7. Disabling a job via a configuration update would not always stop the job. #32183
8. Localization was missing for the server status application. #31247
9. Upload task:

Version 1.16.0 - 2010-11-19

Improvements (I)

1. For a report task where the output type is 'html' or 'htm', ibaDatCoordinator wil create an additional subdirectory in the output directory and place the report there. This is necessary because otherwise the images in the generated html (.jpg files) get overwritten by subsequent reports. The additional directory will have the same name as the .dat file without its extention.

Improvements (I)

1. You now get a warning when trying to refresh or delete .dat files, you then have the option to cancel the operation.

3. When the .dat directory that a job is supposed to monitor is missing, this no longer causes the job to stop. Instead the job will periodically check if the directory is created in the mean time and recommence processing .dat files as soon as the directory is created and .dat files start to arrive.
4. A couple of typos in the German dialogs fixed.

Bug fixes (B)

1. Certain types of invalid paths caused ibaDatCoordinator to throw an uncatched exception when pressing the "Test Path" button.

3. Occasionally when processing a large amount of files arriving very fast, the ibaDatCoordinator service crashed.

 

Version 1.14.10 - 2010-08-05

Improvements (I)

1. ibaDatCoorditator is modified to not process files that have the 'offline' attribute. This attribute is set by ibaPDA to indicate that it is still busy with the .dat file.

Version 1.8.1 - 2007-07-10

New features (N)

1. The number of times the DatCoordinator attempts to process a .dat file can be limited. After this limit is exceeded, such .dat files are put in a seperate list which the user can clean by selecting to either delete the .dat files or reset the info fields from the .dat files so the DatCoordinator treats them as newly generated files.
2. For a report, extract or conditional task it can be selected to have ibaAnalyzer monitored for memory consumption and duration of the task. When the time limit or memory limit is exceeded, the task will be terminated.
3. A new settings tab is added where the user can select a couple of options
   1. You can select whether or not the DatCoordinator service is automatically started when windows starts.
   2. A time interval can be specified to wait after windows startup before starting to process the .dat files.
   3. The process priority of the service or application can be specified.
   4. You can select to skip the initial scan for .dat files already existing before a DatCoordinator job was running.
      In this case only .dat files created while the job is running will be considered for processing.

Improvements (I)

1. The DatCoordinator now tries to connect periodically to the service instead of going permanently in offline mode.
2. The location of the logfiles is now fixed, i.e. it can no longer be set by the user, after installation a shortcut to the logfile directory is put under the iba DatCoordinator folder in the windows menu.

Bug fixes (B)

1. For extracting to files, report generation and the copy task, when selecting to have subfolders in de destination directory that are the same as in the source .dat directory, the DatCoordinator could accidentely delete subfolders from the parent directory of the destination directory instead of cleaning up subfolders of the destination directory. This could only happen if there where .dat files in the source .dat directory that weren't in subfolders. If the destination directory was a shared network map, it caused a crash instead of actual deletion of folders.
