Dear Customer,

a new maintenance release of TTworkbench, version 1.1.7, is now available for download.
This release brings complete new features - a migration manager to ease the migration if interfaces change, and an extract TTCN-3 wizard for extraction of parts of a TTCN-3 test suite. This release also brings many feature improvements and bugfixes, as well as new plugins for CAN and Ethernet.

Please Note: 

TTworkbench 1.1.7 is based on NEW Eclipse 3.4.1. Thus, an update from 1.1.6 to 1.1.7 using the built-in update manager is not possible. A fresh installation into a new folder is required.

With the TTworkbench release in June, the logging interface TciTLProvided was deprecated. It was replaced by the new standard compliant interface TciTLProvided321TT. Support for the interface TciTLProvided and all deprecated logging methods will be discontinued with this release.

What's New?
