Dear Reactis User:

We are pleased to announce the availability of Reactis V2012.2

Reactis V2012.2

New Simulink Support

• MATLAB R2012b.
• Simplified initialization mode.
• Initializing constant blocks with Workspace variables having a structure type.
• N-D lookup tables with mixed integer/double inputs and double outputs are natively supported.

Configuration Variable Sets

V2012.2 includes a new feature called configuration variable sets that lets you specify that one configuration variable depends on another. Recall that in Reactis, configuration variables are workspace variables that are tagged for Reactis to change in between tests but not during a test. Specifying different possibilities for calibration variables are a common use for configuration variables.

To motivate the need for the new configuration variable set feature, consider software for a configurable transmission that can control either a 4-speed transmission with gear ratio of 3.0 or a 5-speed transmission with a gear ratio of 3.5. In prior versions of Reactis you could specify that numGears is a configuration variable with possible values 4 and 5 and that gearRatio is a configuration variable with possible values 3.0 and 3.5. However, given such a specification, Reactis would generate tests with all possible numGears/gearRatio combinations: 4/3.0, 4/3.5, 5/3.0, 5/3.5.

With the new configuration variable set feature, you can specify that Reactis should test only the desired subset of configuration variable combinations: 4/3.0, 5/3.5.

Other Enhancements

• Faster model initialization.
• Performance improvements in the Reactis for C Plugin.
• Capability for administrator to disconnect user from license manager in order to free license.

You may download the patches or full installers from the Reactis User Pages.

Best Regards,
The Reactis Team
