Software v2.7.2 released

3 Mar 2020

I’m happy to announce that a new release of the IPbus software suite (i.e. uHAL library and the ControlHub) is now available!

This release contains one fix, for a bug introduced in v2.7.0 that led to spurious error message being printed if the root node in an address table file did not have an id attribute, even though for the root nodes of files the id attribute is never used.

Installation instructions are located here. You can update from any previous 2.7.x release (i.e. versions 2.7.0 or 2.7.1) to this release like so:

sudo yum clean all          # may be necessary
sudo yum groupupdate uhal

Detailed release notes can be found here

N.B. This release is API and ABI compatible with the previous v2.7.x releases - i.e. end-users do NOT have to recompile their C++ source code after updating from any previous v2.7.x release.

Thanks, The IPbus software team
