<ul>
<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> Sirius core and dialects metamodels have been extracted in new
<b>.model</b> plugins with minimum dependencies. Each new plugin is re-exported by the plugin which was the previous container of its metamodel. The base packages of the generated code has not been modified. Each API modification is listed in the corresponding plugin section. Additional dialect providers and extension providers might have to modify the path or references to Sirius .ecore and .genmodel files to reflect this change. The new plugins are:
<ul>
<li>
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.model</code>, re-exported by
<code>org.eclipse.sirius</code>
</li>
<li>
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.model</code>, re-exported by
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.diagram</code>
</li>
<li>
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.sequence.model</code>, re-exported by
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.sequence</code>
</li>
<li>
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.table.model</code>, re-exported by
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.table</code>
</li>
<li>
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.tree.model</code>, re-exported by
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.tree</code>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span class="label label-danger">Removed</span>
<b>The “Workflow” feature</b> has been removed . Workflow was experimental and to our knowledge not used in practice. This corresponds to the
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.workflow.*</code> and
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.editor.workflow</code> plug-ins.
</li>
<li><span class="label label-danger">Removed</span>
<b>The server parts which supported the Workflow feature</b> has been removed too. It was our first experiment in moving Sirius to the web, but this is now replaced by the newly published
<a href="https://www.eclipse.org/sirius/sirius-web.html">Sirius Web</a>. This corresponds to all the
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.server.*</code> plug-ins.
</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="sirius6.4.1">Changes in Sirius 6.4.1</h2>
<p>This is service release to fix two issues which were not detected in time for 6.4.0. The issues only impact a new API which was introduced in 6.4.0 (Bug 563117 -
<em>Copy format to existing/new diagram based on source to target semantic elements mapping</em>).
</p>
<p>Users who want to use this specific feature are encouraged to move to 6.4.1. The bugs have zero impact on the rest of Sirius so there is no need to update if you do not use this specific API.</p>
<h2 id="sirius6.4.0">Changes in Sirius 6.4.0</h2>
<p><span class="label label-info">Important</span> In order to reduce the maintenance burden of Sirius, we have decided to deprecate some older mechanisms for which there exist better alternatives. In Sirius 6.4.x all of these are still available, but they may be removed in future versions
<br/>(6.5 or 7.0) without further notice. If any of these planned removals are an issue for you, please
<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Sirius">open a ticket</a> so we can discuss options.
</p>
<p>The features which are deprecated starting from 6.4.0 are:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Exporting diagrams as GIF, BMP or PDF</b>. We will focus on PNG and JPG support for raster formats, and SVG for vector formats. If you need another image format, use an external tool to do the conversion.
</li>
<li>
<b>OCL expressions in VSMs (
<code>odesign</code> files)
</b>, as supported by the
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.common.ocl</code> plug-in. Use AQL expressions instead.
</li>
<li>
<b>The “Workflow” feature</b>. Workflow was experimental and to our knowledge not used in practice. This corresponds to the
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.workflow.*</code> and
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.editor.workflow</code> plug-ins.
</li>
<li>
<b>The server parts which supported the Workflow feature</b>. It was our first experiment in moving Sirius to the web, but this is now replaced by the newly published
<a href="https://www.eclipse.org/sirius/sirius-web.html">Sirius Web</a>. This corresponds to all the
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.server.*</code> plug-ins.
</li>
</ul>
<p>Also note that Sirius 6.4 is still compatible with Java 8, but we may move to Java 11 (LTS) in 2021. Eclipse 2020-09 already requires Java 11 to start, and Java 8 is quite old at this point. When we move to Java 11 we will drop support for Eclipse versions older than 2020-09. Again, if that is an issue for you, please open a ticket so we can discuss it.</p>
<p>Sirius 6.4 is officially supported on Eclipse 2020-03 to 2020-12, with Eclipse 2020-06 being the reference platform (where the tests are run and verified). It most likely works fine with any Eclipse from 2019-06 onward, but this is not guaranteed.</p>
<h3 id="UserVisibleChanges3">User-Visible Changes</h3>
<ul>
<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> With a non modeling project (a.k.a. legacy project), a “Invalid representations” section is displayed under the aird node. It is displayed only if a representation is invalid in the Sirius Session.</li>

<h3 id="SpecifierVisibleChanges2">Specifier-Visible Changes</h3>

<ul>
<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> A new method,
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.common.tools.api.util.CommandStackUtil.flushOperations(CommandStack)</code> has been added to flush the command stack. By default the
<code>CommandStack.flush()</code> “disposes all the commands in the stack”. Concretely, it removes the default context from the list of contexts of all operations. And operations without context, after this, are removed from history. In several cases, it is not enough. The
<code>ResourceUndoContext</code> must also be removed. This is what this method done to really removed operations from IOperationHistory. This method was already used in
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.business.internal.session.danalysis.DAnalysisSessionImpl</code>, it has been extracted from here.
</li>
<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> A new query,
<code>org.eclipse.sirius.common.tools.api.query.IllegalStateExceptionQuery.isAConnectionLostException()</code>, has been added to detect a specific kind of
<code>IllegalStateException</code>. In a collaborative environment, Obeo Designer Team Edition or Team For Capella for example, when the data is hosted on a server, the connection with the server can be lost. Sirius is not ready to handle this context. If Sirius tries to access to data, for example with an async refresh of the UI that needs information from data to be refreshed, a
<code>org.eclipse.net4j.util.lifecycle.LifecycleException</code> is thrown with the message
<code>"Not active: CDOTransactionImpl"</code>. This kind of errors is showed to the end-user instead of silently be caught. Indeed, in this situation, the UI should be refreshed with “blank data” instead of displaying an “incomprehensible” popup to the end-user. This new query allows to detect this specific case. The template to use it is:
</li>
</ul>
<pre><code>try {
//code to protect
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
if (new IllegalStateExceptionQuery(e).isAConnectionLostException()) {
// Generally catch silently the exception
} else {
throw e;

</li>
<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> A new method,
<code>layoutEditParts(List, IAdaptable, boolean)</code> has been added in

<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> A new method,

</li>
<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> A new API in

<h3 id="UserVisibleChanges4">User-Visible Changes</h3>
<ul>
<li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> In diagrams, the display of the label of the compartments has been improved. When there is not enough space to display the label of the compartment container or the contained compartments, it is displayed on multiple lines. Refer to
<a href="user/diagrams/Diagrams.html#Compartments">Compartment section</a> for more information.
</li>
</ul>
<p>A consequence is that the display of existing compartments in diagrams may be changed. When refreshing the existing diagram, the project may become dirty.</p>
<ul>
<li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> In Sirius 6.3.1, the behavior for the labels of operands, in sequence diagrams, has been changed. Since Sirius 6.3.1, they are drawn on top of the rest of the diagram elements so that they are always completely visible. Since Sirius 6.3.2, this is now the same for labels of combined fragment. Indeed, the problem was the same:</li>
</ul>
<img border="0" src="images/combined_fragment_label_before.png"/> With Sirius 6.3.2, the label is now on the top of execution:

<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> A new type of jump link has been added in Sirius 6.3.1. As reminder, a jump link is a way to graphically improve the way how 2 edges intersect.

<ul>
<li>The way we retrieved some views by using
<code>bot.viewByTitle</code> (like “Problems” or “Error Log”) may not work anymore. Use
<code>bot.viewByPartName</code> instead.
</li>
<li>

<code>org.eclipse.sirius.ui.tools.api.actions.export.ExportAction.createImageFiles</code>, do not open UI Dialogs anymore. It throws an
