Team for Capella 7.0.1_202601 (2026-01-26)

Compatibility: Capella 7.0.1

 

What's new

  • Compatibility with Capella 7.0.1
  • UX enhancements
    • When configured to use the Authorization Code flow with PKCE, the authentication process now utilizes the user’s external web browser. This replaces the previous internal login dialog in Capella, providing a more secure and familiar login experience.
    • The Success and Failure landing pages for the legacy Implicit Flow have been updated. They now share a consistent look and feel with the new Authentication Code Flow pages, ensuring a uniform user experience regardless of the chosen authentication method.
  • Packaging, installation and deployment
    • Move to Collaborative layer for Sirius 15.3.3.
    • Embedded Swagger UI has been updated from 5.20.1 (2025-03-10) to 5.31.0 (2025-12-11)
    • The targeted Jenkins version has been updated from LTS 2.440.3 (2024-04-17) to LTS version 2.528.3 (2025-12-10).
    • Addition of the plugin com.thalesgroup.mde.melody.collab.log.bridge in both server and client. This plugin introduces two new features:
      • enables JUL to SLF4J bridge to redirect logs logged with JUL to SLF4J/Logback,
      • adds a log listener to redirect all Eclipse/OSGI logs to SLF4J/Logback.
    • Some parameters can now be provided using Java system properties or environment variables, in addition to the previous method.
      • Environment variables override the arguments/properties values and Java system properties take precedence over both.
      • To ensure compatibility with operating systems that have strict naming conventions, the environment variable is looked up twice: first with the given property name, and then a second time with a modified version of the name (converted to upper case, with dots (.) replaced by underscore (_) and dashes (-) removed).
        • For example, both admin.server.jetty.ssl.keystore.passphrase and ADMIN_SERVER_JETTY_SSL_KEYSTORE_PASSPHRASE are accepted as environment variable to provide the parameter via environment variable.
      • Here is the list of impacted parameters:

 Note: Windows 10 users: Windows 10 Defender significantly slows down Eclipse, reason being Windows 10 Defender scanning the JAR files. The problem has been reported to Microsoft here. Until then, a workaround to this problem is to add Eclipse root directory to Windows 10 Defender's exclusion list, detailed steps are shared here. This is not just an Eclipse issue on Windows 10.

Rebuild on 2024-09-09

The Team for Capella 7.1.0 server bundle for Windows has been modified to include a slight modification of the license server job to avoid Eclipse Jetty logs to spam the console log depending on the Jenkins service configuration.

For servers deployed with Team for Capella 7.0.0 downloaded before September 09, 2024, the job batch command needs to be modified to add: --launcher.ini lic-server.ini
