Release 4.100 December 11, 2010 barney
  • bugfix - printing text blobs would misalign/misscale x-axis of the text blob meaning that the blob would clip towards the right hand side of the page and would not print properly. The more to the right the blob was the more obvious the problem. For workshop print progress report the problem is very obvious
  • Config settings - tweaked caching of configuration system so that the system is more responsive changes made between terminals and multiple instances of c9 running on the same terminal
    • Always flush cache when entering setup
    • Never cache local terminal settings in c9 - rely on clarion2java's .property file caching mechanism
    • Implement logic to detect changes to global settings by other terminals. When change is detected flush the cache

  • C8 messenger. Setup DNS cache to regularly flush. Improved logging
  • C8 messenger : Memory leak bugfix. Everytime it connects and disconnects to the database it leaks a bit of memory which happens every few seconds. After a few days of running continuously on a low spec machine, it would silently crash due to being out of memory

Release 4.98 December 9, 2010 barney
  • Major bugfix with 4.97 (never installed)
  • Clarion2java changes caused certain screens to lock up. i.e. selecting part from accessories. Root cause traced to bug in recasting clarion queues. Fixed twofold - firstly allowed queue casting to share the same queue structure and secondly modified ABC libraries so bufferedpairsclass extends fieldpairsclass removing necessity to cast in the first place
Release 4.96 December 8, 2010 barney
  • Bugfix : c9 shutdown generated an invisible error in log files caused by incorrect teardown of miner libraries

Release 4.93 December 5, 2010 barney
  • Bugfix : Invoice detailed notes were not printing on units invoice
  • Bugfix : Invoice notes summary on screen allowed 255 chars, but in database it was only 60 - ignoring the remaining chars. Modified screen to reflect 60 char limit
Release 4.92 December 4, 2010 barney
  • Bugfix : units would hang in an infinite loop if you specified a full price or final price below smallest possible allowed. i.e. there is duty item worth $50, and user sets final price to $30: which would require asking price to be negative 20 to work. Under such circumstances c8 would hang in an infinite loop. Bugfix addresses this by setting price to minimum allowed.
