4.9.000 Updates¶

Bugs¶

• Logs: the log lines containing a µ character where producing an xslt error in log search.

Modifications¶

• Dynamic host in web services. It is now possible to set the web service host name as "dynamic" so the host used in wsdl will be the host used when requesting this wsdl.
• The TABLE_GET_ROWS command can now deliver the resulting rows in a string object instead of a table object. With this feature, one can retrieve a complete table in a single string than can be parsed by the programmer. This increases speed.

New features¶

• REST connector. The rest connector, also called universal connector, gives full control to the user to the input request data and to the response. The programmer defines the REST urls in the application.dsc file and provides procedures that will process input and output data returned to the user. The procedure will receive all input data including HTTP method, headers, content, etc…. The REST connector also introduces a 2 steps login (token identification). This avoids sending the password from client to server.
• Applications urls. One can set pre-defined order urls at application level in the application description file. This allows simplifying and reducing the size of the urls sent to Nirva.
• A renderer can now set an HTTP return code.
