The following new features have been added to Version 1.1 of Adabas Client for Java:
The Adabas Client for Java programming interface has been adapted to Java conformance, and has been improved in terms of performance and usability. In addition, the search interface has been reorganized to support the enhanced search functionality. Unfortunately, this has led to some incompatibilities with Adabas Client for Java Version 1.0, which makes it necessary to recompile applications.
With Adabas Client for Java 1.1, the logging mechanism is based on the Simple Logging Facade for Java (SLF4J) framework. The framework is used in all components of Adabas Client for Java. Depending on your requirements, you can use various destination logging frameworks such as log4j, logback, jdk14 logging or simple logging to log or trace Java Client for Java. For further information on SLF4J, please refer to the web page http://www.slf4j.org/ .
With Version 1.1, Adabas Client for Java is able to administrate subdescriptors and super descriptors in the Adabas Data Designer. The subdescriptors and super descriptors can now be used in search queries.
A new example program, SuperdescriptorSearchExample, that supports this feature is included as part of the delivery.
Access from Linux/Unix/Windows platforms to non-UES enabled Adabas mainframe databases has been improved.
Some problems that occurred during FDT creation and Adabas Client for Java Map management have been fixed. The Adabas Data Designer can now handle FDTs that contain subdescriptors and superdescriptors, as well as other specific descriptors such as phonetic or hyperdescriptors.
Adabas Client for Java maps that contain super descriptors and subdescriptor fields can also be created.
A number of problems have been fixed with this Adabas Client for Java Version 1.1. For further details, please refer to the README file provided with the product.
Adabas Client for Java Version 1.1 requires Java Runtime V1.8 or higher.
