Installer:
Besides the normal all in one installer we have now installers per platform (windows, osx, linux)
These installers are just zip/tar files that just needs extraction in a directory.
On OSX you need to run "firstuse.command" before starting the developer.
An installation (coming from the normal installer or from a platform specific archive) is now shipping with with a Java vm (Java12)
So for the platform specific archives you don't need to install or java have on your system.
The all in one installer still needs java for itself.
Features:
security hardening, session hijacking with cross site scripting made a lot harder because the websocket session is split up, where one portion is not readable in JavaScript
eclipse upgraded to 19.03/4.11 (this also can bring java lib updates like http client)
java lib updates to oauth and broadcaster plugins
js lib upgraded (bootstrap 3.4.1, jquery 3.3.1, jquery-ui 1.12.1, angular 1.7.7)
Form and Table security can now be configured to be in explicit mode, so the user only has rights to stuff from the groups the user is in if the groups have explicitly set that it is allowed.
First cut of NGDesktop client support, you are able to launch the ngclient in the NGDesktop wrapper (build on electron/chrome), more support will be added in the coming releases
