About This Release

This release of iShare is a patch release with the following enhancements and fixes.

3rd Party Installer

  • Changed to use heartbleed patched version of PostgreSQL.

  • FWTools has been removed. Is little used and was causing problems by setting environment variables.

 

iShare Core

  • Fixed a problem where an ampersand in the search stops the search working.
  • OGC layer link URL fields no longer have to be included in the list of included fields to work
  • Missing layers will no longer cause getows calls for multiple layers to fail
  • Resolved an issue where sharing a map file across multiple map sources which contain OGC layers would not work

  • The ogr string is no longer present in workflow notification failure emails.

  • ZoomToPolygon will now retry if the first attempt fails with a request more suitable for PostGIS layers.
  • OGC layers now work with Mapserver 6.4 and above

  • OGC thematic layers now use the correct styling for the ranges

  • Printing now uses filter(s) set for OGC layers on the map.

  • Review and revise URLs

  • The Organisations field from the "company" table was omitted in error from the Compass Address lookup.

iShare Maps

  • Fix issue with being unable to clear Show My/Find Nearest search results from the map

  • Fix problem with Firefox not hiding legend image for non-visible layers

  • If the MapSource parameter for the page is the name of a MyMaps MapSource then the MyMaps tab is used.

  • SearchLayer image requests would incorrectly fail if the Web/MaxCalls setting was set to a value lower than 3.

  • Semi-selected Layer Group now uses Browser's native "indeterminate" state for check box.

  • The map now honours the *StartUp Position" setting in a MapSource when loading the map for the first time.

  • Fix for My Nearest tabs not listing Layergroup panels in the order set in the MapSource if My House was configured to use more than one column.

  • The *Reset* button should now use a relative URL so that it doesn't fail where the web server thinks the host is different to the one be used by the browser.

My House

  • The "Find" text of the address search button is now correctly set according to the language file being used in My House.

iShare GIS

  • Databrowser height wasn't being overridden when height was altered.

  • Databrowser resizes no longer pin the databrowser in iShareGIS.

  • Fixed a memory leak with the Map Categories panel

  • Fix for issue caused by IE8 caching image dimensions.
  • The CSV and Excel export now works when there are multiple tables supplied

  • OGC thematic layers now use the correct styling for the ranges

  • Printing now uses filter(s) set for OGC layers on the map.

  • The address search loading icon is no longer covered by the Go button
  • The find nearest results are now cleared when you click on the Reset Layers button

  • The green location arrows are now removed when the layers are reset

  • The layer catalogue is now cleaning up after itself properly

  • The layer catalogue no longer slows down after pressing the reset layers button

  • There was duplication of code calls and web requests, getting rid of these, along with introducing of caching of legend images and loading legends after layers has sped things up a lot.

  • Using find nearest on OGC layers with filters now returns only points that match the filter

  • When used in an ADFS environment, the user group claims were appended to the "user@domain" string used in the iShareGIS front-end.
  • iShareGIS, SoloMaps and LiteMaps as well as independent use of iShare web services should now use the workspace specified in the Application Pool name.
  • Improved logging for ADFS
  • Adding layers from Layer Catalogue or via other plugins should not now result in 'loading' image not being replaced by legend graphic.

Studio

  • An Internal DataSource could not be created without using the "Construct" dialog. An Internal DataSource must be given a name but previously the Name field was disabled until after using the Construct dialog. The name field is now always enabled.

  • Corrected "Depends on previous job" to "Depends on previous task" in Task list for Workflow Job.

  • Fixed an issue where Studio would report a "502 Bad gateway" error while trying to contact MapServer

  • Fixed an issue where Map Editor would raise an error if a path was wrapped in apostrophes rather than quotes

  • Fixed the check to make sure that a Map Source doesn't already exist when the user tries to import a new one

  • OGC and thematic layers now save the Find Nearest information correctly
  • Reduced the scope for Studio Workflow to wipe stored procedure argument values.
  • Resolved an issue where Studio would raise an exception about invalid characters in a map file
  • Some Astun SQL functions were not communicating errors to Workflow so it would assume that they had worked successfully.
  • Studio Workflow now tries to work out which one of identically named stored procedures is to be used.
  • Studio now calls atversion.aspx successfully when the external site requires authentication
  • Studio now no longer truncates map file layer names with spaces or special characters in them
  • Studio now saves the startup values correctly when they are set to zero.
  • Studio will now no longer raise an exception when you try to create a scheduled task, but ask if you have permissions to the tasks directory

  • The Create New Mapsource functionality error messages have been improved, and the save dialog is now more intelligent on where it first opens

  • The Import Existing Mapsource functionality and error messages have been improved, and the open dialog now opens in the correct directory

  • The OGC layer link field names are no longer being truncated

  • The OGC thematic point colour will now load correctly

  • The SLD editor will now accept symbolizers tags that start with "ogc:"

  • The available field list will now stay in the correct order after changing them and saving the layer

  • The geometry column is no longer "forgotten" by the OGC layer after it is saved



Studio will now retry refreshing the external server using the user's credentials if the external server requires authentication

The mapsource will no longer become corrupted after moving a layer up or down and then saving

Workflow

Better matching of workflow parameter values (again).

Resolved the issue where a task would not appear in the list if it's name was a subset of another tasks name

 

The stored procedure parameter edit text box is no longer partially covered by the comments box

 

 

OGC issues

OGC layers My Nearest now will return the correct nearest points

Resolved an issue where OGC layers would occasionally be rendered as either red dots or red polygons depending on the layer type. There appears to be a bug in Mapserver 6.2.0 which stops this working so we advise avoiding that version.

 

 

 

The hyperlink field no longer needs to be in the field list for the hyperlinks to work

iShare can now be configured so that the Web application will automatically refresh configuration settings after the WebService had them reloaded.

 

The link this field in OGC layers will no longer be empty when it should be populated

 


 

 

In situations where the same {{layerName}} had somehow been configured for more than one layer, each of those layers was written into the generated .map file a number of times equal to the number of duplicate layer names.

Stopped the getows calls failing if one of the layers doesn't exist

 

 

Fix issue with AD FS where an error response was generated if nothing found in the Identity's Name attribute.

Popups will now display the correct text

 

 

  • No labels
