New in 4DIAC 1.5.0 RC2 (Feb 12, 2014)
- This second release candidate improves syntax highlighting in the new ST editor, fixes several issues in the ECC and in the application editor, and adds more tests and automatic test coverage assessment in FORTE.
New in 4DIAC 1.5.0 RC1 (Feb 5, 2014)
- The main new features of this preview release are a new example system, improved management of the monitored systems, syntax highlighting in ST algorithm editors, improved boot-file creation, and many bugfixes, increasing the overall stability.
New in 4DIAC 1.4.2 (Nov 21, 2013)
- This release adds a set of bugfixes to 4DIAC-IDE (6) and FORTE (4).
New in 4DIAC 1.4.1 (Oct 23, 2013)
- This release provides a set of bugfixes to 4DIAC-IDE (10) and FORTE (2).
New in 4DIAC 1.4 (Sep 20, 2013)
- The main contribution of this release is the improvement of the overall stability and usability of 4DIAC-IDE and FORTE.
- All in all, this release incorporates the fixes and implementations of more than 84 issues.
- Additionally, it enhances support for the generic data types (i.e., ANY_INT, ANY_ELEMENTARY, etc.).
- The biggest news, though, is that the 4DIAC framework now supports all of the IEC 61131-3 Functions and Function Blocks as IEC 61499 Function Blocks.
- Of course, the IEC 61131-3 Functions are also available for use in Structured Text algorithms.
New in 4DIAC 1.3.3 (Jul 26, 2013)
- A critical memory error was found in the FORTE runtime, prompting this third maintenance release for 1.3 providing a set of bugfixes to 4DIAC-IDE (5) and FORTE (2).
New in 4DIAC 1.3.2 (Apr 23, 2013)
- This is the the second maintenance release for 1.3, providing a set of bugfixes to 4DIAC-IDE (5) and FORTE (2).
New in 4DIAC 1.3.1 (Mar 19, 2013)
- This first maintenance release for 4DIAC 1.3 provides a large set of bugfixes to 4DIAC-IDE (12) and FORTE (2).
New in 4DIAC 1.3 (Feb 25, 2013)
- This is a combined release of all current 4DIAC projects.
- The major changes and improvements of 4DIAC-IDE are: simplified support to create boot projects, improvements in subapplication creation and usage, and the first support to monitor FBs inside sub-applications.
- The major changes and improvements for FORTE are: B&R POWERLINK support, support for constant values at ANY interface elements, and compile-time reduction for modules with a lot of FBs.
