1.0.0.957 - General feedback

Hi,

 I have been working with the newest build for a bit and noticed some things.

* The product desperately needs a way to disable actions temporarily. If there is one, I totally missed it.

* There appears to be something funny with expanding items in the log ("Show Expanded Name")  - I had an If -clause in the log, and expanding that resulted in an empty title. Re-clicking the button changed the title to read "Artifact Registration"

* Entry for if -clause having the exists -condition looks bit funny as ${Right} is appended to the condition.

* Controlling the execution flow based on existing files seems to be very cumbersome. I cannot really figure out a way to do it. There is an Exists -action, which use is bit unclear as it's only use appears to be to break the build, you cannot do any controlling based on that, and there appears to be no documentation for that either. There is the aforementioned Exists -condition for If -clause, but that apparently has nothing to do with files.

 

Hi Olli,

-Disabling of actions is something we’ve wanted to do for a while. Vincent is investigating that right now.

-Expanding names in the build log has now been fixed. Looks like something changed with the new jQuery.

-Working on this one atm

-I’ve changed the Exists action to If Exists. It’s now located in the Flow Control section of the stage editor and functions exactly like the normal If action that’s there now. The If action will continue to compare values/strings while the If Exists action will check for file/directory existence. They behave the same way though and can be used with the Else action.

Hi Olli

We should have a build with the changes later today. Everything has been fixed/implemented, we’re just working on some other issues we want to get fixed before putting out another build.

Hi Ollie

We should have a new build out today. We delayed putting out a new build on Friday as we discovered the jquery/jqueryui updates we pulled in last week broke datetime fields on triggers etc. We’re testing some alternatives now.

Ok, make that tomorrow… we have a new datetime control working, just need to do a bit more testing.
