Patch Releases 5.0.1 and 5.0.2 addressed a small number of bugs that were discovered in Release 5.0.0, as follows:
Release Notes for 5.0.1
APPX/Net, which was broken in 5.0.0, has been fixed for all platforms. (#2318)
Release Notes for 5.0.2
The appxODBC interface, which was broken in 5.0.0, has been fixed for all platforms. (#2347)
The Oracle interface did not work on HP PA Risc platform; it has been fixed. (#2348)
The uappxd connection manager did not honor startup process options when they are specified on the java client command line; this has been corrected. (#1485)
An error message was appearing when Help was selected for the Random Key Generation button in Database Management and FMS Controls; this has been fixed, and the Help text now appears properly. (#2381)
The Workstation address was missing from the View License Usage image in System Registration; this has been fixed. (#2386)
Audit History was not recording properly if multiple changes were made to multiple processes without exiting the process editor; this has been corrected. (#2389)
Repainting of scrolling screens has been fixed, to overcome a problem where not all records were being repainted. Also, display of parent screens after returning from a child process has been fixed to always repaint the parent records. (#s 2396, 2397)
The pull-down list for defining field types for work fields was not displaying; this has been fixed. (#2398)
An experimental algorithm for sorting child processes was inadvertently activated in earlier version 5 releases. It is turned off in 5.0.2; for releases 5.0.0 and 5.0.1, the environment variable APPX_OLD_CHILD should be set equal to the value 1 to prevent potentially serious unintended effects.
