General
- TrackBack now included with Understand
As part of our ongoing Maintenance, we are happy to announce that we are bundling a version of TrackBack together with Understand. TrackBack watches and backs up every change made in your source code. TrackBack is different from a CM tool in that it requires no checkin. TrackBack watches all changes and can tell you a complete history. It acts as an "undo" button - but for work done hours or days ago.
The version included with Understand works just with Understand. However, a separately purchased version can work outside of Understand as well. Learn more about TrackBack at http://www.scitools.com/products/trackback/product.php

- dont add advanced editor style settings anymore
- Add User-Defined styles and keywords.

Attention U.S. Navy project Understand Users:
We have been working on a Navy sponsored SBIR R&D effort for about 2 years now. Some of our recent advances to Understand and TrackBack were spun out of this R&D. Understand 2.0 (which will soon be beta tested) and also new products Change, Measure, and Impact will also spin out of this R&D in the near future.
We now have been nominated for a Commercial Pilot Program (CPP), which is awarded to companies with high commercialization potential of technologies of use to the Navy (and other services). It is quite an honor, something like 20 companies out of around 2000 have made it this far.
How you can help… If you are working on a Navy program (either as a Navy civilian employee or at a prime contractor) then the PEO who nominated us would appreciate additional affirmation that our technology is helping Navy projects. E-mail Ken Nelson (nelson@scitools.com) to learn more about this and who to contact at the Navy SBIR office.

1.4 (Build b407) - 4 June 2007
General
- We are getting near to the first alpha release of our 2.0 version of Understand, which will include the ability to analyze sources from multiple languages at once. We are still sorting out the intricacies of linking names between different languages, as this is highly compiler dependent. If you use multiple languages together we would appreciate getting details from you about which compilers you use, along with any relevant options that affect mixed language linking. As examples of the kind of information we are trying to find, some compilers require that you add "_" or other symbols to the front or end of your external symbols, or make them all lowercase, etc. Please send your linking details to support@scitools.com.
