDs, all the example files (including example source code files), and the demos, are now distributed under a modified BSD license (which is compatible with the GPL v2). The project is still distributed under a GPL v2 license, but putting those configuration files under the less restrictive modified BSD license allows users to use these files more freely.


Release Notes: This is the final release in the 0.49 cycle. It adds many new features and bugfixes to the previous version. The major highlights are: the DataProvider framework, simplification and new UI properties supported in the synth2 Look & Feel definition language, and various fixes and features suggested by users.


Release Notes: This release fixes a major bug in the previous version that appeared when launching the Editor, Server, or Client in certain configurations. This bug was not manifesting in the context of an IDE, but it prevented starting the components in a normal standalone mode.


Release Notes: This version adds a lot of options and configuration possibilitities to the Data Provider, and fixes a lot of cases where the use of Data Providers in the Embedded Client could lead to exceptions in the Client side. The expressionJ library has been bumped to 0.3.4, adding a lot of options for expressions, including global constants and new mathematical functions.


Release Notes: This version adds the new EmbedClient module, which is a generic user application with a minimal graphical user interface, contrary to the default GUI client provided in the project. The EmbedClient module is also much more configurable. For example, it is possible to connect it at runtime to an arbitrary number of DataProviders, which can feed the Client UA any number of data items. An option was added when reading scenarios to allow you to skip unused events at the beginning. The pause feature now works.


Release Notes: This version simplifies the synth2 Look & Feel XML configuration file syntax and adds a lot of features to it. It also further enhances the editor with the ability to cut, copy, paste, and delete by using the Ctrl and Super keys. An active grid feature was also added.
