Dear customer
In this release we mainly strengthened the application import by checking the new application format during the import, which makes the application import and export more
stable and safe in terms of backward and forward compatibility. We also fixed the model and application duplicates which could be generated during upgrades to the 1.5.0.S92
and
1.5.0.S93
releases. There is also a new feature to search the attributes of the process, CMMN and form diagram to ease search for elements with specific properties.
This release also fixes a lot of smaller issues.
Best regards,
the edorasware team
Application format version and import checks
Exported Apps now contain format version information. If an App is imported into an incompatible edoras one installation then an error will be shown and the import will fail. Note that this checking is only performed from this release onwards. For older edoras one releases you should generally avoid importing Apps that were created by later edoras one versions than the system you are importing to.
Duplicate Applications and Models
In releases 1.5.0.S92
or 1.5.0.S93
it was possible in some circumstances to inadvertently create
duplicate Apps, especially for the pre-installed Apps. This release will clean up the unnecessary
duplicates but if you have local changes in a duplicated App that you would like to preserve then
you may need to take additional action before upgrading. Please refer to the upgrade notes
for more details.
Search attributes in diagram
In the CMMN, Process and Form designers it is now possible to search on attribute values.
A new Search attributes in diagram
menu item has been added to the tool bar. This new tool bar menu opens a Search
panel at the bottom of the design area.
In this Search
panel, a case insensitive search can be initiated by entering desired text and either clicking on the Search
button or by pressing the Enter
key.
The search results are displayed in a tabular format which has the component id and it’s attributes that match the search criteria. Double-clicking on any of the results will in turn select the respective shape in the diagram area.
Search also supports using the *
wildcard.
Miscellaneous
Model linking issue in CMMN designer
Fix for the 500
error faced while running cases created from CMMN type case models, which have process task, case task or
human task elements which are associated with new models created using the context menu’s link icon in the designer view.
If an existing CMMN model saved since 1.5.0.S92
version already has this issue, saving the model again with this version and redeploying the App should solve the problem.
Searches with underscore and percent
In previous releases, searching for work objects using values that contain underscore or percent characters could give unexpected results, as these characters were treated as wildcards. Search in edoras one now treats these as literal characters, so more specific searches can be created.
CMMN improvements
With this release, a number of improvements and bug fixes in the area of edoras one CMMN were fixed. These include
-
Improved exit sentry evaluation on repeatable stages
-
Improved support for external IDs in the CmmnCaseProvider
-
Improved infinite loop prevention
-
Improved CMMN service call synchronization (nested/queued plan item transitions)
-
Clean-up (naming, comments) of the CMMN Spring config
