Release Notes for OSATE 2.2.1
=============================

This release is based on Eclipse Mars.2 (4.5.2). OSATE requires Java 8.

Notable Changes:

* We have included the EMFTA tool for fault tree analysis (see Help text). The 
  existing export to OpenFTA has been removed
* OSATE now includes requirements specification language (ReqSpec) from our ALISA 
  project (see Help text)
* Implemented approved language errata:
  - Abstract features are allowed as mode transition triggers
  - Added property Reference_Time
  - Abstract features can reference classifiers in addition to prototypes:

        prototypes
          fp: feature;
          dt: data;
        features
          -- feature is the prototype actual
          f1: prototype fp;
          -- abstract feature referencing a data classifier
          f2: feature SomeDataType;
          -- abstract feature referencing a data prototype
          f3: feature dt;

* Added textual representation of instance models. Convert AADL instance model file 
  to text via action "Generate Textual Instance" in AADL Navigator context menu
* Added BIRT for report generation. An example report for requirements traceability
  is included: Action "Requirements Tracing" in context menu in the AADL Navigatior
  view, active for AADL packages, instance models, system requirements and system
  goals. The report sources are in plugin org.osate.reqtrace
* Unnecessary plugins were removed to reduce download size
* Updated Agree to version 2.1.3
* The underlying Eclipse version has been updated to Mars.2

Known Issues

* Using the AADL Property View to edit property values results in bad formatting
