Released: 2020-06-15

Version 1.3.14

This is the first release of the Ivercy 1.3.-line being released for general production use. Compared to the 1.2-versions there is a major redesign of the internal architecture. If you are using the MSSCCI-Connectivity, you will not notice any difference in the behavior of Ivercy (except for changes listed below).

The new architecture has been tested with MSSCCI-Connectivity for more than a year and is stable and fully supported. The new and optional Non-MSSCCI-Connectivity with custom connectors is still incomplete and should be considered beta-state.

(This version was originally released as preview/beta on 2020-04-15. There were no significant problems reported with this version, therefore we changed its status to “general release”. If you downloaded the version 1.3.14 as beta, there is no need to download it again.)

The changes listed here are compiled on the baseline of version 1.2.6. If you have been using any 1.3.-release, you already have parts of these changes.

Important Changes:

  • Feature: Exclude Objects from Ivecy. Useful for temporary objects that are created or modified by code in your application.
  • Feature: Custom Commands - Define custom external commands to be executed from within Microsoft Access development environment. Read the Custom Command documentation!
  • Feature: New, optional and still beta connectivity to Subversion using SharpSVN.
  • Feature: New SourceProcessingSetting Line_Replace
  • Feature/Bugfix: With TFS it’s possible to get an old version of an object from the history ("Get This Version").
  • Feature: Combined artifical status filters for new and out-of-date files in the repository.
  • Feature/Bugfix: Old log files are deleted when closing Access. (Default for "old" is 30 days or older, but can be configured.)
  • Bugfix: Ivercy does not ask anymore if you want to delete files from the repository that are not controlled.
  • Bugfix: (ADP-Projects only) No more error message "The given key was not present ..." when accidentally selecting a SQL Server table or view and invoking an Ivercy command.

Version 1.4.08

Bugfix release for a major problem with MSSCCI based source code control systems when creating a project from the repository.

Upgrade guide:

If you are upgrading from a previous version, which did not include the TfsEx or Git connector, and want to use either of new connectors, you should run the setup once to upgrade the existing installation. Then run the setup again and choose “Add/Remove Features” to add the new connector to your installation.


Changes in this version:

----- General -----

  • Feature: Some layout and usability fixes and improvements in Object List dialog.
  • Fix: Fixed setup to not remove optional features that were already installed.
  • Fix: Fixed some issues with error logging during initialization and shutdown.

----- All MSSCCI based systems -----

  • Fix: "Create from Repository" failed due to incomplete initialization of MSSCCI-Provider

----- Ivercy Git Connector -----

  • Fix: Rename of objects now will be properly recognized by Git.

 

Known Issues:

----- General -----

  • The SCC Status of the Data&Misc-Objects may be incorrect and not reflect local changes (Modified).

----- Ivercy Git Connector -----

  • The SCC Status of the Data&Misc-Objects may be incorrect and not reflect local changes and remote changes (Modified and Out-Of-Date).
  • Most Access source files are encoded with UTF16LE. Git does not support UTF16 text encoding and will treat those files as binary.

    Workaround: If you only use ANSI characters in the design of your database, you can enable the ConvertSourceFilesToSBCS option to use the default single byte character set.

  • Setup of remote repositories has only been tested with GitHub. – We aren’t aware of any issues, and it should work with any hosting service, it is just not tested yet.

  • Feature/Fix: Now Ivercy can handle a brand new, empty repository for your project and will create a new branch if required.
  • Fix: Out-Of-Date status will now be displayed reliably for objects that were modified in the local repository or in the remote (if configured). (Does not apply to Data&Misc-Objects, see below.)
  • Fix: Now Ivercy honors your selection of the repository branch even it was not the active (HEAD) branch at that time.
  • Fix: The Checkout command (as MSSCCI term) now just does nothing instead of throwing an NotImplemented exception.
  • Fix: Now SCC status will be displayed correctly for new objects just added to the repository.

  • Feature: A Client application can be configured to be run from the Ivercy ribbon.
