Dinamica EGO 2.2 Release Notes

What is New

See the What is New section, for informations about the new features available in the current version.

Porting Notes

Windows XP Support Removed

The current Dinamica EGO version is not compatible with Windows XP. All other recent versions of the Windows operating system (Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Server 2008 R2) are supported.

Vensim Link Removed

The Vensim link was definitely removed. If you are using Calc Transition Matrix Using Vensim as part of our models, you should keep using version 2.0.10 of Dinamica EGO.

Discontinued Functors

Some deprecated functors were removed in this release:

Calc Transition Matrix Using Vensim,

Number Path,

Path,

Number Vensim Category Variable Set,

Number Vensim Transition Variable Matrix,

Select Path,

Select Vensim Category Variable Set,

Select Vensim Transition Variable Matrix,

Vensim Category Variable Set and

Vensim Transition Variable Matrix.

None of these functors has a replacement in the new version of Dinamica, but they are all related to Vensim link. Unless you are using the Vensim link, your models should not be affected.

If the model uses one of the functors not present in this release, it must be edited using Dinamica EGO version 2.0.10 and the offending functors replaced by their new equivalents, before loading the model using version 2.2.

Changes to Some Operators

Some operators were changed:

Calc Areas,

Calc Distance To Feature Map,

Calc Reciprocal Similarity Map,

Calculate Categorical Map,

Calculate Lookup Table,

Calculate Map,

Calculate Value,

Determine Weights of Evidence Coefficients,

Determine Weights of Evidence Correlation,

Extract Map Attributes,

Extract Map Layer,

For Each,

Insert Map Layer,

Load Categorical Map and

Load Map.

The proxy functor system automatically converts models using the old functor representation to its newest counterparts. The conversion is correct but might not be optimal.

Enforced Relationship between Muxes and Loops

The current version of Dinamica EGO no longer accepts Muxes to be placed inside container functors that are NOT loop controlers.

Unfortunately, when Muxes are placed inside such containers, they become meanless because they will always use the value from its initialization port and ignore the content from their feedback ports.

Dinamica EGO Guidebook

The Dinamica EGO Guidebook is no longer available as a PDF file. The Guidebook is now available as part of the online Wiki.
