• Fixed the documentation of the methods FGPropertyNode.get_double_value and FGPropertyNode.set_double_value (PR #1048 and issue #922).
• Made the Python module compatible with NumPy 2.0 (PR #1107)

Aeromatic++

• Fixed a typo in a message printed in the console by aeromatic++ (PR #1002)
• Fixed the headers so that aeromatic++ can also be compiled with VS2015 (PR #1020)

Developer

• The CMake target libJSBSim now includes the list of the headers it uses for cross reference in other CMake files (PR #1022).
• Some maintenance / minor changes have been done (see PR #1031 and PR #1050 for details).

Changelog

User

• The license of libexpat is now included in the Windows installer and in the Python wheels.
• Input sockets that were broken on Windows have been fixed. ### Python module
• The Python script JSBSim has been renamed JSBSim.py and now has the same features than the binary executable JSBSim.exe.
• Fixed the data folders that are installed along with the Python module: some aircraft sub-directories System and Engines were missing in the previous release (issue #687)
• Python wheels for MacOSX are now provided as universal binaries for Python >=3.8 which allows using these binary wheels with Apple Silicon chips.
• Python wheels for Python 3.11 are now available.
• JSBSim Python module is now installed under a single folder including the licenses and the aircraft data. In the previous release, the files were scattered among several folders. This allows a cleaner installation and removal (PR #755).
• Type hints are now provided along with JSBSim Python module (as per PEP 561 and PR #756).
• Usage of uninitialized instances of JSBSim classes now throws an exception to avoid a crash of the Python interpreter.

• Some internal methods are no longer accessible. Their names were prepended by the double underscore __ which according to Python programming guidelines are meant to be private methods. So you were warned ! ### MATLAB S-Function
• By default, the S-Function is now compiled using the flag JSBSIM_STATIC_LINK since JSBSim is supplied as a static library in the Windows installer (PR #735). ### Developer
• Removed the Messages feature as it was unused and was using a static member that could lead to a segmentation fault when using several instances of FGFDMExec (issue #666)
• Restored the automatic rebuild of the Python module that should occur when the headers included in jsbsim.pyx are modified.
• Replaced CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR by PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR to allow JSBSim being built using CMAKE FetchContent (issue #684)
• The dependency to the win32api module has been removed to build JSBSim Python module on Windows.
• Random number generation is now made using C++11 standard library. This allowed removing another static member (issue #666)
• Fixed a bug that prevented building JSBSim as a DLL using the MinGW compiler (issue #719)
• Unit tests have been added for the following classes: FGRealValue, FGParameter, FGParameterValue, FGCondition.

Changelog

User

This is the last release of JSBSim that supports Python 3.6. Python 3.6 has reached its end of life and is no longer supported by the Python Foundation (see PEP494). Please upgrade to Python 3.7 or higher. - Output files are now written in the current directory instead of being written in the aircraft folder (issue #337) - The uninstall of Python wheels now completely removes the directory structure that was created during the installation of the aircraft data. - A new exception TrimFailureException is now thrown when trim fails. This eases the detection of the trim failure (previously the exception message needed to be checked). - An exception is thrown when a latitude higher than 90 degrees is supplied to a <waypoint> control element (PR #536) - Fix the sign of the initial NED climb rate (property ic/gamma-deg) (PR #545) - JSBSim now checks malformed data in <table> elements. Anything different than numbers and spaces/tabs will be rejected. - Usage of <location> and <orientation> in engines is now officially dropped (PR #559, #561 and #563). These elements were deprecated long ago in favor of the corresponding elements <location> and <orientation> in thrusters. Therefore the code removed is no-op. - The computation of the initial rotation rates has been fixed (Issue #553). Previously, the rotation rates could be initialized with extremely high values when the vehicle was spawned over the Poles. And for a given set of initial conditions, the initial rotation rates could have different values depending on the initial latitude at which the vehicle was initialized. This now fixed. - [Windows] The script JSBSimSimulinkCompile.m that builds the MATLAB S-function is now set to be executed immediately after the installer JSBSim-setup.exe has been run and no longer need manual updates before being run. - The precision with which values are transmitted thru a socket can now be set via the attribute precision such as <output precision="8"> (PR #579)

Developer

• Added 2 new methods to FGFDMExec: SetOutputPath and GetOutputPath to specify the path to which the output files will be written.
• Python method FGFDMExec.set_root_dir() no longer alters the aircraft, engine and system paths. This is now the same behavior than its C++ counterpart FGFDMExec::SetRootDir.
• All JSBSim exceptions now inherit from JSBSim::BaseException. There still exist std::string exceptions thrown by JSBSim. Cleanup is still in progress.
• JSBSim no longer calls exit() or abort(). Exceptions are thrown instead. This gives the calling application an opportunity to gracefully recover.
• The MATLAB S-Function is now tested on Windows and MacOSX in addition to Linux.
• As distutils will be deprecated for Python 3.11, the migration to setuptools has been started. There are still a number of distutils features which have no equivalent to setuptools so this is work in progress.
• Improved the ability of setup.py to be executed on multiple platforms (removed some hardcoded statements)
• SGPropertyNode:getName() is no longer used as it has been dropped from the official SimGear library. This allows remaining compatible with FlightGear.
• When <input> and <output> elements are read from a file, JSBSim now checks that the file can be read before reading it, otherwise an exception is thrown. This avoids SEGFAULTs.

Changelog

User

• Fixed an error which prevented the equatorial and polar radii from <planet> to be propagated to the initial conditions.
• The header files needed to build the Matlab S-Function are now included in the Windows installer (issue #491).
• The planet radii in <planet> can now be specified by the tags <equatorial_radius> and <polar_radius> which are more self explanatory than <semimajor_axis> and <semiminor_axis> (which are still valid).
• The support of Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 has been dropped: JSBSim packages for this version of Ubuntu are no longer released.
• Improved the error messages returned by FGTable: the file name and line number where the error occurred are now printed.
• Check the number of <input> tags for flight controls such as <pure_gain> (issue #497). This avoids a crash when some or all <input> elements are missing.
• JSBSim now accepts 2 sign conventions for the cross product inertia (xy, xz, yz) in <mass_balance> (see PR #502). The sign convention is specified by the parameter negated_crossproduct_inertia which defaults to true for backward compatibility.
• The attribute negated_crossproduct_inertia is now specified in the JSBSim models that are using non zero cross product inertia.
• Turbine engines can now windmill even before they start (issue #494 and PR #509).
• Fixed a sign error in the computation of aero/h_b-mac-ft (PR #508 )
• Example scripts and aircraft data (as well as their engines and systems) are now included in the Python wheels (issue #337). They can be accessed from the Python module using the new function jsbsim.get_default_root_dir().

Developer

• Added a regression test for the <planet> feature.
• Expanded the unit test of FGTable. It now checks:
  • Initialization from XML
  • Table names using the prefix #
  • 3D tables
  • Error handling.
• Fixed a bug where FGTable instances were not untied from the property manager during their destruction. This could lead to segmentation faults when the property manager was later destroyed.
• Exceptions raised by FGTable are now instances of the TableException class.
• A minimum Python version is now specified for the binary wheels (currently 3.6 or higher).
• The Python script setup.py is no longer changing the current directory.
• The flag INSTALL_PYTHON_MODULE has been renamed INSTALL_JSBSIM_PYTHON_MODULE. The former being too generic, this avois potential name clashes with other modules.
• Two new scripts have been added in the admin folder:
  • XML_mass_update.py which allows automatically updating selected XML files in the aircraft data. It has avoided manual updates for the aircraft models which have been updated with the new XML attribute negated_crossproduct_inertia.
  • prepare_test_release.sh which modifies JSBSim to dry run a test release 0.99.xx to be published to TestPyPI
