Release Notes

Public

8.0.16.3057: Mar 08 2019

New

GUIs: Improved password management for encrypted servers. Now, if the user enters an incorrect password the 'encryption configuration' dialog appears in order to allow the user to enter the correct one, instead of having to edit the 'cryptedservers.conf' file manually.

Bug

Gluon for windows: The workspace name appeared in two locations when the user entered or exited the configuration mode in the Workspace Tree view. Now it's fixed.

Bug

Windows GUI: we fixed the performance of the add operation. Once again, adding in the GUI is just as fast as with the command line (cm).

We didn't notice the slowdown in the GUI sooner because all our performance tests are done with the command line. But, of course, the performance in the GUIs has to be just as good as with the cm.

Linux and macOS GUIs were not affected.

Bug

The update operation didn't report the proper error when downloading a file bigger than 4MB and it wasn't completely downloaded. Fixed.

Bug

SemanticSCM: Under some circumstances, the semantic differences were not calculated fine when the source files were very large and several differences were being calculated concurrently (e.g. analyze refactors and file diffs). This is now fixed.

Bug

Windows GUI: after an update operation, the gui would freeze for a while if the update had to report a lot of errors. This is now fixed.
