.NET Retirement
With release 10.0.0 in 2019 we announced our .NET API was considered deprecated, and it is now time to officially retire it. As always, if you require assistance or advice with moving to our REST or Java APIs we will be happy to help so feel free to contact DeltaXML.

Improvements
The "Core Comparator" is the engine that does the main comparison between the input pipelines and the output pipeline. In this release we have worked on its performance, averaging a 20% decrease in the time that the Core Comparator takes, and reducing most resources like the stack size that it uses. Depending on the inputs you have and the pipelines you use this may or may not be reflected in your timings.
In line with other changes to our licensing processes, new licenses are no longer be tied to a specific product version. This means the next time we release a new major or minor release, you can keep using your existing license (so long as it is still in date of course!). New licenses issued will remain backwards compatible, but version 11.0.0 is the first to take advantage of this new date based system.
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue in the handling of moved elements if the candidate element was an invalid CALS table.
Fixed issue which caused processing instructions within CALS tables to be dropped from the output. This was support case CUST-401.
Deprecation
Some classes from the com.deltaxml.core and com.deltaxml.api packages have been deprecated. Please see Version 11 Deprecations for more information.
