Neo Project and Dataclass Graph’s

We’ve added a fresh new feature to Neo – Graphs! There are now two separate visualizations: the Project Graph and the Dataclass Graph. Use them to quickly understand relationships, move nodes around, and jump directly to the corresponding editor/overview pages.

This first version focuses purely on viewing and exploring. It’s all about giving you a faster, more intuitive way to understand the big picture of your application.

Public API as Maven dependency

We have finalized how we will include our public Java API as Maven dependency in Ivy projects.
This dependency definition is required if you want to develop the Java part outside the Eclipse-based Pro Designer.

How do you get public API dependency using 13.1:

create a new project
run the latest project conversion, which will extend the pom.xml (project conversion only works if no parent is specified in the POM)

see migration notes

Audience

Java Developers

Value

use the Ivy Java API with any IDE
