4.2.1

Release Date : June 14, 2007

Sort on table columns

In the table view, when the user clicks on a column header, the table is sorted according the column in ascending order. If he clicks on the same column a second time, it is sorted in descending order.

Enhancements of table display

The table view has been reorganized for a better display, a more intuitive interaction, and for future evolutions:

  • Table is full width on the HTML page.
  • Services on table and on its occurrences are grouped in a single "Actions..." menu.
  • The view configuration options are grouped in a single "View..." menu: filter display, tabular input mode, number of rows per page.

Archive option

The item Import / Export of the branch main menu has been renamed "Archives" which is a more generic name compliant with future evolutions.

Interactive import process

The import procedure has become more flexible so as to allow the user to choose at the finest level which changes to apply. It is very similar to the merge process.

Cache activity monitoring

The log category named "kernel" has an additional trace that provides a regular mesure of the cache activity:

  • memory statistics
  • number of loaded / reloaded blocs
  • number of index computations / recomputations

These statistics are logged at most once per minute and if loadings or computations are more than one hundred.
