when is the next copperspice release (post 1.5.2) planned

Post by marlowa »

According to the timeline at https://www.copperspice.com/docs/cs_ove ... eline.html, version 1.6 was planned in February 2019. It's been quiet for a while. I am waiting for a new release of copperspice and doxypress so that I can do some doxypress testing. Is there an ETA please?

CopperSpice version 1.6 has been in development for several months. This update will add a great deal of new functionality to almost all of the libraries. The timeline was recently updated to reflect the status of the project as of May 2019. To see the current progress of CopperSpice please visit github. The CS 1.6 branch has the name "harfbuzz" since we have updated CopperSpice to use a very new version of this text shaping library.

The current branch will build on all supported platforms. We are making a few minor changes to CsMultimedia and one more change to text shaping. We anticipate this branch will be merged with the main branch next week. We appreciate your interest and look forward to your testing CS and DoxyPress.

We are happy to announce that CopperSpice 1.5.3 stable will be released within the next two weeks along with updated versions of DoxyPress and KitchenSink. By the end of August we will be releasing CopperSpice 1.6.0.
