irmis-devel Mailing List for IRMIS

Hi all,

 

I uncovered a bug in the service that allowed some actions that should
be forbidden. For example: one could remove a function or an interface
even though they were used by other parts of the database. The bug is
fixed now in trunk and will be added to the next release at the end of
February.

 

Those interested in the details: I didn't quite realize JPA had its own
control for cascade operations, so a delete operation on one object
could trigger the deletion of relationships to other entities. When
switching from JDBC to JPA, then, I lost the check on some constraints
that the database was responsible for. I have appropriately set the
control to just rely on the database, and all is fine. There were
surprisingly very few other bugs that crept in.

Hi all,

 

First release of the year:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/irmis/
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/irmis/> 

 

No changes in the database, though this month we'll most likely remove
the "number of cables" field in the bundle. Spare cables will become
unconnected instances in the cable table, since we'll need to keep track
of data associated with them (most notably a barcode number).

 

More slew of GUI fixes based on feedback. Among which:

* Adding tooltips and changing command names

* Component Editor is now more keyboard friendly

* Items are better alphabetized in the Component Editor

 

Couple of new features too:

* Component tree in the component browser can now be filtered to display
only a subset of components (i.e. a subsystem)

* Component Type editor can export to HTML

* Properties with hyperlinks as values are now clickable in the
Component Browser 

 

Rest of the time went into further improving the new cable editor (which
is not yet finished) and refactoring part of the GUI elements to make
them more stable and reusable.
