Release Notes

Public

7.0.16.1944: Jan 26 2018

New

Windows GUI: much better responsiveness since lots of calls made in the main thread were removed. Clearly noticeable with distant servers (like Cloud).

New

Added support for Polarion 3.17.1+. The API changed at this version and our Polarion plugin was not compatible. Now we ship two versions. The old one (compatible until Polarion 3.17.1, and the new one, compatible from Polarion 3.17.1 and higher).

The plugins and instructions about how to install it can be found in the /client/plugins directory.

New

Windows GUI and Mac OS X GUI: Semantic diff engine now supports C# 7 language specification!

REMARK: Windows installer will now require .NET Framework 4.6 to be installed before proceeding any further.

Bug

Windows GUI: Fixed "An error occurred processing your request" when double clicking files in the pending changes view after a merge, when the status of those files was "Copied (new)".

Bug

Visual Studio Package: The issue tracker extensions did not work properly under the Visual Studio Package. A "File or assembly Newtonsoft.Json.Net20.dll cannot be found" exception was thrown. Now it's fixed.

Bug

Windows Installer: Recently we fixed troubles we had with Plastic SCM windows services startup when upgrading installed Plastic SCM version from a non-administrator user account. And we fixed it for Plastic SCM versions starting from release 7.0.16.1873. This means that users upgrading from - let's say - versions 7.0.16.1873 to 7.0.16.1912 won't be hit by such trouble.

We have fixed this issue too when the upgrade is done from a version minor than 7.0.16.1873.

This means that users upgrading from version 6.0.16.1873 to 7.0.16.1935 won't have troubles with Plastic SCM windows services.
