Title: FET-6.5.0 released
Post by: Liviu Lalescu on May 23, 2022, 07:26:49 PM
On Monday, 23 May 2022, FET-6.5.0 was released. From the ChangeLog:

  - Important generation bug fix, when using constraints of type students (set) max span per (real) day. This bug was found with the help of Vangelis Karafillidis. Unfortunately, this bug fix means that the generation might take longer (for the contrived example FET-5-official/Romania/Pedagogic-High-School-Tg-Mures/2007-2008_sem1-d-test-students-max-span-per-day.fet the generation time might be even with 50% longer on average). But the algorithm is correct now and hopefully on real-life examples the behavior will be better; for this same contrived example, cycling (which is very very bad), which appeared when locking the activities to days, is not a problem anymore.
  - Bug fixes in the interface: when modifying the number of hours per half day in the Mornings-Afternoons mode, the constraints of type 'max span per real day' were forced to reduce their maximum span to the number of hours per half day, not to the number of hours per real day.
  - Added two new types of constraints for the Terms mode: activities min in a term and max terms between activities (suggested by mikkojoo).
  - Added a new example file from Algeria, by Benahmed Abdelkrim.
