[Modeling-users] Core / ZModeling v0.9pre8 released

[Sebastien B. <sbi...@us...>]

        Hi all,

  This release has a number of small enhancements you've probably
already heard about :)

  - loading a xml-model is now 5 to 6 times faster,

  - in "base" mode, the Python code generation now gathers all files
    that are overwritten by a regeneration of the code, leaving the
    business-logic in the main classes untouched; a dry-run mode has
    been added (both mdl_generate_python_code.py and the ZModeler
    support this).

  - The db-connection dictionaries stored in models can now be stored in
    a single file, making it simpler to ensure these sensitive
    informations are well protected.
    (cf. http://modeling.sourceforge.net/UserGuide/env-vars-core.html,
         and look at MDL_DB_CONNECTIONS_CFG)

  Next release (pre9) will add the PyModels. Than 0.9 will be at hand...
  (we still lack a one-page tutorial)

    Cheers,

-- S=E9bastien.
