Compatibility: Capella 6.1.0

What's new

The Team for Capella 6.1.0 maintenance release brings several major changes (compared to Team for Capella 6.0.0):

• Compatibility with Capella 6.1.0
• UX enhancements
  • A new option is available in Import model from remote repository wizard to configure the override strategy when the imported project already exists in the workspace or on the file system.
  • The Merge strategy of the export wizard has been improved to handle the representations (diagram and tables) and their content.
    • The identity and commit history is now also kept for those elements.
    • Additional fixes have been done to minimize differences and avoid to do an export commit when there is no change to send to the server.
  • Libraries can now be managed on a connected project : references to shared libraries can now be added or removed.
  • The Commit History view no more displays the changes of wizards and technical commits.
    • The number of new/modified/deleted objects is displays instead.
    • Contrary to commits done by the save actions, those commits have a description which is automatically filled by the client and which contains the impacted project or resource name and begins with one of the following tags: [Export], [Delete], [Maintenance], [User Profile], [Import], [Dump].
  • After the use of the Dump wizard, a manual refresh of the project in the Project Explorer is no more required to see the all the result files.
  • The Collaborative Session Details properties page now displays the lock owners.
• Packaging, installation and deployment
  
  • Scheduler
    • The targeted Jenkins version has been updated from LTS version 2.332.3 to LTS version 2.375.3.
      • This brings several important security fixes and also notable changes as documented in the LTS release notes.
    • The Linux bundle Scheduler jobs have been improved to avoid permissions issues.
    • The Project - Automatic Import and push to Git - Template Windows and Linux job templates have been improved to work on a branch with no CommitHistory.txt file.
• Server changes
  • It is now possible to start/stop a single repository (either static or dynamic) without having to start/stop the whole server.
    • A Server - Start repository job has been added in default Scheduler jobs.
  • The Server packaging has been reworked to keep only necessary and non-ui plugins.
• Tools
• Importer
  • The timezone -from and -to parameters of the Importer application are now able to handle the timezone in the given timestamps.
  • It is now possible to compute impacted representation for each commit with the use of -computeImpactedRepresentationsForCommitHistoryChanges true when changes are included (-includeCommitHistoryChanges true) in the commit history extraction done by the Importer application.
  • In order to improve performances and reduce noise, the commit history changes are no more extracted for commits which corresponds to wizards and technical commits.
• Exporter
  • The Export application Merge strategy has been improved to better configure Diff/Merge and have a consistent behavior compared to the Export model to remote repository wizard.

More details can be found in the documentation.

Important 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.

Note: This issue is not specific to Eclipse.

This version also introduces several fixes:

• Remote images used in diagrams and Rich Text descriptions can now be displayed by other users
• Frozen diagrams no more react to reception of remote connection bendpoints changes.
• Deadlock/Freeze scenario corrected during save with several opened diagrams
• Better management of invalid values for -from/-to parameter of the Importer application
