AMT LION	Runtime	Web Client	326609 OnEnter was not processed when triggered by a SetFocus in some web clients When the Editbox is focused by the .setfocus property, the OnEnter event is not properly triggered in Edge, Opera, Firefox or Chrome, however, it did work in Internet Explorer. The .SetFocus property will trigger additional events in newer browsers which were then handled in parallel, while in Internet Explorer the events would be executed later in the process. Therefore Internet Explorer did work. OnEnter and OnExit events will now be queued and will be triggered when the result had been processed to perform as supposed.	FIX	AMT 56
AMT LION \| AMT COBOL	Control Center	Configuration	321726 Error when clicking on Alias or Filegroup tab Selecting the Alias or Filegroup tab in the Control Center database settings will give and error if the general database settings have not been saved yet. The following error would be thrown: "The parameters dictionary contains a null entry for parameter 'databaseId' of non-nullable type 'System.Int32' for method 'System.Web.Mvc.JsonResult GetDatabaseAliasList(Int32, Int32)' in 'Asysco.Amt.ControlCenter.Html5Web.Controllers.ConfigurationController'. An optional parameter must be a reference type, a nullable type, or be declared as an optional parameter. Parameter name: parameters". Once the database has been added, you can safely work with those two tabs. The Alias or Filegroup tab are now hidden until the general settings are saved.	FIX	AMT 56
AMT LION	Runtime	AmtScreens	C1901-073 Numeric Editbox does not handle overwrite correctly. When trying to overwrite characters in the Editbox, by using the insert key on a keyboard in AMT screens, the input is sometimes blocked. This would especially happen when the Editbox was almost filled. Hence, it wasn't possible to overwrite the text. The behaviour regarding overwriting values in a numeric Editbox, by using the insert key, has now been improved.	FIX	AMT 56

Now, a hyperlink can be clicked and a browser will automatically be opened and navigate to the selected link.	FIX	AMT 56
AMT LION	Runtime	AmtScreens	328246 AMTScreens When exporting data to a CSV file from the RTQuery data-grid was placed on a single row. In the case one would export RTQUERY results into a CSV-file, all rows would end up on one single row, whereas it should be written on to separate lines like the header. The results end up on the same row because the CR/LF symbols were missing after each line. This behaviour is corrected and the results from the RTQUERY data-grid will now be added to separate rows.	FIX	AMT 56
AMT COBOL	Runtime	Various	C1906-111 Difference of two dates Finding the difference of two dates is possible in DB2 and the result is returned as a date (the function of subtracting two dates does not exists in SQL Server). A new function is added to the AMT Framework (AMT_DB2_DATE_DIFF) to subtract two dates. This function will only be utilized when working with SQL Server. The REO will only do this if the system is migrated from IBM/DB2.	CHANGE	AMT 56
AMT COBOL	Developer	Various	C1906-114 Added SI-PREVFORM in AmtCobol. The System Item SI-PREVFORM - already known in AMT LION - has now been introduced in AMT COBOL. This (read-only) System Item contains the name of the previous active form. Developers can, for instance, use this System Item to check if it is the first time that a form is sent to the client, which enables one to set some initial values. E.g. IF NOT SI-CURRFORM =SI-PREVFORM .... END-IF SI-PREVFORM can only be used in WS-TO-FORM, in other places it will act identical to the behaviour of SI-CURRFORM.	NEW	AMT 56
AMT COBOL	Runtime	Various	C1906-116 Switching between EXEC CICS READNEXT & READPREV returned wrong record. FOR CICS IBM/MIFO AMT COBOL ONLY When using READNEXT to browse through a VSAM file and then then reversing the direction by using READPREV (or vice versa). AMT COBOL had to reset the search with the current key, usually resulting in returning of the same record. Switching between READNEXT and READPREV now does a browse reset and will return the correct record.	FIX	AMT 56
AMT LION \| AMT COBOL	Runtime	Scripts	C1906-118 Added functionality to backup VSAM DB files. In the CMD scripts a COPY of a VSAM file is done to create a backup. This file is converted to a database table in the migration project and a means to backup this table/file has to be provided. This change adds two functions to the AMT PowerShell library, a backup and a restore function. These can be used instead of the COPY to create and restore a backup of the specified VSAM (which is migrated to a database table).	NEW	AMT 56
AMT COBOL	Developer	Code Logic	C1901-007 Changed COMP-2 type implementation to use up to 17 digit precision. COMP-2 floating point type could be more precise. Precision was changed from 15 to 17 digits as needed. This means a variable like 01 TESTCOMP USAGE COMP-2 containing a value 10324036.004089056 is not rounded to 10324036.0040891 anymore.

AMT COBOL	Developer	Code Logic	C1907-003 Fixed locking issue in VSAM files in database. For the new VSAM files in database implementation (C1904-019) a lock request timeout occurred when a record was written and locked for update. This issue is resolved with this fix.	FIX	AMT 56
AMT LION \| AMT COBOL	Runtime	Web Client	326967 Using Windows Authentication on Application Center and Control Center throws an exception for users who are not authorized. In the case where Windows Authentication is used and the users are not allowed into the Application Center or Control Center, the AMT Framework should throw a user-friendly Error-message instead of throwing the default browser message. Currently, users would see an error stating that the web.config needs to be modified or the message "automatic creation of user failed because of: "userrejected"" when more details are allowed. Now the AMT Framework will return a more user-friendly error and adds the exception in the internal logging. Regardless of this, Companies could choose to add their own message instead.	CHANGE	AMT 56

AMT LION	Runtime	Various	327943 The Port of Application Server was not released in cases where it was stopped during debug sessions where reports were still running. Reports would not be terminated in the cases where the application server is stopped when a Debug-session is still connected to a report. In this case, the DebuggerHost would be terminated leaving the report running orphaned. This would result in circumstances where the TCP Port remained occupied by this process and would not be freed again. When one would start a new application, this process would halt as both processes would listen for the same TCP Port. Now when the application server is stopped, any process being debugged at that time will also be terminated allowing the port to be released again The app server ports would remain in use by the old app server process while a report in debug was still running even if the appserver was stopped or killed. When the application server is stopped any process being debugged at that time will also be terminated allowing the port to be released again.	FIX	AMT 56
AMT COBOL	Runtime	Jobs/Batches	C1907-015 AMT COBOL writes trailing spaces to print file. In AMT COBOL, when writing records to 2 files with varying record lengths, the deviating length could cause the records in the second file to be supplemented with trailing spaces. When an AMT COBOL program is executing WRITE statements on a File Definition (that has a length of 20) and then executes a WRITE-statement of a File Definition (that has length 10), it will internally share the same print layout. This would cause the records of the smaller File Definition to be enlarged with spaces to ensure both File Definitions are of an equal length of 20 characters. In AMT COBOL, when writing records to 2 files with different record lengths, this should no longer cause the files to be supplemented with trailing spaces.	FIX	AMT 56

Known issue: Sometimes RTQuery returns no results from a table which does contain results.
Workaround: Selecting another table and after the original table will give the correct amount of results.

The Database Configuration FileGroup, In the Control Center, didn't work well.

In the System Configuration -> Architecture -> Database, in the tab sheet 'FileGroup/TableSpace' of one of the databases,
a filegroup can be specified. When one would select a SQL Server Database, the 'Kind' would always be saved as 'Other'. Even when '[Default indexes]' or '[Default Tables]' was selected.

The FileGroupType is now correctly saved and it can now be used as described in the help

Some keywords were still missing/wrong highlighting.
This would, for instance, happen with a few keywords where space would follow, like, ".enabled [", or ".Caption [".
This would also happen with some keywords in case there is a colon in front of the keyword, like; ":STOREDPROC("
Finally, some keywords were not recognized when it would end with a number.

The maximum number of connections of webservices is limited to 10

The maximum number of connections can cause the webservice to fail.
This occurs in the situation when you have more than 10 different operations designed and active at the same time.

The problem is solved by generating the station as a unique station and implement the maximum number of concurrent calls per service instead of limiting to all one service.
The default concurrent maximum is 100 per active operation.
