This release of the Dinamica EGO software introduces some improvements and addresses bugs:

(Compared to stable version 8.9.1):

• Symmetrical tasks are now allowed to modify objects captured by copy.

• The set of utilities used to report nested execution progress within a functor was re-implemented to be less error prone when used.

• Storing a shared_ptr for functors in WorkerSummary was stopped to prevent a crash during access.

• The use of mimalloc was disabled to workaround a bug in its library that causes an application crash.

(Compared to stable version 8.9.0):

• Fixed bug where checkTaskCancellation() could crash the application if incorrectly called outside a task.

(Compared to stable version 8.8.0):

The core updates focused heavily on performance enhancements, parallelization fixes, extensive progress reporting infrastructure, and improved string handling for generated bindings.

• Added a ReadOnlyTable to speed up Map Calculation using tables

• Fixed a problem where saved LookupTables couldn't be opened by the Load Table function

• Fixed an assertion error that occurred when removing many rows from a big table column due to a miscalculation of column free space

• Defined a new set of utilities to simplify the nesting of progress reports corresponding to functor execution
  • Code related to progress reporting was moved to specific source files
  • Existing code was updated to use these new features, and test cases were added

• Added progress reporting for map calculation (CalculateMap and CalculateCategoricalMap) and area calculation (CalcAreas)

• Integrated categorization calculation progress reporting into the Load Categorical Map functor
  • Included categorization when reporting execution progress for the CalculateCategoricalMap

• Changed the definition of TaskProgressReporter so that it receives the initial progress during the setup phase
  • This fixed a potential bug where initial progress might not be properly initialized if the number of tasks related to a functor changes during execution

• When calling intoSingleTaskProgressReporter(), the caller now has the responsibility for preparing the functor to receive progress notifications

• Improved documentation of the task progress reporters

• Fixed the initialization order of WorkerGroup variables

• Fixed an error related to “totalSize__” when using PARALLEL_FOR_EACH_COORDINATE() and its variations

• Made it possible to use iteration variables (“firstIndex_”, “lastIndexPastOne_”, and “indexRange_”) inside a FOR_EACH_IMAGE_COORDINATE()

• Changed the definition of “string_view.i” and the corresponding generated Java binding code to deal correctly with empty string_views

• Updated the version of “swing_view.i” to match the one provided by SWIG, copying the string_view only if it is not null-terminated

• Added comments to clarify that checking for zero-byte termination before calling NewStringUTF() could potentially cause an application page fault (and possibly crash)

• Added an option to Test::areFilesEqual() to control the outputting of differences between two files if their content differs

• Fixed regression by removing a declaration added from another branch

• Fixed a compilation error when using the fmt library version 12.0.0

GUI modifications focused on reliable window placement, persistence handling, and improved table rendering and messaging.

• Implemented fixes for the window position calculation performed by placeWindowBelowBounds()
  • Fixed behavior for environments with several screens
  • Fixed behavior where placement hides the window under the OS task bar in some extreme cases

• Refactored the definition of placeWindowBelowComponent() so that its behaviors can be used separately in other places

• Added an optional new parameter when showing message boxes to prevent the dialog from overlapping a certain area on the screen

• Changed integer representation in tables to use decimal notation instead of scientific notation
  • A numeric formatting change that was causing collateral issues was reverted, meaning the integer decimal formatting will be implemented specifically in TableUtils.CellRenderer

• Restored correct DinamicaCellEditor invocation (which was previously broken due to Object.class column type reporting)

• Added a utility method to check if a double value represents an exact integer

• Changed behavior to display the functor name when it is not visible in the sketch or when an alias hides its real name

• Improved carrier operation messages and removed confusing 'remap' terminology

• Prevented error message boxes displayed after validating a functor editor window from overlapping the editor that is being highlighted as the source of the error

• Fixed execution options insets and changed the highlight color of options to be more readable

• Fixed regressions between versions

• Added handling for failed perspective restoration when the persistence key is missing or invalid

• The current major application version is retrieved for the persistence key

• Ensured the docking view is updated when a panel is attached to the hierarchy
