| Product | Cat | Subcat | Description | Type | Version | Priority |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AMT LION | Developer | Reports | 325278 / C2103-018 A new system Enum has been introduced, SE-TextAlignment, which can be used to set alignment of a graphical text label. |
NEW | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT COBOL | Control Center | Various | 329572 / C2103-020 In AMT Control Center > System Configuration > Transactions > Program Control, the screen showed all available programs, regardless of the value in Items/Page. Furthermore, it didn't show the total number of programs. The page now shows the total number of programs selected in Items/Page in the toolbar, and the total number of programs available. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Runtime | Various | 330407 / C2103-052 Stopping of unused agents needed improvements. Agent throttling has been added, and the minimum and maximum number of agents can be specified now, along with an idle timeout. Also batch request handling has been improved so jobs are balanced better. Note: The use of a maximum numbers of agents is not recommended in situations with more than one application. An unlimited number of agents does work under those circumstances. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Runtime | Various | 314377 / C2103-146 Sometimes, a Lion programmer needs to overrule the default strategy for the number of rows to be fetched from the database, for example if a form page consists of a specific number of rows that have to be filled. For this purpose, the <tablequery>.FETCHROWS (n) function has been introduced. Coding FETCHROWS before the tablequery.index/equal/start command sequence sets the number of rows to be fetched initially, and subsequently, if further fetching is necessary. Specifying FETCHROWS without a parameter, or specifying 0, resets the default number, so that the original strategy for forms or reports is resumed when database rows with <tablequery> are retrieved. The parameter passed to FETCHROWS must be a non-negative integer literal. NOTE: For AMT 97, FETCHROWS(n) does not apply to locked reads. This will be addressed in AMT 98. |
NEW | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT COBOL | Control Center | Various | C2105-095 The Transaction Server did not clean up expired sessions because the name of the Transaction Server was not recorded in the sessions. Therefore it was unknown which Transaction Server was responsible for cleaning up. The recorded data of each session now also contains the name of the Transaction Server it belonged to in it, so the Transaction Server can clean its sessions up on restart. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Developer | Various | 329979 / C2109-025 In the AMT Developer Studio, the 'Delete Application' option was removed from the 'Access' tab and moved to the 'Groups' tab. |
CHANGE | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Runtime | AmtScreens | C2109-050 In RTQuery, numeric values were aligned to the left, which caused unwanted visualisation of the result data. Numeric values in RTQuery are now aligned to the right, so that the layout of result data makes more sense. |
CHANGE | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Control Center | Various | C2111-027 Scripts showed a state of 'running' whereas they were actually waiting for an input request to be answered. The 'Running reports' screen, now shows input requests instead of state 'running'. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Control Center | Security | C2111-031 User names could contain whitespace characters in 'User creation' tab (under Security -> Users). This led to users being created with faulty user names, which could then not be linked to a role. If a user is created in the AMT Control Center (under the tab Security -> Users), the username is now checked for any illegal whitespace characters, and is rejected if they are found. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | Runtime | AmtScreens | 331691 / C2111-035 In AMT Screens, using the full-stop as a shortcut key to insert a comma, led to double commas. Also, it was impossible to use the full-stop on the numeric keypad as a shortcut key. Now, the comma does not occur twice anymore, and the full-stop on the numeric keypad can be used as a shortcut key. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | Runtime | AmtScreens | 330913 / C2111-040 In RTQuery, columns' widths in a result view were not resizing as required. Columns in the result view in RTQuery now resize as intended, using the correct resizing calculations. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | Runtime | AmtScreens | 330026 / C2111-041 AMT Screens crashed with message 'exception message : Session cannot be created, no application server or manager address defined', due to a faulty App.ini. There should have been a warning, not a crash, however. Error handling has been improved, so there is clear message now if an Application Server's address isn't configured correctly. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | AmtTools | Various | C2111-050 The AMT Opcon service logged to C:\AmtLogging, which was incorrect. The logging path of the AMT Opcon service is now correctly set to the AMT System logging path, set in the AMT Control Center. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | Runtime | AmtScreens | 331674 / C2111-052 In AMT Screens, MaskEditbox did not show empty when ClearEmpty was set and the MaskEditbox was focused. Due to improved handling of focus in combination with the ClearEmpty property of the MaskEditbox, the MaskEditbox is now cleared as intended. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Developer | Forms | 331726 / C2111-053 In AMT Developer Studio, the user option 'Default web enabled' didn't work if AMT Developer was closed after the settings had been changed and no new form had been created in the same session. Reading and saving of the ‘Default web enabled’ option has now been improved, so the option works as expected. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | Runtime | AmtScreens | 331676 C2111-054 In AMT Screens, Listview events didn't work if the Listview had a custom colour. The colour handling of a Listview cell has been improved, so that Listview events are handled correctly now. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | AmtTools | Reo | 331734 / C2111-056 Running AMT Reorganize on Oracle recreates the triggers each time the triggers are not using the OLD values. Now, if the OLD values are not used, AMT Reorganize no longer recreates triggers unnecessarily. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | AmtTools | Reo | 331740 / C2111-058 AMT Reorganize in Oracle environments was dropping/creating indexes in each run if the index was unique and had included columns, which AMT treats differently from Oracle. The index state is correctly identified now, and the unnecessary Drop/Create is no longer executed. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | AmtTools | Reo | C2111-062 AMT Reorganize crashed when {SCHEMA} was used in an SQL query object (view/trigger etc). This was an Alias problem. AMT Reorganize now uses ReplaceAliases in these situations and no longer crashes. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | AmtTools | Various | 331750 / C2111-064 When dealing with higher loads, AMT Batch Controllers often generated bug reports about lock timeouts, which indicated when to limit the number of concurrent jobs on a queue. The risk of this happening has been reduced by applying a different locking mechanism. |
FIX | AMT 97 | High |
| AMT LION | Runtime | AmtScreens | 331692 / C2111-065 In AMT Screens, the Up and Down keys didn't work correctly in situations with multiple occurrences of an Editbox. Handling of Editboxes has been improved, so that they recognize their parent control. Note: Up and Down keys work within tab sheets or in a whole form and if they aren't bound to a Panel or Groupbox. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT COBOL | Runtime | Various | C2111-073 DB2 function TIMESTAMP_ISO is now implemented in AMT COBOL. |
NEW | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Runtime | Various | 331750 / C2111-074 If 100+ reports were started simultaneously, some had trouble connecting to the AMT File Controller in time. This problem has been solved by increasing 'GetSpareState' from 8 to 20. |
FIX | AMT 97 | High |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Runtime | Various | C2111-076 Connection handling was incorrect if the AMT File Controller did not respond and a connection could not be made. It was assumed that a connection had been established when in reality there was no connection to the AMT File Controller, which caused Null Reference errors. Connection handling has been fixed, so that it now always throws an error if no connection has been made. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Developer | Various | 331767 / C2112-001 In AMT Developer Studio, menu items didn't follow personal display font settings (display option, F10). Handling of personal font settings has been improved, so that changed font sizes and other settings in AMT Developer Studio are now effective. |
FIX | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT COBOL | Runtime | Various | C2112-002 SQL functions LEFT and RIGHT have now been added to the AMT SQL syntax. Example: SELECT LEFT(FIELD, 1) FROM TABLE |
NEW | AMT 97 | Medium |
| AMT LION | AMT COBOL | Control Center | Configuration | 331782 / C2112-012 The value of option 'Run FileController inside BatchController' was not shown. The correct setting is now shown. |
