In the previous version of the parser, most of the parser data were stored in static variables and the data lifecycle was based on initializers and cleaners. The new architecture places data in data singletons and uses C++ constructors and destructors. The switch to the C++ architecture has improved the parser re-enterability, made the data flow more robust, and helped clean multiple memory leaks in the parser code.</td>

This meant that if a property was defined once, it continued to be defined in the next DEF file reads. In some applications, this feature was actively used. In others, it disturbed expected application behavior. To address this issue, the latest version of the parser introduces two modes of files processing - compatibility mode and session-based mode.</td>
