RobWork 0.5.1 Released
RobWork version 0.5.1 is now released. This release contains mainly bugfixes but also has the following important changes:
- The source in now continuesly monitored by a build server. Less compilation problems should thus occur.
- Better support for Visual Studio.
- Smart-pointers to RobWork types are now defined as ClassName::Ptr instead of ClassNamePtr. To use the old pointer style you need to define RW_USE_DEPRECATED
- Minor updates and improvements all around.
This version can be found on svn at: https://svn.mip.sdu.dk/RobWork/branches/release-0.5-stable
The release 0.6 will soon be available and will contain significant upgrades to the e.g. visualization and it will natively include the RobWork simulation framework RobWorkSim. An early version of this is available on svn.
Until then, please enjoy release 0.5.1.

64 bit support and Debian SDK packagesRobWork now compiles natively on 64 bit platforms. See the updated installation instructions for Xerces, Boost and Qt for more information on the compilation process for the supported platforms:
In addition, we are also in the process of providing binary SDK installation packages for RobWork. At the moment, you can get Debian packages for Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10, but we are working hard on providing packages for the Windows-based compilers. The binary SDK packages will be suitable for those interested in creating their own RobWork/RobWorkStudio plugins (see the example folders in the installation directories for some sample plugins). If, however, you want to maintain a local checkout of the latest SVN revision of RobWork or if you wish to make you own modifications to the RobWork source, we still recommend that you perform an SVN checkout and follow the build instructions in the installation section. See the download section for more information on how to get the source and SDK packages. Dashboard up and runningThanks to Anders B. the dashboards currently showing nightly builds are now running.
