5.6.0
Release Date
This release provides support for recodeable root components, and a range of library updates and bug fixes.
PraxisCORE
- Added
root:custom
(Custom root), a recodeable root type. This is part of moves to finish making everything recodeable. Using the@Driver
annotation on a proxy interface it's possible to drive the root and its contained graph of components from an external callback. See use of this in the code roots testsuite test - more info to follow. - Improved root delegate API and thread context, with some concurrency improvements and monotonic clock fixes that should benefit all root types. Ensure pending calls are handled when a root is terminated.
- Updated libP5X to 0.353.0-beta-4 and LWJGL 3.3.2, with fix for memory leak when stopping and restarting video pipelines.
- Updated Ivy to 2.5.1 (security update - fixes warning, although never exploitable in PraxisCORE code)
- Updated JNA to 5.13.0.
PraxisLIVE
- Updated base IDE to Apache NetBeans 17.
- Added container actions to the scene background popup menu - access to code editing for custom root, but also any actions exposed by roots or custom containers.
- Speed up project builds at UI side by ensuring UI poll is triggered on call receipt (response) rather than on timer.
- Ensure root annotations are set in graph build (eg. show all properties not being set on load).
