Changes to Tigerstripe in Iteration 49:

Easy discovery of annotation inconsistencies (Bugzilla 320070)
Annotation framework now indicates inconsistencies and dangling annotations in Problems view.

Multiple XML parsers are used (Bugzilla 228545)
There were two XML parsers being used in Tigerstripe. For the sake of consistency, the code was refactored to use Dom4J.

Audit Instance diagram support (Bugzilla 221309)
Diagram audits for Instance diagrams is now supported.

Change all references of Tigerstripe Plugin Project to Tigerstripe Generator Plug-in Project (Bugzilla 319402)
This enhancement was already resolved where all instances of "Tigerstripe Plugin" were replaced by "Tigerstripe Generator" to simplify things for users.

Display AssociationEnds in Detailed Editor (Bugzilla 283138)
This was an old enhancement that had been resolved before, but the corresponding bugzilla was never closed.

Artifacts' names incoherently cached (Bugzilla 330565)
This defect caused Tigerstripe's caching mechanism to misbehave in certain cases when generation was executed. As a result, stale data was fed into generators, which resulted in invalid output.

Disabling artifacts in profile has variable impact (Bugzilla 219575)
This was an old issue related to disabling artifacts in profiles. Issue is no longer reproducible in latest version of Tigerstripe.

Deploy profile does not refresh the explorer (Bugzilla 300370)
This issue related to Tigerstripe Explorer not getting updated after a new profile was deployed. Specifically, it related to Stereotype information not getting update in Tigerstripe Explorer.

Some exceptions are not reported to the Eclipse Error Log (Bugzilla 337128)
There were certain cases where exceptions were not being logged in Eclipse's Error log view. This limitation arose from the requirement to use Tigerstripe in a headless environment. The code now properly checks to see if the Error Log is available. If so, it logs the messages as expected.

Some TS wizards are repeated twice in context menu (Bugzilla 373446)
This defect fixed the issue where some wizards were repeated twice and facet wizard was not displayed when user right clicked on a regular folder in a TS project.

Diagram audit - internal pointer file names (Bugzilla 221468)
Diagram audits now check and fix any issues related to incorrect filenames.

Issues with enabling/disabling references under dependencies (Bugzilla 373164)
In certain cases enabling/disabling references under dependencies would not work as expected. Please see defect description for more details.

Additional Requests for Audit/Sync diagrams (Bugzilla 226387)
This issue related to bugzilla#221468 and requested additional checks for diagram audits.
