Release 2021-Q3
The most important changes made in the third quarter of 2021 are described below.
New mode of operation of the User Interface
Starting from the current version, when creating new forms in the User Interfacee, its new mode is activated by default, using the mechanism of plastic data structures known from the Data processing. (It is possible to switch between form operating modes by editing the form’s properties).
Optimization of the test mechanism in the Algorithms
The latest version of VSoft archITekt has an optimized component responsible for running business tests of the Algorithm. The mechanism of internal communication between models has been optimized, which translates into the largest observable increase in the efficiency of testing algorithms built from many nested models.
Possibility of making the WWW application available in the local network
For security reasons, the default Windows settings allow only a user working on a given computer to access the locally created web application.
Starting from the current release, VSoft Launcher has been expanded with the possibility of making the application under construction available within the local network. To do this, run it with elevated privileges - run as administrator.
Ergonomic changes to the Scheduling
The Scheduling now has an improved user interface. The changes concerned areas most often used in everyday work: easier filtering and searching for tasks, notification handling tabs; and with task support: improved access to the most frequently used functions and a clearer presentation of task details.
archITekt Studio: Easier creation of new application elements
The start page and the dialog for creating a new element in archITekt Studio have been redesigned, elements belonging to the same category are grouped by function.
In addition, the version server item selection dialog has been expanded with the ability to create a new item directly from its level. From now on, if we want to e.g. build a form, we do not have to prepare the data structure in advance - we can create it directly from the form designer.
archITekt Studio: The warnings and errors panel directs you to the problem site on the form
The validation mechanism for the Forms has been extended with the option of redirecting to the error site. After you double-click on the warning/error message, the problem item is highlighted on the form.
New VSoft archITekt documentation format
Documentation of the solution is available in the form of a website. Changing the way it is delivered increases our ability to update it and supplement it with a description of new functionalities of the platform as part of each release. It also gives the possibility of placing more extensive multimedia content.
As part of the current release, the documentation has been expanded with a series of videos (Learning Paths) describing the development of applications on the VSoft archITekt platform.
