Version 7.0.0.5479

May 27, 2016

This version of the Dodeca Framework uses the .NET Framework, version 2.0, Service Pack 1 and higher on the desktop. The components used in this version of Dodeca are SpreadsheetGear 2012 (7.4.7.104), NetAdvantage 2011, Volume 1 (11.1.20111.2042), Aspose.Cells 8.8.0.0, Syncfusion Essential Studio 11.3035.0.30, and GdPicture.NET 11.0.6.

This version of Dodeca has two server-side services that run inside a Java Application Server. The Dodeca service is supported and tested on Java 1.6. The Dodeca-Essbase service for all Essbase versions prior to, and including, Essbase 11.1.1.3 are supported and tested on Java 1.5. The Dodeca-Essbase service for all Essbase versions 11.1.1.4 and higher are supported and tested on Java 1.6. Both services are known to run on Java 1.7, although extensive testing has not been performed on that Java version.

This release contains the following changes:

Essbase Selector Treeview

  • To support the ability to control whether the Shared Members checkbox is visible in the Find area of the Selector Treeview control, and to control whether the checkbox is checked or unchecked by default, two settings have been added to the EssbaseSelectorTreeView selector list’s SelectorControlProperties: SharedMembersCheckboxChecked and SharedMembersCheckboxVisible

These settings represent an alternative approach to resolving an issue that was addressed in version 7.0.0.5388. This is an excerpt from the Release Notes:

Issue: When the member hierarchy displayed by the selector tree represents a shared member rollup and only a single selection is allowed, attempting to select a member from the Find results fails.

Resolution: The Shared Members checkbox is displayed and checked by default. When checked, the Select button can be used to find and select a shared member from the search results. #1429

The unintended side-effect was the possibility that with the Shared Members checkbox "checked" by default, selecting a member from the Find results in a hierarchy with multiple shared members, could take significantly longer than simply finding the base member. With the new settings, Shared Members checkbox can be configured as appropriate.

Essbase Views

  • Fixed Issue – Attempting to perform an Essbase send operation on a hidden sheet results in the following error: EsssbaseSpreadsheetGear.ActiveWorkshetIndex.Set failed. Cannot select a hidden sheet. #1462

This issue was introduced in version 7.0.0.5388 as the result of upgrading from SpreadsheetGear 7.1.2.150 to 7.4.2.102.

  • Fixed Issue – When an unknown member name (or alias) contains an XML special character, such as an ampersand, the unknown members may not be appropriately reported. #1467
  • Fixed Issue – An Essbase update (send) operation fails with a grid error message when suppress missing is True and all the data is suppressed. #1469
