Build and Linkage Changes

This list includes changes common to all of the the HOOPS 3D Application Framework components from version 15.0 to version 16.0. These changes could affect the performance of HOOPS/3dAF-based applications. For the change lists specific to a component, see that component's Release Notes.

  1. Debug bin directories (.NET 2005 only)

    Precompiled binary files that are built in the Debug configuration are now distributed in a separate directory. This applies to our .NET 2005 32- and 64-bit releases only. We have done this in order to maintain debug libraries for our CSharp-based tools. The binary directories are now named as follows:
