Version 4.6.6

Date: 2002-01-14

This patch is cumulative with the previous ones, you do not need to install any older patches.  After this patch, both Admin Tool and Metamerge Integration Server will have version 4.6.6.

Warning

  • Concerning enabled hooks without code in them:  Integrator used to treat such hooks as disabled.  This is now changed, and an info message will show up in the log.  Note that if you have enabled Failure Hooks without code in them, this can change the servers behaviour as the AssemblyLine can regard error as handled. See Enabling/Disabling hooks for more on this.

Bugs fixed

  • POP3 Connector: It was not possible to delete messages using pop3 in the mailbox connector 
  • HTTP EventHandler: Could hang when a connection was stopped by client just after acceptance 
  • Auth Connector: Using the Auth Connector with the HTTP EventHandler, you would get a java.lang.AbstractMethodError due to a missing jar
  • Hooks: In override_add hook,  work object was unavailable
  • Hooks: Compute Changes and modify_no_change hook:  If the Compute Changes flag was set, the conn object in the modify_no_change hook contained all mapped attributes (even if not marked for updating). The conn object now usually has an empty set of attributes, since there are no changes. 
  • GUI: Import AssemblyLine could link two AssemblyLine configurations
  • GUI: Select button in attribute map did not list inherited working attributes
  • GUI showed Before Update hook misplaced
  • GUI: EventHandler name was not refreshed after renaming an EventHandler 
  • GUI: If you added a Connector in iterator mode, and the current Connector was the first non-iterator Connector, the screen was not updated properly
  • GUI: Sometimes, the up-arrow in the file-chooser would not work.
  • Error Message:  "No form definition for parser" would show up places where it should not (in Connectors without parsers)

Improvements

  • Hooks: Two new hooks implemented in order to let you catch errors during initialization of Connectors: initialize_fail and close_fail
  • Hooks: Enabled hooks without code are no longer treated as disabled
  • LDIF Parser: Accepts more data-types now. It is also able to output with base64 encoding when necessary. And it reads data in closer accordance to RFC2849
  • XML Parser:  Now behaves better if your tags are empty
  • Btree Connector: Logging of message from delta Btree included a null message
  • Changelog Connectors: The default url in the NetscapeChangelog Connector is now  ldap://localhost:389 (it was ldap://hostname:389)
  • HTTP EventHandler now logs port number already in use to console as well. 
  • GUI: Save OK popup window removed. It is now replaced by a message in the title bar telling you when you last saved your file
  • GUI: Admin tool now closes the Connector when the Configure Connector tab is closed.  This reduces the chance for failure with drivers that lock the data-source because there is a connection open
  • GUI: Warning is now issued if your try to create/rename AssemblyLines and EventHandler to names with commas in them
  • GUI Connector Update Mode: The hooks "On Multiple Entries" and "After Update" are not called when the "Override Update" hook is enabled. The GUI now marks these hooks with a red message saying that the hooks will not be executed.
