Calculations on date and time fields
Release notes for version 2.2.5 on January 30, 2012
New AddDays Heater
Using the AddDays Heater values can be added to date and time fields, or when negative, subtracted from them. Calculating with days, as suggested by the name of the Heater (function) is not all. By amending the default option in the configuration popup, you can also offset dates by years or months and times by hours, minutes or seconds.
TextFile Adapter with optimized preview
Release notes for version 2.2.4 on January 16, 2012
TextFile Adapter with optimized preview function
A preview in the TextFile Adapter in the export mode on the WRITE side is only shown when this is explicitly confirmed as wanted (click in the preview area). This significantly speeds up the processing of large CSV database export Definitions. It prevents extra accesses to records on the READ side being needed, because these could result in additional maintenance of the database server.
New Stop Heater/Function
Release notes for version 2.2.3 on January 02, 2012
Stop Heater for controlled termination of Definition execution
By making use of the new Stop Heater you can prematurely terminate an import/export run.
Two kinds of termination are possible:
- normal termination after processing of a specified number of rows
- immediate termination with a specified error message
