- Improves translation of EFX-1.
12
+
- Adds support for translating EFX-2 expressions and templates.
13
+
- Removes support of the obsolete EFX versions included in pre-release versions of the SDK (SDK 0.x.x).
14
+

## EFX-1 Support
17
+
18
+
Although this is a pre-release version of the EFX Toolkit, it provides production-level support for EFX-1 transpilation.
19
+
EFX-1 is the current version of EFX released with SDK 1. Transpilation of EFX-1 to XPath is on par with the EFX Toolkit 1.3.0.
20
+
21
+
## EFX-2 Support
22
+
23
+
The new version of EFX is still under development and will be released with SDK 2.0.0. For more information of EFX-2 see the release notes of the eForms SDK 2.0.0-alpha.1.
24
+
25
+
## Breaking changes
26
+
27
+
For users of the Toolkit that have implemented custom transpilers, this release contains a few breaking changes.
28
+
More specifically:
29
+
30
+
- Some additional methods have been added to the SymbolResolver, ScriptGenerator and MarkupGenerator API. As a guide for your implementations please look a the implementations included in the EFX Toolkit for use by the EFX-to-XPath transpilation.
31
+
- Some deprecated methods were removed.
32
+
- An extensive refactoring in the type management system has rearranged the package structure. As a result some import statements in your code will need to be updated.
33
+
34
+
Users of the Toolkit that only use the included EFX-to-XPath transpiler will not be affected by the above changes.
35
+
36
+
## Future development
37
+
38
+
Further alpha and beta releases of SDK 2 and EFX Toolkit 2 will be issued. While in "alpha" development stage, further braking changes may be introduced. SDK 2 and EFX 2 are expected to continue to be under development util late 2023.
