2007/10/06 - Nightly product builds disabled until further notice

We are currently in the process of updating our automated build system to make it more flexible and easier to use. As a result, the nightly products builds are not updated until we get around to update the affected parts as well. On the bright side, the nightly plugin builds now also contain software metrics for TTCN-3, intraprocedual control-flow graph and call graph visualization and our integration plug-in for the Danet TTCN-3 compiler. Note: the installation procedure has changed slightly due to additional dependencies. A screencast has been uploaded that demonstrates the changed procedure.

2007/10/05 - Jira updated to 3.11

2007/09/28 - Internet connection was down, now up again

Yesterday and today, our Internet connection was interrupted. The cable has been repaired and everything should be operational again.

2007/09/12 - Transition of TRex to Eclipse 3.3

There was some silence in the news section of this web page: this is no indication that TRex is not maintained anymore, but instead we are busy working on the sources, e.g. adding further refactorings and a pluggable integration of external compilers. The new features can now be previewed with the latest nightly builds and by looking at the trunk of the SVN repository. The source transition to 3.3 is not complete yet, however, every compatibility of recent nightly builds with Eclipse 3.2 is purely coincidental as we use Eclipse 3.3 features already. Thus, you are strongly advised to use only Eclipse 3.3 with recent nightly builds!

2007/01/17 - Server shutdown on 2007/01/23

2007/01/15 - Still some server problems

From time to time, our JIRA bug tracking system still seems to deny service. We are currently investigating this.

2007/01/10 - Server problems (hopefully) resolved

The TRex server problems of the last weeks are hopefully resolved now. No data was lost. However, we took this as an occasion to move the link to our JIRA bug tracking system from the bar on top of each page to the navigation on the right hand side of each page. Jira has been updated to 3.7.1.
