We are announcing the availability of the SmartFramework ERD Designer
Following the release of the OpenEdge 11.7 Release we have completed our testing of the SmartComponent Library on this release of Progress and are proud to announce formal support for the SmartComponent Library on OpenEdge 11.7 with the 2017-04-24 release of the SmartComponent Library. Generally we recommend customers on OpenEdge 11 to upgrade to OpenEdge 11.7 quickly. Starting the 2017-07-14 release we are supporting OpenEdge 11.7 Service Pack 1 (11.7.1).
Starting the 2015-10-09 release the Business Entity Designer will feature a start page with links to most recent release note articles on this site.
With SCL-751 we have adopted native Enums for OpenEdge 11.6. To activate this feature customers must add a definition to products.i. SCL-751 provides details for this.
With SCL-1113 we have modified the templates for SmartWindowForms and SmartTabFolderPages generated from the Business Entity Designer. We have removed the initialization of the viewer controls SmartTableIOState property (value was set to "NoDataSource" within the InitializeComponent method). Customers using their own set of templates should adopt the same fix to their templates.
During our tests on OpenEdge 11.7.3 we have experienced the following issues:
The issue has been resolved by Progress Software with hotfix 007 for OpenEdge 11.7.3.
During our tests on OpenEdge 11.7.2 we have experienced two issues:
We consider it mandatory for customers using OpenEdge 11.7.2 to use at least the release #44166@2017-11-27 of the SmartComponent Library.
Due to an fix for
from Progress Software for in OpenEdge 11.7.2.001 we further recommend all customers to apply this hotfix as well.
We have updated proparse with further enhancements in this release (see https://github.com/consultingwerk/proparse/releases/tag/4.0.1.1177). Please download the .NET Assemblies ZIP file from our ESD and replace the proparse.net.dll in your environment with the latest one. The new assembly reference is:
|
As proparse is used by our Business Entity Generator, this new version of the proparse.net Assembly is also relevant for customers not doing GUI for .NET development and require support for parsing new ABL language constructs.
This version of proparse provides additional debug information when errors are thrown from proparse.net.dll.
To support the new SmartFilterControl and the "Filter" link between the SmartFilterControl/SmartDynamciFilterControl and a SmartBusinessEntityAdapter or SmartDatasetChildAdapter we have updated the Consultingwerk.SmartComponents.dll. The new Assembly reference is:
<assembly name="Consultingwerk.SmartComponents, Version=2.2.0.49856, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=10603cb31df311b3"/> |
Customers need to update this Assembly in order to compile the latest releases of the SmartComponent Library.
We've updated the SmartHybridRealm class used for http authentication to leverage the IAuthenticationService. It is therefor required that for AppServers requiring http Authentication (e.g. REST or Web) the correct IAuthenticationService implementation is registered (using service.xml files).
Customers relying on the previous behavior should ensure that the Consultingwerk.SmartFramework.Authentication.AuthenticationService is regsitered as the IAuthenticationService. This implementation will auhtenticate users against the password stored in the SmartUser database table.
When users with no Login Company set should be able to login using the SmartHybridRealm, it's required to set the Login Company Tennant Domain (similar to the field in the Login Company Maintenance) in the .restapplicationsettings / .applicationsettings, e.g.:
"DefaultAuthenticationDomain": "consultingwerk" |
This is required as the Hydrid Realm Interface from Progress does not provide the domain name to the authentication method.

Starting August 14th 2016 we ship our source code also as UTF-8 encoded. The ZIP files ending with _utf8.zip contain the source code encoded with that code page. The source code in the remaining archives is still encoded in ISO8859-1. Also on Github there is a new branch containing the OpenEdge 11 based source code in UTF-8.

Some customers have seen this error returned to the client when a Business Entity was using the Translation Provider.
We are now clearing the error status in the Translation Provider before returning to the caller after failed attempts to locate records in the Translation Provider internal cache temp-tables.
We have fixed an issue where the "New Business Entity Wizard" in the Legacy Browse Migration Form did not respect field mapping (e.g. replacing hyphens in field names) when creating fields for the primary unique key.
We have implemented rendering support for the "Unbound" attribute of fields in Angular viewers. The Unbound attribute is optional and can be set for components that should not be data-bound to fields from the JSDO Data Source.
We have implemented an Auto-Layout function for the Business Entity Designer. The function can be invoked from a Button in the Business Entity Designer Ribbon.
The following Assembly references have changed to support this feature:
<assembly name="Consultingwerk.Support, Version=4.2.0.59263, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=10603cb31df311b3"/> <assembly name="Crainiate.Diagramming, Version=5.0.1.59263, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=10603cb31df311b3"/> <assembly name="Crainiate.Diagramming.Forms, Version=5.0.1.59263, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=10603cb31df311b3"/> |
We have removed access to the MonitorDropDownBehavior property of Infragistics UltraToolbarsManager. This property is not used by our code, however the Progress Developer Studio visual designer seems to be adding this to some forms with a default value.
The property is not available in the UltraControls version Progress ships with OpenEdge 11.7.2 so that was is causing issues for some customers.
To improve debugging of issues with an incorrect (or not connected) authenticationDb setting in the .applicationsettings or .restapplicationsettings file we have now implemented a GetDbClient method in the DatabaseHelper. Like the SetDbClient method it provides clear error messages about which database name caused the GetDbClient to fail.
Customers might have seen this error message in the Repository Viewer or Grid Designer:
The parameter value "" for pcDataType in Consultingwerk.Util.DataTypeHelper is invalid. Call Stack: ToSystemType Consultingwerk.Util.DataTypeHelper at line 1549 DisplayProperties Consultingwerk.Windows.Framework.Repository.Object.SmartPropertyGridControl at line 129 ... |
We have improved the error message to include details about the property causing this issue. We have also corrected the definition of a single property in the repository causing this issue.
Customers have reported .NET Exceptions when loading the SmartFilter control.

To improve debugging we are now handling errors raised during the control initialization before they are thrown to the .NET side.
We have improved the error messages raised when the toolbar definition files (JSON) are not available, e.g. as a result to references to our demo file in the default .applicationsettings or .restapplicationsettings files.
Previously a message from the JSON Object Model Parser was shown. Now we raise a clear error message including the invalid file name.
We have resolved an issue in the rendering of responsive viewers for the Angular UI.
The issue occurred when there was only a single component (e.g. GroupBox) directly contained in the viewer. The result was an empty viewer JSON markup.
We have now implemented support for translations on the error messages raised by the Service Interface when the Request Authorization Provider indicates that the user is not authorized for the current request.
The error message can now be localized using the SFR 210 error message.
Legacy GUI Migration now suggests the short name of the .w file as the name for the repository object when creating a viewer or browser in the Repository.
We have resolved an issue in rendering Angular Viewers. Like in this example components with no label, like the one button on this screenshot have had the label or a (more or less) random other field inherited.
This issue is resolved now.
!screenshot-1.png|thumbnail!
We have now implemented support for rendering custom style attributes for GroupBox components in Angular Viewers.
The SmartComponent Library Studio Desktop now remembers the most recently launched tool and repositions to this tool when starting.
We have implemented a new helper class that supports performing a form based login when using the ABL http client to perform (REST) requests to a PASOE instance secured by the form based login model.
The Consultingwerk.Framework. http .FormBasedLoginHelper class provides methods that perform the login an return the JSESSIONID Cookie instance required for actual calls to the PASOE backend.
