About this ReleasePatch release with minor enhancements and fixes
Modules affected

Installers, iShare GIS, iShare Maps, NLPG Importer, My Alerts, Publisher, Studio

Astun 3rd Party Installer

  • PostgreSQL 8.4 has been replaced with version 9.0
  • PGInstaller updated to handle selection of the Host or Port if desired.

Publisher

  • There is a new check box “Build index on Disk” which allows you to build the search index on the disk rather than in memory. This fixes the problem where creating indexes over an extremely large number of records caused the memory usage to increase until an “OutOfMemory” exception was thrown.
  • New Tags for Displaying Errors and a No Rows Message.

Displaying Errors

It is possible to apply custom formatting to error messages e.g. “No rows found” or other types.

This can be done by using code similar to the following:

##ErrorMessageStart##

<b>

##ErrorMessage##

</b>

##ErrorMessageEnd##

Any type of markup can be put between the Start and End tags. ##ErrorMessage## will be replaced with any error message that is generated.

No Rows Message

Show a message if no rows are found by adding the following tags directly under the ##DataShare.Data.RecordSetStart## tag:

##NoRowsMessageStart##

Your message here!

##NoRowsMessageEnd##

If there are not tags like these defined, then no data or message will be displayed in the case of no data being found.
