BASIS International Ltd releases BBj®, the Barista® Application Framework, and AddonSoftware® by Barista version 15.12. This maintenance release incorporates all customer requested fixes listed in the Fixes file. Download the released 15.12 today for the most robust version of our products and sample all of the new 16.0 preview features.

Included in this release is the new BASIS License Manager (BLM) version 16.00, available both as a new stand-alone BLM download of less than 100 Mb as well as being a part of the traditional BASIS Product Suite download. This new BLM, which requires Java 8, facilitates the use of perpetual licenses for all BASIS products. Upon successful license registration, the new BLM will automatically keep your license functional via an internet connection with the BASIS license generator, obviating the need for a license reset. Updating to this new version of the BLM is the best way to keep your software running in a safe and secure manner, reducing potential downtime and ensuring business continuity. Additional details will follow in a separate communique.
