SmartEiffel 2.3 released
The SmartEiffel team has announced the release of SmartEiffel 2.3 (downloads, version history).Changes include:
- Refinement of the new typing policy.
- A new class loading algorithm, which formalises the notions of cluster and subcluster. You can now have more than one class with the same name, and the system decides which one to use according to the "distance" between classes. This obsoletes the "rename.se" files.
- There is now a configuration directory, into which package maintainers can drop configuration files.
- The eiffeltest tool is included.
- The fictional type mark NONE is gone! Where you used to write {NONE}, you now just write {}.
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 is now supported as a back-end compiler.
- A Regular Expression library is included.

I love the new class loading algorithm, nothing more random than this especially when using third parties libraries providing the same class names and relatively at same distance from your code.
