	We are pleased to announce Protege 4.2 beta! The main thrust of the 4.2 series will be the roll out of several new plug-ins, including an ontology difference tool, enhanced explanation support, client-server capabilities, support for code generation, and a database back-end. Please contact us via the [http://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/p4-feedback Protege 4 mailing list] with questions, feedback, and bug reports.		We are pleased to announce Protege 4.2 beta!

		+	=== Build 278 -- July 12, 2012 ===
		+
		+	* Fixed a bug that caused the Usage view to fail with a NullPointerException if it was displayed before an entity of the appropriate type was selected. For example, if a user opened an ontology and selected the class usage view before selecting a class, the view would fail. The view could then only be restored by resetting the UI or restarting Protege.
		+
		+	* The rename multiple entities tool (Refactor \| Rename multiple entities...) no longer has problems renaming URIs that include characters with special meanings for a regular expression search.
		+
		+	* Interrupting a reasoner now works properly with two provisos. First, some reasoners will not respond to an interrupt. This is a reasoner problem and we can't fix that. Second, after the interrupt, Protege will continue to use the reasoner. This will be dealt with in the next version of Protege.
		+
		+	* Added a Stop reasoner menu item to allow users to stop a reasoner (Reasoner \| Stop reasoner). Previously, the best method of stopping a reasoner was to select a different default reasoner type.
		+
		+	* Changed the default configuration of the Individuals tab in response to some comments on the p4-feedback mailing list. The previous configuration could be confusing because all the views of the collection of individuals were filtered by the selected class.
		+
		+	* Centralized and improved the handling of vacuous inferred results. Previously, several inferred views would be cluttered with a large number of trivial results. Now this clutter has been somewhat trimmed and the trimming is applied consistently across the user interface.
		+
		+	* Fixed a problem with new entity preferences where it was possible for the generated fragment to use an auto-generated ID, but the label provided by the user was not used.
		+
		+	* Fixed a bug where the Object/Data restriction creator sometimes failed to allow valid input.
		+
		+	* Fixed the Add to ontology button in the DL Query tab.

 * It is now possible for users to download and/or update plug-ins even when the Protege distribution is read-only.  If the [[EnablePluginAutoUpdate|auto update mechanism]] can't write to Protege's plugin subdirectory, it falls back to writing to a user directory.  This mainly effects Windows users who install to the Program Files directory, but it's also important for Linux administrators who create a shared Protege installation for multiple users.
