New release of Umple 1.27

[Timothy Lethbridge]

Hi,

I recently completed the new release of Umple, including the Eclipse
plugin (following the directions sent to me by Vahdat, which are now at
https://github.com/umple/umple/wiki/BuildingEclipsePlugin ).

I would appreciate it if Vahdat and/or somebody else could please verify
that the Eclipse plugin works as they expect. If it works OK, I will
announce the release to the broader Umple user community.

Developers may need to run a first-build to bring in the new release,
otherwise you may encounter a build failure
ant -Dmyenv=$buildenv first-build

This release includes some fixes specifically requested by key users.

Release notes for Umple release 1.27.0

This release includes all updates to Umple From Late November 2017 to
January 12 2018, including:

Improvements to command-line debugging. Both errors compiling embedded
Java and stack traces when running generated systems now point to the
original Umple source.

Improvements to joint.js generation for class diagrams in UmpleOnline.

Refactors UmpleOnline with a new DataStore interface

Various bug fixes.

The Jars are as follows:

The umple-n.n.n-rrrr-hhhhhhhh,jar is the command line compiler
When you do a build a symbolic link is made on linux and mac calling this
umple.jar in the dist directory. The hhhhhhhh is the git commit, and the
rrrr is an incrementing count of the numer of commits to master.

For the latest Eclipse Plugin see
https://github.com/umple/umple/wiki/InstallEclipsePlugin
(usually released a day or two after each main release)

When you build Umple, you will also generate other jars including
umpledocs, to create the user manual; umplerun, a special tool for
simulation, umplesync, an an extended compiler used by Umpleonline.
