BrightstarDb v1.13 Release Notes

Release Date: 2017-10-03 // over 6 years ago

  • 🚀 This release includes a number of bug fixes, performance enhancements and feature enhancements. There is only one minor change to the REST API - the addition of some extra fields to the JobStatus JSON object. There are no other API changes and the store file format is unchanged.

    🚀 This is a recommended release for all users.

    🚀 Key changes in this release:

    🛠 FIX: Job date/time stamps are now displayed correctly in the browser HTML view.

    🛠 FIX: Browser UI now passes through the target graph URI when starting an import job.

    🛠 FIX: Polaris UI now passes through the target graph URI when starting an import job.

    🛠 FIX: The status message for a Statistics Update job now reports the percentage completed correctly.

    ✨ Enhancement: The Windows Installer now includes a VSIX to install the Entity Context and Entity Definition C# item templates into Visual Studio 2015. The VSIX will be installed automatically if you select the option to add the Visual Studio 2015 integration.

    ✨ Enhancement: The Windows Installer now includes a local copy of this documentation as well as the API documentation.

    ✨ Enhancement: The Windows Installer now includes a copy of the standard Entity Context T4 text template for those cases where it might be necessary to manually add the template to a project.

    ✨ Enhancement: JSON representation of Job status now includes a UTC date/time field that can be parsed more easily in Javascript.

    ✨ Enhancement: The Entity Framework code generators have been updated to support generating internal classes to implement public interfaces.

    ✨ Enhancement: Improvements to import to better alleviate low-memory conditions.

    ✨ Enhancement: It is now possible to detach an entity from one context and attach it to another context while retaining any locally made (unsaved) property changes.

    ✨ Enhancement: Added more of the XML Schema datatypes to the list of datatypes recognized and automatically converted by the Entity Framework. This enhancement adds support for xsd:int, xsd:positiveInteger, xsd:negativeInteger, xsd:nonPositiveInteger, xsd:nonNegativeInteger (which are all converted to Int32); xsd:normalizeString, xsd:token and xsd:language (which are all converted to String).
