• Added support for more descriptive licensing errors

• Allow user to cancel the execution of the tool

• The structure for the folder that contains the session data has changed

• The logs and output are optionally uploaded as part of the Assessment Model

• Controller Log is copied to the output logs folder

• Exception management related to the validation of the output path.

• Exceptions management related to progress descriptor has been improved to complete the progress if a code processor fails. Also, fixed the scenario in the Electron CGI adapter when all the code processors fail to send the corresponding event to the UI

• Add try and catch to methods where memory client information is retrieved in controller telemetry to avoid unhandled exceptions

• Support Progress Descriptor for any kind of scenario (0, 1 or more code processors)

• Fixed bug 381382: Cannot activate license of SnowConvert-SQLServer in Mac OS

• Fixed bug 381396: Path validation fails in Mac OS

Generic UI 3.0.1

Improvements

Fixes

• Fixed visual details in cancellation modal.

Actions to deal with breaking changes

• Update the Controller version to v3.0.1

• It is likely that the results card fails to load the ExecutionSummaryDto. This can be fixed by setting a subscription to the getExecutionSummaryDtoSubject. The code used to setup that subscription could look like this (in the ResultsCard component):

SetupSubscriptions() {
		this.subscriptions = new Subscription();
		const conversionInformationSubcription = this.conversionService.getExecutionSummaryDtoSubject().subscribe(
			result => {
			  this.ngZone.run(() => {
					this.executionSummaryDto = result;
			  });
		});
	  
		this.subscriptions.add(conversionInformationSubcription);
}

Contracts 1.3.1

Improvements

• Added IsAssessmentAutomaticallyUploaded to ICodeProcessorProduct.

• ILicenseManager was updated to return objects of type IError instead of only error messages

• Status now includes an error of type IError, which has a message, a kind and a severity.

• Added Fingerprint property to ILicenseModel

• Added methods: ICodeModelWriter.AddFingerprint and ICodeModelReader.ReadFingerprint

• Added IFingerprint and IFingerprintProfile

Assessment Model 2.3.1

Improvements

• Added Neo4jCsvTransformationTool

• Implemented PostDisposeCodeModelWriter for adding data to disposed inventories (currently CustomProperties inventory)

• Added support for fingerprints

• Added support for custom properties

• Added support for additional fields of inventories
