What’s New

This version of Anypoint Studio introduces the following features:

  • Ability to send Crash Reports from Studio to help us improve our product

  • Support for Authenticated Proxies

  • Multiple Runtimes Support

This release also focuses on general bug fixes.

Hardware Requirements

  • For most use cases, Anypoint Studio with the 4.1.1 Runtime does not change hardware or software requirements from the previous Studio 7 versions.

  • MuleSoft recommends a minimum of 4GB of free RAM available on a developer workstation. As applications become complex, consider adding more RAM.

  • 4GB of free memory available.

  • 2GHz CPU.

  • 10GB free hard drive space.

Software Requirements

Software

Version

Java Environments

  • Oracle JDK 1.8.0

Operating Systems

  • MacOS 10.12.0

  • Windows (32- and 64-bit) Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10

  • RHEL 7.0

  • Ubuntu 15.04 or later

Maven

Studio comes with Maven 3.3.9 bundled, but you can externally use the versions: 3.3.3 or your own 3.3.9

Running real-time antivirus protection software on your operating system might have a negative impact on Anypoint Studio performance. Although this issue is prominent on Windows, it also occurs on Linux and macOS.

Although the steps to solve these performance issues vary depending on your antivirus software, a typical solution is to either allow or exclude the Anypoint Studio and java executables, the Studio install and workspace filesystem locations, or some combination of both. See examples of solutions for McAfee Viruscan, Windows Defender, and Symantec Endpoint Protection.

Migration Guide

For first time installment, refer to Studio 7.1 release notes for instructions and known issues.

Studio 7.1 only supports Mule 4.x projects. The structure of the project, export format, XML and scripting language are different.
Users must migrate Mule 3 projects to Mule 4 manually, before they can be used in Studio 7. See the Mule migration guide for more information.

Workspaces created using Anypoint Studio 6.x or below are not compatible with Anypoint Studio 7 workspaces.

From version 7.1.1 there is no special migration needed. When opening a previous Workspace which has projects that were created with Studio 7.1.0, and metadata stored in disk, Studio asks you to perform an update to all the projects so that the Metadata Manager can handle the types and to show the types in your project.

JIRA Ticket List for Anypoint Studio

Known Issues

  • Some existing features in Studio 6.x are not yet supported in Studio 7.1: Custom Policies, API Sync, Anypoint Private Cloud.

  • Because the metadata propagation works differently in Studio 7, Datasense might display errors if your DataWeave code has references to unknown metadata either because you didn’t define the metadata before writing your code, or because your flow is still incomplete.
    See Understanding How DataSense Uses Mule Event Metadata and Transform Message Component for more information.

  • Anypoint Studio uses your configured default browser to display web content such as Exchange and the Runtime Manager UI when deploying an application to Anypoint Platform. If your default internet browser does not display this content correctly, you can configure Anypoint Studio to use a Mozilla/XULRunner runtime environment as the underlying renderer for the Web UI.
    Follow the FAQ: Troubleshooting Issues with Your Default OS Browser for more details.

  • When referencing a RAML spec using Json Schema draft 3, DataSense fails. STUDIO-10033

  • Debugger: payload shown while debugging is partial but there is no way to view the rest of the payload STUDIO-9704

  • When referencing a RAML spec using Json Schema draft 3, DataSense fails STUDIO-10033

  • Mule plugins with snapshot versions should always be regenerated.STUDIO-8716

  • Using the "Validate" option in your Mule configuration files is not supported.

    You can choose to disable these validators:

    • At Workspace level: By clicking Preferences, Validation, and disabling "Manual" and "Build" checkbox for XML Schema Validator and XML Validator.

    • At Project level: By right-clicking on your project in your Package Explorer View, select Properties, Validation, and disabling "Manual" and "Build" checkbox for XML Schema Validator and XML Validator.
