BIMserver 1.5.108

Developers release

This is the first public release that has strict plugin checking on by default. This will hopefully solve some plugin problems. This also means that plugins have to be built for a specific version of BIMserver, so expect less plugins to be available initially.

Attached files:
bimserverjar-1.5.108.jar: Run on your desktop (just double click)
bimserverwar-1.5.108.war: Run on a server (use Tomcat 8 / Jetty 9)

Release notes (since 1.5.101), only the biggest changes are listed, full list

• Geometry generation is improved for IfcOpeningElements and IfcGeometricCurveSet, only test Model and Design contexts, added IfcSweptDiskSolid path
• Fixed BufferOverflowException in setWrappedDoubleAttribute
• IFC GUIDs are now validated
• More information about bounds is stored, both on the Revisions, ConcreteRevision and GeometryInfo
• Added the ability to store lists within wrapped objects
• Object densities are now stored for geometry, this allows for faster viewers
• IFC4 bugfixes
• Finally fixed the performance problem for large lists of (complex) …
  objects.
• All sorts of changes to allow for faster geometry (vertex quantization, normal quantization, color quantization etc...)
• Store the geometry buffers in separate objects, so they are not all loaded at once (only the ones needed)
• Not updating the User object anymore on checkin, which allows for more concurrency during checkin
