New Features:

- This release adds support for containerised drivers in BNCS V6.0.  Refer to the updated documentation for more details.

 

Breaking Changes:

- Single character command line arguments have been removed from DefaultOptions in favour of more descriptive multi-character arguments.  This should eliminate conflicts in argument naming.

- DDK now depends on BNCS.Config external NuGet package

 

Bug Fixes:

- DDK-102 - GUI allows read-only parameter values to be set

- DDK-145 - Failed to update parameter value: Unprocessable Entity

- DDK-158 - DDK web-UI: "Driver is broken....but which one?"

- DDK-73 - Fix Bendy xds/cs

- DDK-112: Make handling of IW messages more synchronous to ensure strictly ordered revertives

 

Known Issues:

- BST-2049: DeviceType only has readonly and no access field

- BST-2057: No support for multiple device states

- BST-2060 – There is currently no support for custom elements & attributes in device types.  All issues around conformity of device types are being investigated for a future release.

- GRD & GPI – There is currently no support for GRD & GPI messages within the DDK.  As the use of these messages is not now encouraged for new development, the plan is to provide minimal passthrough support for these messages for drivers that still need to interact with legacy systems that use them.
