1.2.0-Beta1

This release of Strongback is compatible with the 2016 WPILib released for the 2016 season, and has been tested with WPILib version 201602112135, 0.1.0.201601151923 and 0.1.0.201601072029. This release of Strongback is not compatible with 2015 (or earlier) versions of WPILib.

This release changes how Strongback runs its execution thread to be more efficient and to correct when warnings about delayed execution are generated. This change does not remove or change any public API methods, and therefore no robot code needs to be changed. However, a few of the Strongback configuration options available in previous versions are no longer supported, so the corresponding methods in Strongback and its configurator are now deprecated and may no longer have any affect.

If you are upgrading a system that has an older version of Strongback, first remove the existing strongback installation directory completely before downloading and unpacking this newer version. The rest of your system (e.g., path, Eclipse workspace, or Eclipse projects) can be unchanged, and everything will simply pick up the new version. To verify you have the new version installed, the command line tool will now output the Strongback version if you run strongback.sh version on OS X and Linux, or strongback.bat version on Windows.
