Serialisation
In ecflow 4 . series, we used boost Serialisation for the client/server communication.
...
Hence future release of ecflow 5 series can be done with different boost releases.
Stats Command
For the stats command in 4 series version , the server returns a struct for the statistics, the client then formats this.
...
This reduces the latency for GUI and python clients and improves responsiveness.
Generic Attribute
A new generic attribute has been added to the defeinition in ecflow 5 series.
This will be used to address any new functionality required, without breaking backward compatibility.
