1 Changes between version 5.3.3 and 5.4.0 of Scilab
2 =================================================
8 * Thanks to this new feature, Scilab confirms its usuability and its strong
9 user-oriented approach. Scilab Desktop is the new concept behind Scilab
10 window management taking advantage of advanced Flexdock features.
11 Out of the box, Scilab is now able to save all windows layouts including the
12 help browser, the variable browser, the command history, Scinotes and Xcos.
13 Through this major improvement, position and size of all the windows will
14 be preserved from a session to an other.
16 In this context, a file browser component has been developped and fully
17 integrated in Scilab Desktop and all other components have been improved
18 to provide the best user experience for Scilab's users.
20 Scilab Desktop provides various predefined layouts:
21 - Simple The standard Scilab console
22 => Scilab 5.3.3 (and previous versions) defaults.
23 - Integrated The variable browser, the history browser and the file browser
24 the console are opened by default and combined around Scilab's
25 Console to provide an ergonomic working environment
26 => Scilab 5.4.0 defaults
32 * Version 5.4.0 introduces XML management features. It allows easy access to
33 XML files, validation and writing.
35 - XMLObjects - Describe the properties of the different XML objects
36 - xmlAddNs - Add a namespace to a XML Element
37 - xmlClose - Close a XML document
38 - xmlDTD - Create a XML DTD object
39 - xmlDocument - Create a new XML document
40 - xmlDump - Dump a XML object
41 - xmlElement - Create a new XML element
42 - xmlFormat - Format a Scilab variable into XML
43 - xmlGetNsByHref - Get a namespace by its href
44 - xmlGetNsByPrefix - Get a namespace by prefix
45 - xmlGetOpenStreams - Get all open XML documents or all open XML Validation files.
46 - xmlNs - Create a new XML Namespace
47 - xmlRead - Read a XML stream from a local or distant file
48 - xmlReadStr - Read a XML tree from a string
49 - xmlRelaxNG - Create a XML Relax NG object
50 - xmlSchema - Create a XML Schema object
51 - xmlValidate - Validate a document in using a DTD, a Relax NG or a Schema.
52 - xmlWrite - Write a XML document in a file
53 - xmlXPath - Make an XPath query on a XML document
54 - xmlIsValidObject - Test the existence of an XML object
56 These features have been developped in the context of the OASIS R&D project.

252 The goal of this module is to provide functions to check the
253 behavior of some other functions, for example in unit tests.
254 We emphasize the use of consistent tools for testing numerical
255 issues, with the goal of testing numerical algorithms more easily.
256 In particular, we provide a comparison function for two floating
257 point numbers, which allows to check that two numbers are
258 "numerically almost equal", i.e. that the relative error is small.
