V23.11

What's Changed

New features

• The application has been transformed to .NET8
  The GRAL release is no longer published as all-in-one file by default
  This means that user must install .NET8 Runtime (Windows OS requires the .NET8 Desktop
  Runtime) and therefore benefits in several ways
  ▪ Smaller published files
  ▪ Fewer false warnings from anti-virus programs
  ▪ Better performance
  ▪ Individual setting options from Runtime for the respective computer in the *.runtimecon-fig.json file
  ▪ Same compilation for Windows, Linux and MacOS
  For windows users, a published version as a single-fill is still available in a separate download

V22.09 binaries for GRAL, GRAMM and the GUI

Bug fixes

• Use the correct sign for the wind vectors, if an overflow occurs while writing the wind field vectors. Catch an overflow, which could occur when writing the stability class files
• Linux: compiled for .NET5 as single file applications. Start GRAL or GRAMM using ./GRAL or ./GRAMM or using the Linux GUI. The .NetCore or .Net5 Framework no longer needs to be installed for Linux when using the self-extracting executables. It is still possible to use the operating system independent *.dll files if the .NetCore Framework is installed
