3.5-FINAL compared to 3.4-STABLE

The following features were initially developped for branch 3.4 but due to internal reasons we decided to put a small subset as 3.4-PROD. Now the goal is to put 3.5-FINAL in production as soon as possible. To make it possible, features are freezed: now 3.5-FINAL will receive only correction of bugs or complements to documentation; new features are for 3.6-TEST or 3.7-DEV.

3.5-FINAL compared to 3.4-STABLE

• Search screens
  • Orphans are now neither Ongoing nor translation memories (was Ongoing in DGT-OmegaT and translation memories in standard OmegaT)
  • Display error in the search pane, in red, not in a popup modal window
  • Main search screen : can search on notes or properties
  • Pre-translate with source: can insert with glossaries, and exclude entries which do not have glossary
  • Pre-translate + Replace :
    • if a search reached maximum number of results, after replacement/pre-translation you can start a new search from the point it was interrupted before
    • Do not merge duplicates if this is an alternative translation (i.e. only for defaults) because they may differ
    • Can choose to pre-translate as an alternative translation (not default)
    • Can replace in orphan segments, but not interactive
  • Option true missing, to decide what to do with results where author or date is not present
• Matches pane
  • If no entry is found with current language,
    • You can tell which alternative language you want to put, with multiple values ordered by priority
    • You can give a penalty
    • You can decide whenever to insert or not the contents in the editor
• Segmentation
  • Supports CSCX format (read-only, for the moment)
• Glossaries
  • Option to inactivate segment merging
  • Basic support for TBX 3.0
  • Lucene indexation for glossaries (stable version does it only for translation memories)
• Editor
  • When an XLIFF is opened containing multiple files, View source/target opens the correct sub-file depending on editor's position
  • Distinction between alternative and default in editor info
• Statistics
  • Use adjusted score for statistics (previous versions used a re-calculated version which did not apply penalties)
  • Statistics about revision
  • Can call (all kinds of) statistics in command line
• XLIFF and SDLXLIFF
  • Use stream-based API until we keep objects (previous version always kept objects, which consumes more memory)
• New file filter for OpenXML
• Plugins
  • MyMemory plugin using TMX reader in stream mode (previous release read the full contents as a DOM tree)
  • TeamBase and translation memory plugins
    • Optional file which saves in real-time, to prevent crash

All of this is here to be tested. This should be ready for production but can also have some bugs. When documented in the feature pages, they are generally marked with icon  (don't confuse with the green one, which marks features already in stable release but recently). You can see it as "recent" version of standard OmegaT. All these features are also present in 3.6-TEST and 3.7-DEV, which adds much more.
