Release Notes

State Final release
License TRI

PCEnv 0.5 Release Candidate 1 was released with minor documentation changes as PCEnv 0.5.


PCEnv 0.5 features interfaces to enhancements in the underlying CellML DOM API, such as a validator, better control over tabulation of results, and access to an experimental DAE solver. It also has other editing improvements such as a new Mathematics tree view.

Change log

This version of PCEnv adds several new features:

  • An interface to the validator service
  • An exposure of the tabulation controls for the integrator
  • A new Mathematics tree view
  • Graphical rendering of connections
  • Some basic usability fixes, such as confirm dialogs and changes to frame layout

There were also numerous bug fixes, such as the ability to plot constants.


PCEnv uses the CellML DOM API version 1.5. The CellML DOM API version 1.5 has more powerful support for solving index 1 Differential Algebraic Equations than previous versions, however the solution method should be considered experimental, as further work is done to validate it.
