SCL-1859 Regenerating Business Entity changed line ending style

Description:

We've resolved an issue in the Business Entity Generator which caused that when Business Entities and Data Access classes have been generated initially their line-break style was Windows (CR/LF) and after regenerating the line-break style was changed to Unix Style (LF). This was causing additional differences in the generated source code in SCM tools. With this fix, the line break style is Unix after initially generating a Business Entity. We've chosen this style, as LF is generally better supported on Windows than CR/LF on Unix and it's the Progress default anyway.

SCL-2225 Exporting/Importing data for ValueListBusinessEntity using GenericDataImported causing new GUID's

Description:

We have resolved an issue in the SmartDB Upgrade and Migration Routine. The issue was causing new GUID's getting generated as the primary unique key value for some of our SmartDB tables (e.g. the SmartValueList).

SCL-2230 All references to Progress.Reflect.Flags must be fully qualified

Description:

...

To resolve an compile time issue where the compiler was mistaking an abbreviated reference to values form the Progress.Reflect.Flags enum we have fully qualified all references to this type (not relying on the USING statement).

SCL-2237 Fixed an issue with generating Business Entities

Description:

We've resolved an issue with the Win32 GetUserName method. This method determines a users full name. The issue was occurring when the Business Entity Designer was executed using the UTF-8 code page and the developer's full name contained German Umlaute. !image-2018-06-15-13-46-44-996.png!

Improvement

SCL-2196 Added new Business Entity Designer setting that allows to suppress the prompt for updating Business Entity and Data Access class

Description:

We've added a new logical toggle on the "Generator" tab of the Business Entity Designer Settings that allows to control if the Business Entity Designer will prompt the user before updating the Business Entity or Data Access source during the Regenerate of existing source code. The new option is labelled "Prompt before updating existing Business Entity or Data Access class during re-generate"

SCL-2203 Implemented additional shortcuts for editing properties in the Business Entity Designer

Description:

We've implemented the following shortcuts for editing properties in the Business Entity Designer: - Double click on a Table, Field, Index or Data Relation will activate the property viewer for that element in edit mode (when no other property viewer is currently in edit mode)

...

• Double click on empty space on the design canvas will activate the business entity property viewer in edit mode

...

• F2 on a Table, Field, Index or Data Relation will activate the property viewer for that element in edit mode (when no other property viewer is currently in edit mode)

...

• F2 when no other element is selected will activate the business entity property viewer in edit mode

And there are still the shortcut keys implemetned as part of SCL-1907:

...

• CTRL-E: Entity Properties

...

• CTRL-F: Field Properties

...

• CTRL-I: Index Properties

...

• CTRL-T: Temp-Table Properties

...

• CTRL-R: Relation Properties

...

• CTRL-S: Save in property viewer

...

• ESC: Cancel in property viewer

SCL-2207 Added Ne (not equals) to Ccs.BusinessLogic.QueryOperatorEnum

Description:

The Common Component Specification CCSBE document and related interfaces are missing the Ne (not equals) operator in the QueryOperatorEnum enumeration. We have added this value now to the enum and added support for _not equals_ in the Table Query interfaces and related classes and templates. As we've modified the following templates for this enhancement, developers are recommented to verify their customized templates:

...

• Consultingwerk/BusinessEntityDesigner/Generator/Templates/TableQueryBuilder/characterquerypredicate.template

...

• Consultingwerk/BusinessEntityDesigner/Generator/Templates/TableQueryBuilder/datequerypredicate.template

...

• Consultingwerk/BusinessEntityDesigner/Generator/Templates/TableQueryBuilder/datetimequerypredicate.template

...

• Consultingwerk/BusinessEntityDesigner/Generator/Templates/TableQueryBuilder/datetimetzquerypredicate.template

...

• Consultingwerk/BusinessEntityDesigner/Generator/Templates/TableQueryBuilder/decimalquerypredicate.template

...

• Consultingwerk/BusinessEntityDesigner/Generator/Templates/TableQueryBuilder/int64querypredicate.template

...

• Consultingwerk/BusinessEntityDesigner/Generator/Templates/TableQueryBuilder/integerquerypredicate.template

...

• Consultingwerk/BusinessEntityDesigner/Generator/Templates/TableQueryBuilder/logicalquerypredicate.template

...

• Consultingwerk/BusinessEntityDesigner/Generator/Templates/TableQueryBuilder/tablequery.template

We are working with Progress Software to ensure that their deployment of the CCS Interfaces with OpenEdge 11.7 will also include the Ne operator in the future.

SCL-2219 Repository Object Exporter now raising an error when target directory cannot be created

Description:

Before this improvement the Repository Object Exporter was ignoring errors when the target folder for the object export (base folder plus module folder) could not be generated for any reason. The following WRITE-XML invocation of the ProDataset was then raising an issue of "invalid arguments passed to the method" - which is typically confusing. A more meaningful error is now generated also indicating why the folder could not be generated.

SCL-2223 Added taskname attribute to the PCTRun targets in setup.xml

Description:

To simplify debugging of issues with the SmartDB Upgrade and Migration Routine we have added the taskname attribute to the various steps of the ANT script. The taskname attribute allows replacing the [PCTRun] in the scripts console output with a custom value describing the actual procedure that is executed.

SCL-2224 Business Entity Designer now indicating the cardinality of a relation on the Design Canvas

Description:

The Business Entity Designer does not indicate on each end of a relation either an "1" or "N" based on a comparison of the fields of the table's unique indexes and the relation fields. If an relation is matching the unique index fields on either end of the relation the "1" does also show the name of the index that's causing the relation to be unique at that end (parent or child of the relation).

SCL-2227 Added additional methods to the NamedQueryParameter class to make it easier to return Integer/Decimal/... parameter values

Description:

Added the following new methods to the Consultingwerk.OERA.NamedQueryParameter class to simplify retrieving of values from Named Query Parameters.

METHOD PUBLIC CHARACTER GetValueAsCharacter (pcKey AS CHARACTER):
METHOD PUBLIC INTEGER GetValueAsInteger (pcKey AS CHARACTER):
METHOD PUBLIC INT64 GetValueAsInt64 (pcKey AS CHARACTER):
METHOD PUBLIC DECIMAL GetValueAsDecimal (pcKey AS CHARACTER):
METHOD PUBLIC DATE GetValueAsDate (pcKey AS CHARACTER):
METHOD PUBLIC DATETIME GetValueAsDateTime (pcKey AS CHARACTER):
METHOD PUBLIC DATETIME-TZ GetValueAsDateTimeTz (pcKey AS CHARACTER):
METHOD PUBLIC LOGICAL GetValueAsLogical (pcKey AS CHARACTER):

...

SCL-2232 Implemented additional Interfaces for http error classes

Description:

To support developers writing custom error or exception classes we've created marker interfaces representing every http 4xx and 5xx status code in the Consultingwerk.OERA.JsdoGenericService.WebHandler package. Developers can use these interfaces for their custom error classes thrown from code executed by any of our web handlers (e.g. from within Business Entities executed by the RESTful interface or JSDO generic service). When an error implementing those Interfaces is thrown and catches by our web handlers, the corresponting http status is returned to the caller (browser, REST client).

SCL-2236 Business Entity Designer does now set an initial directory for the "Save As" Dialog

Description:

The Business Entity Designer does now the an initial directory for the "Save As" dialog. This directory is now either set based on the Business Entity Package (when that folder does already exist at the time of saving) or the "Initial Directory" setting of the Business Entity Designer settings.

New Feature

SCL-684 Cascade of delete operations (Parent / Child) throughout the Dataset

Description:

To provide more control about cascading deletes in the ProDataset we've added an additional variant of the DeleteCascade method in the DatasetHelper

    /**
     * Purpose: Deletes the record from the given ProDataset buffer and recursively
     *          deletes all child records
     * Notes:   Supports * as value for pcDeleteChildBuffers
     * @param phBuffer The handle of the ProDataset buffer with the record to delete
     * @param plDeleteRecord Delete the actual record
     * @param pcDeleteChildBuffers The comma delimited list of child buffer names to process
     */
    METHOD PUBLIC STATIC VOID DeleteCascade (phBuffer AS HANDLE,
                                             plDeleteRecord AS LOGICAL,
                                             pcDeleteChildBuffers AS CHARACTER):
