In the Object Referens Manual, the classes in a volume is divided into groups.
The groups are declared in cnv_setup.dat in the wbl directory for the volume,
and which group a class is a member if is defined with a @Group tag in the
wb_load file for the class.
New layout for the
index page of Object Reference Manual.

32 texts can be defined for a component, and the text that is displayed is determined
by the value of an analog signal.

The handling of fast curves is revised and adapted to Xtt/Ge.
The fast curve server rt_fast is now written in c++, and handles the new
DsFastCurve objects.
The curves are displayed in
- the Xtt curve window. A DsFastCurve is opened with the command "open fast".
- as a component i a Ge graph. The new FastCurve component can be found in the Analog map in the subgraph palette.

Faster cycle-time - 2 ms on LINUX.
- It is now possible to run the PLC-threads and the I/O at a cycletime as fast as 2 ms. This is
valid for Linux-systems only.
- To be able to make use of this a new kernel must be installed on your system. Systems generated
from scratch will have the new kernel.
- Fast cycle-times must be used with caution. The system-load and possible slip should be
monitored thoroughly.
- Be aware of that the filter-time for a DI-card can be 30 ms.
- As a result of the above, function time_Uptime has a new return-code TIME__CLKCHANGE. This will
be returned if clock has changed since last call of function. If this code is returned the
resolution of the time returned is 10 ms. Normally the resolution is 1 ms.

Summary of the work so far in V4.0.
- Mysql is replaced by BerkeleyDb.
- Ldh is replaced by dussins of c++ classes (wb environment wb_env).
- Load files are extended and contains all bodies in the objects. They can be read by wb_env and
displayed in the configurator.
- wb_load-files can be read by wb_env and displayed in the configurator.
- Class volumes are never loaded into an databases. They are converted by wb_env directly from wb_load-files
to loadfiles.
- Loadfiles for pwrs, pwrb, NMps, ssab and TLog class volumes, reside on pwr_load in the base system and
not generated and kept by the project.
- Help texts can contain images from GIF or JPEG files.
- wb_load documentation can also contain images.
- Help texts are displayed in a separate window.
- New window with error messages from plc compilation, syntax control etc.
- A new website for a proview version is generated on $pwr_doc. The source code is kept in
$pwre_sroot/doc/web/src. A swedish version in doc/web/sv_se. Manuals are stored in doc/man/src.
- Generation of doxygen source code documentation from pwre.
- New revision of Ge.
- Runtime version control of classes.
