Release Notes
This page describes the most important new features.
Changes within the BPC version are documented at Changelog.
Explanation of Versioning
Versions with different version numbers are released regularly for the BPC. A version number consists of three parts: major.minor.patch.
A change in the major version number(e.g., 4.0) indicates that the release includes significant changes to the software.
For example, APIs may have been changed or removed, major changes may have been made to the user interface, or major features may have been removed or added.
A change to the minor version number(e.g., 4.3) may include new features, changes to existing features, or the removal of features.
In addition, changes may occur for supported platforms (e.g., databases, operating systems, Git versions).
A change in the patch version number(e.g., 4.3.1) may include bug fixes, stability improvements, and performance enhancements.
Minor changes to existing features may be included, but these do not include new features or critical changes.
Breaking changes are generally intended to address potential security vulnerabilities and may therefore occur in any release.
However, the goal is still to include these changes in major releases.
Breaking changes are highlighted in the Changelog.
