Ganymede developer pre-release 2b, dev2b.tar.gz, is now available from
ftp://ftp.arlut.utexas.edu/pub/ganymede/
or
ftp://129.116.212.1/pub/ganymede/
if your client has trouble resolving a proper address for
ftp.arlut.utexas.edu.
This is a bug fix release, primarily to fix the bug showing up in the
GASH schema that Curtis King (curtis.king@cul.ca) reported, but we
fixed a number of other small things, including a couple to make
Ganymede work better with the Swing 1.0.2 release from JavaSoft.
-------------------- Changes from dev2a to dev2b --------------------
RELEASE DATE: 4 May 1998
1. [SERVER] Creating New Objects With Embedded Objects.
In dev2a, creating objects whose initializeNewObject() methods
created embedded objects would fail with a NullPointerException. This
was due to the object being initialized before being added to the
transaction's working set, and caused NullPointerExceptions when
creating users with the GASH schema.
2. [CLIENT] Queries Were Not Attached To Tree Nodes Before Loading.
In the client, if a user tried to issue a query on an object base
folder in the tree prior to opening the folder, a null query would
be issued, and no results would come back.
3. [CUSTOM] Groups Field Broken In nisonly User Object.
When using the nisonly schema, adding groups to the user's group
list was not working properly. The home group choice box was not
updated properly, and the change to the group list would not be
committed properly.
4. [CLIENT] Editable/non-editable Choice GUI Component Logic Fixed.
The release of Swing 1.0.2 from Javasoft has revealed a logic error
that would invert the editability status of a choice list. It is now
possible to manually enter arbitrary strings for the shell field in
user objects in the gash and nisonly schemas.
5. [CLIENT] Tab Pane In Object Windows No Longer Transparent.
Another bug that showed up when running the Ganymede client against
the 1.0.2 Swing release. With Swing 1.0.2., the tab panes in dev2a
were transparent, allowing obscured windows to show through.
