Advanced Notification

Microsoft .NET Framework to be Upgraded
Please note that IWS will be upgraded to use Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 in the near future. IWS currently uses .NET4.0. This change is being made to align with Eagle's core software, in 2015R2 the New UI upgraded to 4.5. If you do not currently have .NET4.5, you will need to download it once the change is made in order to access IWS. Microsoft .NET4.5 is backward compatible and will also work with the current version of IWS. We will also be introducing a new shortened .exe name for IWS to resolve some isolated issues with the filename length. When these changes are implemented, you will need to perform a one time action of uninstalling and reinstalling IWS. More details will be provided at that time. Testing is currently underway. These changes are expected to be implemented in the next several weeks.

Enhancements

Introduced New ExcludeElementsWithValue XSLT Parameter
XSLT translators were enhanced with a new ExcludeElementsWithValue parameter. This feature can be used by adding the XSLT General Params object and setting comma separated values for this parameter. Nodes with these values will be excluded from the result XML output.
This issue was tracked as Item #128761.
 
New Feature to Run Simple Template Solutions
IWS was enhanced with a new feature to allow you to run simple template solutions. You can now run transform and load solutions using Run button on Solution toolbar. After clicking on Run from the toolbar, the solution will be published and a Run MC Process window will be shown. You would then select a data file to pass into the process. For transform and load solution you are able to run only transform task. To do this, check Run Transform Only checkbox. Next, click Run and the file will be sent to MC Process.

  • For a xslt transform and load solution, the Run Transform Only flag is disabled since there is no separate transform task in this case. A separate MC Processes tab will open to display the run. Please note that the process execution takes some time. If the processes window is empty, click on the Refresh button in the top right corner of MC Processes tab to load the latest state.

  • There are still a few minor adjustments being made to this feature, but since you can now see the run button in the toolbar, it is included in the release notes.

Software Fixes

Removed Invalid Source Format Options
Previously, EagleML-2-0 and EagleDBML showed as format options on the Source side, but they were not actually valid choices. If you selected either, all format options on the Destination side would be grayed out. This caused some confusion, so the EagleML-2-0 and EagleDBML have been removed from the Source format options altogether. The XML source format should be used instead for these source types.
This issue was tracked as Item #128716.


Issues with XSLT Object Names Containing Spaces
If you named XSLT Lookup or XSLT Variable object using spaces, you received an invalid XSLT translator on export. The code was updated to resolve this issue. If spaces are used in the name, they automatically replaced with underscores.
This issue was tracked as Item #129074.


Duplicate Variables in ForEach Sub Worksheet
When you used both Lookups and Variables in XSLT ForEach subworksheets, you could get duplicate variables in exported code. The code was updated to resolve this issue. Duplicate objects are no longer generated.
This issue was tracked as Item #129075.


Improved Readability on Special Character Solution Name Error
If you entered a solution name that contained a special character that was not allowed, you would get an error message indicating this. However, the font color and sizing of this message made it difficult to see. The code was updated so that this error is more noticeable.
