What's new in version 4.6.1.1

  • Workflow Enhancements
    • New option Print Tree to file was added to the File menu of the Charts tab, to create a postscript file of the model tree.
    • New flag '-yes_to_all' was added to the Statemate command-line syntax, to avoid interactive dialogs during long operations. The '-yes_to_all' flag will enforce 'yes' to convert workarea or update files version when opening workarea, and to overwrite existing charts/files during check-out/import/export/backup/restore operations.
    • In the Advanced Query's Query by Attribute form, string '*' in the Name field will search for any attribute with the given value, and empty Name field will search for elements with no attributes at all (regardless of the given "value").

  • Check Model Enhancements
    • The Check-model used/affected tests were enhanced to accurately identify used/affected elements, when in/out data-flows carry compound elements.
    • The Check-model tests:
      C4106 "Data-Elements with Enumerated Value names"
      C3023 "Defined data elements that are used incorrectly"
      were enhanced to be reported even if the definition chart of the regarded element is not included in
      the profile, but charts using that element are in the profile.

  • Doors interface Enhancements
    • The activation of the DOORS interface was enhanced to support the DOORS "Use system usernames" login policy.
    • The DOORS bridge was enhanced to export the contents of an Information-Flow (consists of) into the "Object Info" attribute in DOORS.

  • Statemate Autosar Generator (SAG) Enhancements
    • SAG was enhanced to support buffered access to compound conditions that are used in ch(), tr(), fs() expressions, as it was for non-compound conditions.

  • Dataport Enhancements
    • A new dataport API was added to support check-in of charts and files:
      void stm_check_in_item(char *item_name,
                             char *ext, stm_boolean with_lock,
                             void (*error_func)(const char* msg),
                             int *status);
    • Two new API functions were added to handle locking of charts/files:
      void stm_lock_item(char *item_name,
                         char *ext,
                         void (*error_func)(const char* msg),
                         int *status);
      void stm_unlock_item(char *item_name,
                           char *ext,
                           void (*error_func)(const char* msg),
                           int *status);
