Overview

Changed:

<
<

Release 5.5.0 has many new features for Application Designers, System Administrators and Users. To accommodate the new screens and new features, we have increased the minimum rows and columns in the client. For normal users (ie, those not using Application Design) we recommend a size of 25 rows by 100 columns. For Designers, we recommend a size of 35 rows by 144 columns. The following gives you an overview of the changes in each area. If the clients are not using these screen sizes, they will not use the new designs or be able to use the new features.

This page gives you an overview of the changes in each area.

Compatibility with Previous Releases

This release adds some new ILF commands (DEL ALL, SQL and EXITREAD) as well as the ability to comment a block of ILF. These features are not compatible with previous releases. If you use these features and install your application on an older release, then any process that uses the new ILF commands will not compile. If you have commented a block of code, older releases will not recognize this and treat the code as if it was not commented. If you avoid using these features, you will be able to develop under 5.5.0 and deploy in an earlier release, although 5.5.0 specific features (such as explicitly setting a column heading on a Table) will be ignored.

In most cases, we tried to combine GUI Attributes and Additional Attributes on one screen.

Line: 46 to 47

For users, we updated the look of the Disposition, Record Selection and Sort Orders screens to make them more contemporary and easier to use. Users can also email reports directly from APPX (requires the installation of the 'mutt' email client). Record selection and Sort Order parameters can be saved and recalled for reuse. Tables can be used in place of the normal SCAN displays.
