| 15.1 | Samuel Habiel | 06-20-2019 | ## Authors for version 15.1 Sam Habiel (SMH) & David Wicksell (DLW) ## Changes for version 15.1 Changes with * have Integration Tests. - Code to save routines is now VPE's own built in code. Previously code to save routines was obtained from Fileman if it is installed. This was found because Fileman had a bug in saving % routine on GTM/YDB. Use of Fileman in preference to VPE is not in accordance with VPE's VistA indepdendent philosophy.* (DLW) - Due to a bug in how a logical condition apropos De Morgan's Law, ZLINK was not invoked on GTM/YDB when saving a routine. This bug was introduced in v13.0; the code was correct in v12 (the pre-XV version).* (DLW) - If a routine contained over 999 lines, the line counter at the top didn't show the number correctly. This is now fixed.* (test not active as it takes too long to run) (DLW) - Syntax highlighting parameters have been improved: ESC key aborts changes; selected colors can be seen in real time while selecting them.* (DLW) - Parameter selection for width and height are limited at the lower bound of 80 x 24 as the routine editor is glitchy with a lower selection.* (DLW) - Previously VPE had a facility for automatically stripping spaces, but only when the backspace key was pressed. This interfered with Syntax Highlighting; so this feature was removed; this aside from the fact that this behavior is very counterintuitive and undocumented. Future enhancements may add stripping of trailing spaces when saving a routine. (DLW) - General improvements to Syntax Highlighting code introduced in 15.0. (DLW) - New features and bug fixes of ESC-G to from 14.0: (SMH) - As previously ESC-G at ^ will get you the full global reference until the ending parentheses.* - ESC-G at the opening parentheses will display the global data under the global name only.* - ESC-G at any comma of the subscripts will get you the global up to the subscripts before the comma.* - Fixed help text for ..E/..VRR to describe how to use ESC-G with these changes. - (bug fix): ESC-G resolves $ expression (ISVs, intrinsic functions, or extrinsic functions) inside of global references. $J is kept, anything else is discarded.* - (bug fix): Expressions with nested parentheses inside a global reference (e.g. `$P($G(RXFL(RX)),"^",0)`) are discarded correctly.* - In all the above cases, ESC-G tries to substitute any expressions or variables (with the exception of $J as mentioned above) with the continuation character (:) when sending the input into ..VGL.* - Removed upper limit on ID. Previously, in VistA instances such as the CPRS Demo (aka VEHU), you couldn't log-in with users with DUZ in the billions because VPE did not allow that. Fixes Issue #23.* (SMH) - Upgrade and Uninstall instructions printed to the user upon installation were not correct. They are now fixed. (SMH) - Tell user about old VPE if it is installed during installation.* (SMH) - Branched to routines didn't ZLINK when saved because they did not use the correct entry point for saving. This is now fixed.* (SMH) - Prevent ESC-ESC from exiting the routine save dialog. This is contrary to VPE philosophy, where all dialogs are escapable using ESC-ESC. However, in this specific case, many new users held the ESC key for too long when trying to save a routine, with the result that they lost the routine when they escaped from the save dialog. Fixes Issue #29.* (SMH) - Remove VGL/VEDD drill down restriction. If you invoke VGL or VEDD from the Menubar from ..E/..VRR after having branched down two routines, you were prevented. Fixes #39. (SMH) - In VGL, display global references being shown next to the session number; and show the global if we are telling the user that there is no data. These improvements were made to address the fact that ESC-G in the routine editor auto-resolved what global it was by substituting variables, but it was not obvious to the end user what did ESC-G finally select as the global to search.* (SMH) | |
| 15.0 | Samuel Habiel | 05-01-2019 | Level 3 | ## Authors for version 15.0 David Wicksell ## Changes for version 15.0 - Syntax Higlighting in editor and viewer (not turned on by default; go to ..PARAM to turn it on) - Add - Fix bug with routine branching support - Fix routine size support for YottaDB/GT.M on Linux - Add new shell parameter documentation for screen sizing - Add enhancements to auto margin screen handling in ..PARAM |
| 14.2c | Samuel Habiel | 10-04-2017 | Level 3 | Minor fixes for Unit Tests so that they run on Cache. |
| 14.2b | Samuel Habiel | 09-28-2017 | Tiny fix to the testing script. | |
| 14.2a | Samuel Habiel | 09-26-2017 | Forgot to push testing code corrections in the Github release + testing instructions + VPE 14.2 RSA attached to this journal article. | |
| 14.2 | Samuel Habiel | 09-25-2017 | Support for Unit Testing via Pexpect using the OSEHRA testing framework. | |
| 14.1 | Samuel Habiel | 08-16-2017 | Changes for version 14.1 - Code implementing backspace/delete dichotomy in VPE parameters did not work correctly. This is what Kevin found and fixed. - Fileman files automatically installed without any questions being asked when you run VPE via ^XV. - Relicensing code to Apache 2.0. - Tiny changes here and there to please XINDEX. Almost all of VPE now passes XINDEX. | |
