AWIPS 20.3.2-0.3 is a beta release of CAVE. We have updates for all installation options of CAVE. The biggest improvement with this release are updated installers for both Mac and Windows -- CAVE no longer requires System or User Environment changes to run!

Not all functionality is available yet, but we wanted to get something out there for people to start playing with and testing. This release is a CAVE only release, with us at Unidata running a version 20.3.2 public EDEX (edex-beta.unidata.ucar.edu) that you can connect to.

ℹ️ We will still have our version 18.* public EDEX up and available for the foreseeable future, but the version of CAVE you are running has to match the version of EDEX it's connected to.

Updates for all Operating Systems:

  • Full support of IPv6 connections
  • Update City Map names density and sizing to be more similar to v18
  • Restore Resource Stack default display behavior to mirror v18 (right click toggle between product, date, maps)
  • Added new menu item HRRR --> Composite Reflectivity
  • Restore Warngen functionality for selecting multiple items in the product list (mirroring v18)
  • Two panel view updated to side-by-side instead of top/bottom
  • Remove Hawaii Sector Satellite menus (now found in GOES West Full Disk)

  Mac

  • Improve installer to completely package and bundle Python (as well as Java)
    • This means CAVE no longer alters the System or User Environment at all!

  Windows

  • Improve installer to completely package and bundle Python (as well as Java)
    • This means CAVE no longer alters the System or User Environment at all!

Functionality/Reporting

This is a beta release, so we are aware that not all functionality is working as expected. We ask you to please be aware of this and have similar expectations. One noteworthy deficiency we are aware of is the radar menu has not been updated yet to reflect what is in version 18. If you come across issues/bugs/missing functionality, we also encourage you to report it using this short form.
