Start of 2.5.x

Postby Giovanni » Sat Jan 28, 2012 8:08 pm

Hi,

The trunk is now reopened for development and is marked as version 2.5.0.

2.4.0 has been forked and will probably be released next week, I have to work on commercial licenses first, the current ones are too complicated, too many options, I learned modularity and configuration options are not good in licenses...

About 2.5.x I wish to proceed a bit differently, 2.3.x has been somehow painfully, too many broad changes and many little things left unfinished until the very end, it ended up taking too much time because all the rework cycles, for example, if you add a line in halconf.h then you have to update ALL of them and that takes time and adds errors (I don't even remember how many times I had to realign all the chconf.h, mcuconf.h and halconf.h...). My idea is to make more focused changes and keep development versions as "finished" as possible, developments will be done mainly in branches and merged after 100% completion.

Giovanni
