Revision as of 09:51, 5 April 2019
Sirius 6.2.0 contains mostly internal changes, which are needed to enable moving Sirius to the web, but require API breaks. The APIs breakage which are in this version should not impact most users, thus the 6.2.0 version number instead of 7.0.0.
Availability
Sirius 6.2.0 was released on 2019-04-01 (tag v6.2.0, commit 7f3a84a511a17ef856c769519b751591168ec4f8). It is available from the following update sites:
-
http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/6.2.0/oxygen(Archive) -
http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/6.2.0/photon(Archive)
It is recommended you use the update-site matching the version of Eclipse you use to avoid potential issues at runtime.
The complete JUnit and SWTBot test suites used to validate Sirius are published along with all their dependencies in separate update-sites from the core, available at:
-
http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/6.2.0/oxygen/tests(Archive) -
http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/6.2.0/photon/tests(Archive)
