Thread: [Adobe-source-devel] ASL 1.0.42 Released

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

ASL 1.0.42 is now released. The windows built distributions have not  
been posted yet but Mat or I will get to them soon. There is a  
critical bug fix in this release for property model initializers. So  
if you are using property models and input cells, make sure you grab  
this release.

This will be my last ASL release as an Adobe employee. The Adobe  
Software Technology Lab is now a virtual organization. I will likely  
still keep a hand in guiding the progress of ASL and I'm certain it  
will continue to grow and improve. STLab was able to accomplish some  
amazing things. ASL being one externally visible artifact and the book  
<http://www.elementsofprogramming.com/book.html> being another. I want  
to thank the members of STLab, Foster Brereton, Mat Marcus, Paul  
McJones, and Alex Stepanov along with everyone who supported the lab  
over the years. We had a great run.

My personal e-mail is sean_parent <at> mac <dot> com. Messages to the  
forums and mailing lists will continue to reach me.

   ASL:

       - Property model library (Adam)

           Changed calculation logic so that when an interface cell is  
defined
           by a direct expression and by a relate clause, both  
expression are
           applied. Prior it was one or the other. For example:
           ---
           interface:
               x;
               y <== round(y);
           logic:
               relate {
                   x <== y;
                   y <== x;
               }
           ---
           When x is of higher priority, y will be evaluated as:
           ---
           y'  = x;
           y'' = round(y')
           ---
           This avoids having to replicate filters (self referential
           expression on an interface cell) in relate clauses.
           Note that if the expression defining y was not self  
referential,
           then the relate clause would be ignored. For example, if y  
were
           defined as:
           ---
           y <== 10;
           ---
           Then y would have the value of 10 regardless of the value  
of x.

       	- Fixed issue introduced in 1.0.41 with incorrect poison set  
being
       	    calculated for invariants.
	        - Reworked invariant cells they now behave more like output  
cells
	          and can be refered to in expressions.
	        - Updated the image_size example to demonstrate an ignored/ 
disabled
	          control (resample method when not resampling).
       - Some 64 bit fixes and cleanup.
       - Minor cleanup, performance improvements and bug fixes.
