Lingua Franca Nightly
Lingua Franca 0.9.0
v0.9.0 (2024-10-31)
Highlights
This release of Lingua Franca adds support for reusable and publishable packages, providing the necessary infrastructure to develop a community-driven ecosystem of Lingua Franca packages. The VS code extension now features an integrated package explorer, and the diagrams provide colored highlighting for selected diagram edges. Other new features include C support for a new hardware platform called Patmos, several minor syntax and API improvements, and a new Alpine-based default Docker image for Python. This release also includes numerous bug fixes, such as preventing hangs during timeouts, addressing issues in decentralized coordination, improving error handling, and fixing concurrency issues in the C runtime.
