  • The way background services are shutdown has been improved to ensure that things stop in a more controlled manner.

• Google API update.

  • The version of the Google API used in Weave has been updated.

• Improved error reporting on client.

  • The client now reports the id of the server command that failed.

• New id filter implementation.

  • A new type of id filter, used when sending/receiving id's from a third party system, provides for adding/removing prefixes and suffixes to/from ids. Additionally a filter chain can also be setup to combine multiple filters into one.

• ACL fix for simple items in client config.

  • An object in a client config that was really just a simple string or number would end up being an object on the client if it has an ACL attached to it. This fix ensures that when the acl is removed from the object it's converted back to a simple type.

2.4.17

Released 28th February 2013

Enhancements

• Perform ArcGIS Server map engine initialisation in a background thread rather than the main initialisation thread.

  • This makes the startup of the system that would otherwise be waiting for slow ArcGIS servers to respond appear quicker.

• Spatial joins added for data

  • It's now possible to generate data based on a spatial relationship.

• Date input formats changed from m/d/y to d/m/y.

  • The date input fields can take a number of formats when typing in the date, but previously they were using US format, this has been changed to AU instead.

• Date and time input formats can be adjusted.

  • The list of date formats that input fields support can be set manually.

• The first day of the week can be set.

  • Calendar controls can now have the first day of the week set, as some places like Sunday others Monday.

• Bookmarks more forgiving of ToC model changes.

  • Previously a change in a ToC model group would mean that the group may not have its state restored properly if the underlying toc model had layers or groups added or removed after the bookmark was saved.

• Unknown layers turned off when restoring a bookmark.

  • When a bookmark is loaded any layers that aren't set in the bookmark will be turned off rather than being left in their previous state.

• Removed useless exception reported sometimes when shutting down.

  • Sometimes an error message would be logged during shutdown that meant nothing and annoyed me (so it's gone).

• Aliases for client configurations.

  • It's now possible to specify an alias for a client config that'll make the config available via a new url, and allow some tweaking of the config.

• License dialog bypass.

  • It's possible to bypass a license dialog at startup by including 'license=accept' in the startup url, handy when integrating Weave with a third party application.

• Hansen update.

  • Hansen bundle sends ids of all Hansen entities when performing a group action.

• DB Storage update

  • User DB storage bundle provides feedback if the underlying datasource isn't available.

Fixes

2.4.16

Released 7th February 2013

Enhancements

• Updated ArcGIS Server libraries.

  • They've been updated from version 9.3.1 to version 10.1.

• Updated ArcGIS Server map engine bundle to use updated AGS library.

  • There were a number of API changes between 9.3 and 10 which have been performed in this update.

  • This update includes support for ArcGIS 10.0 and 10.1 map engines which was previously included in two temporary bundles.

    • If you've previously used these bundles then you will need to update your config files.

    • The updater program should take care or removing these temporary bundles, but it will not update your config files.

    • The update involves changing the namespaces for the map engines from com.cohga.server.map.arcgis10 and com.cohga.server.map.arcgis101 back to com.cohga.server.map.arcgis.ws.

    • Once this update is applied the com.cohga.server.map.arcgis10 and com.cohga.server.map.arcgis101 will no longer work, and any map engines created using these namespaces will not be registered.

• Added support for ImageServices in ArcGIS Server map engine.

  • AGS services that are created as Image Services can now be used as a map engine, this is done in the same way as the existing ArcGIS map services.

• Improved reporting of errors when ArcGIS Server map engines that fail to register.

  • If a map engine files to register the reason, if it can be determined, will be recorded in the log. For example if the map service isn't started, or the server can't be reached.

• ArcGIS Server map engine will generate a dynamic map, rather than using the cache, if the requested map DPI is different from the underlying map tiles.

  • This should help ensure that labels are at the correct size when a map is generated at higher DPI settings, as they could be in a report.

• Updated ArcGIS Server GeoCoding Engine bundle to use updated library.

  • The changes in the AGS library have been taken into account in this update.

• Entity selector panel can now start collapsed, setting "startCollapsed" to "true".

  • The new entity selector panel can now have the groups collapsed rather then expanded as the where previously.

  • You only need to set the base for the URL now rather than include a bunch of WFS parameters in the URL.

• Heartbeat service on the client will now check if the server has been restarted and restart the client also.

  • Since this tells the client that the server has been restarted and their session is out of date.

• Buffer tool available for client.

  • A new buffer tool for the redline is available to create a buffer around the selected entities.

Fixes

• FID to Key translation would occasionally fail with division by zero error.

• Preloading of map engine metadata.

  • ArcGIS Server, ArcIMS and WMS map engines will now pre-load their metadata from the server as soon as they're created rather than waiting for the first time they're accessed. This can be disabled by setting a 'preload' property to 'false' in the map engine configuration.

• Icons can be set for entities.

  • Setting an iconCls property for an entity in the defaults section of a client config will replace the default icons in the entity selector combo box and the spatial identify drill-down tool.

• Sorting of entities.

  • Entities listed in the entity selector combo box will be listed in the order of any <entity> sub-tags. Previously the sub-entities would only filter the list, now they order it also.

• Active entity can be saved in bookmarks.

  • There's a new option when saving bookmarks to that allows the user to also save the currently active entity.

• Client i18n API allows default value to be set for a missing resource.

  • An internal client API that supports internationalisation now allows a default value to be set in the code for times when the required property has not been set. This way at least some useful text will be show, in English, rather than the name of the missing property as was previously the case.

• Improvements in the EView converter tool.

  • The generated configuration files are now split into multiple files.

Fixes

• Url search parameters breaking client.

• Toolbar and statusbar configuration now support | as a was to split the bar across multiple rows. Client Toolbars

  • You can now use a vertical bar as an item in a toolar or status bar to split the bar into multiple rows.

• Paging toolbar in data grid can have text localised. Client Views Data

  • The text for the items of the paging bar in the data view can now have their values changed to support localisation.

• Added support for locally caching tiles from AGS. Locally caching tiles

  • ArcGIS Server map engines that utilise tile caches can be setup to have Weave cache the tiles locally if the response time from the AGS map engine is too slow.

• New dynamic map engine available to provide failover and load balancing for other map engines. Dynamic Map Engine

  • A new virtual map engine has been added that provides a wrapper around other map engines to add load balancing and fail over support.

• Entity selector component provides addition configuration options to modify the way it behaves. Client Components Entity

  • The entity selector drop down load now has some configuration setting which can come in handy when using the selector in non-standard client setups.

• 'spmd' metadata command now has a 'count' option to show a count of the number of records in a spatial table. Weave Metadata Commands

  • You can now get a count of the number of records contains within a spatial map engine.

• Details panel now has paging toolbar to allow more than one result per selected entity. Client Views Details

  • Previously only on data definition result could be displayed in the details panel per selected entity, this limitation has been removed with the addition of a paging toolbar to the bottom of the details panel

• New local system datasource created at startup and available for other services to use.

  • This is an internal HSQLDB datasource registered under the id system.datasource

  • This is available for developers who need a scratch database for storage of data without requiring the administrator to defined one.

• JDBC connection creator no longer retires connection attempts, this is left to the calling code to do.

  • Previously the code that provided database connections to other code would automatically retry the connection attempt if it failed, this retry logic has been removed and it's now up to the calling code to determine if a failed connection attempt should be retried.

• OSGi metadata commands (memd, spmd & dbmd) now sort the top level items when listing them.

  • Previously these items were listed in the order returned by the system, now they're listed alphabetically.

• Index search automatically hides/shows markers when drop down list of matches is hidden/shown.

  • If markers are enabled fir the index search then the markers on the map will now only be displayed when the list of possible matches is actually visible.

• OSGi events are fired when configuration items are inserted, updated and deleted.

  • Developers can take note of these events to trigger some processing when a configuration change occurs.

  • Configuration OSGi events are only fired if 'config.events' system property is set to 'true'.

• Server now understands min/max scale values in toc model.

  • The client doesn't utilise these values yet, so setting them will not do anything, but in the future this will be implemented on the client.

• Updated third party libraries related to connection pooling.

  • Internal third party libraries used to manage pools of connections have been updated to more recent versions.

• Improved/updated logout detection handling.

  • A HTTP header, X-Weave-Login:true, is returned as part of any client request that's send after a user has been logged out, for example because of session expiry.

  • This header can be used by client code to determine that the user needs to login again, previously the response would need to be parsed to determine this since this information was included in the response body.

• Client list page now shows link to login page rather than allowing user to login directly from page.

  • Previously the page listing the clients available to the user contains a username and password field allowing the user to directly login, this has now been changed to a link to the login page.

  • This is to amalgamate the login processing into one place and allow for advanced customisation of the login process with, for example adding openid or facebook authentication support.

• Script reloading timeout during debugging was reduced from 30 seconds to 5.

  • A developer switch indicating that javascript files should be reloaded every time they're requested, rather than just when the system is loaded, was caching the files for 30 seconds, which was too long and has been reduced to 5 seconds.

• Client now supports persistent storage of user state information.

  • Components in the client can now request to have their current state saved and reloaded next time the server is started, for example the default fill style for a redline polygon.

  • Components will have to be updated to make use of this functionality, which will be happening over time.

• Ability to store user and system storage in a database, rather than using the OSGi preferences service which is lost when the configuration area is cleared.

  • This currently isn't enabled by default and must be manually setup, since it involves exporting the existing configuration using the current implementation before importing it into the new implementation, and both implementations can't be installed at the same time.

Fixes

• Ensure FID loading isn't performed on the configuration monitoring thread, uses it's own thread now to occur in the background during startup.

• Problem with data definitions failing when counting records in some circumstances.

• Issue with functionality of the simple report menu and simple report action getting out of sync with the report panel.
