Introduction

Version 2.5.2 is a GA version of AppBoard scheduled for release in March, 2015. This page summarizes the New Features, Resolved Issues, and Known Issues in the 2.5.2 release.

What is AppBoard

AppBoard is a data integration and data visualization platform that dramatically redefines the cost/benefit equation for the development and deployment of real-time business systems dashboards. AppBoard allows you to connect, integrate, visualize, and interact with your data in a simple, straight-forward builder environment. The end result is powerful, compelling dashboards that summarize data from multiple sources and can be accessed from any device.

Supported Platform Changes

AppBoard 2.5.2 introduces the following changes to the supported platforms:


New Features

This section describes the enhancements to AppBoard that are included in version 2.5.2.

  • Added a powerful new feature for configuring Actions in Widgets. Actions can now be selectively fired based on the specific data attribute (column) acted upon by the user, in any Widgets where this is supported by the Widget type. For example, different Actions can be applied based on clicking in different columns in a Table Widget. For more detail, see Action Filtering. (AB-928)
  • Upgraded Xalan and Xerces Apache libraries to versions 2.7.2 and 2.11.0 respectively. (AB-930)
  • When making JavaScript calls in the HTML Widget, enhanced the efficiency of data transfer by upgrading to pass the full data collection in a single request. (AB-929)
  • Enhanced the Database Query settings to provide a query timeout that will terminate the query if the timeout is exceeded. This includes options for a global system default query timeout, and a timeout for each individual query entity. (AB-896)
  • Enhanced the Export process to include the associated Data Sources when exporting a Stack. (AB-924)
  • Added a "Search Text Delay" timer configuration setting to the Show Search Text Option. The timer improves the user experience by deferring search processing to avoid unnecessary updates between keystrokes. (AB-954)
  • Updated the Flex SDK build version, which provided the following improvements: (AB-956)
    • Decreased SWF file sizes for the AB client, with savings in the order of 30%
    • Reduced total size of product installation package
    • Decreased un-cached loading time of clients the first time they access AppBoard


Resolved Issues

This section describes the resolved issues that are included in version 2.5.2.

  • Fixed an issue where The {webapp.home}/custom/ directory was being excluded from archives in the default configuration. For more information on customizing archives, see Backup and Recovery. (AB-802)
  • Fixed an issue where, in certain rare cases, the chart widget legends for all charts on a Stack would not display upon initial load. (AB-923)
  • Fixed an issue where map links were not preserved when completing an Export and Import for a Tile Map Widget. (AB-917)
  • Fixed an issue in the Scrolling Text Widget where in some cases the data did not display correctly in the Widget, especially if the data has only one value (row). (AB-941)
  • Fixed an issue with the HTML Widget. When reloading the HTML Widget, the callbacks were not called, which resulted in an empty frame. Fixed the Widget to call the callbacks when the Widget is first created and when the frame is reloaded. (AB-953)
  • Fixed an issue in the Table Widget which occurred when the administrator set a custom text color in the Theme Editor. The Widget was using the legend label color rather than the proper text color settings. (AB-964)
  • Fixed an issue where accented Spanish characters in an archive could cause the import or restore processes not to work properly. (AB-934)
  • Updated commons-fileupload and poi Java libraries to latest version to remediate security vulnerabilities. (AB-965)
