New CTools Releases - 14.03.07
We're finally ready to announce the release of a new stable set of the ctools. It's the first one after the release of pentaho 5.0.It took us lots of time to get to a stable version; There has been a huge refactor to allow the new 5.0 plugin structure and still be able to run on 4.8.
Install it
Get it from the Marketplace
This time we decided that we won't have independent installers for the ctools; The preferred way to install it is from the Pentaho Marketplace. If you don't have it on your 5.0 installation, get it from download the Marketplace from CI and unzip into your pentaho system folder.You should now see a new branch with the stable version of the Ctools.
Important note: Make sure all the Ctools component (CDF, CDA, CGG, CDE) are on the same branch. For Pentaho 5.0 EE you may need to uninstall CDF v5.0.x and install it again
Ctools installer
Since a while back, ctools installer now works both on 4.x and 5.0, so you can use it also this installation method.Enterprise Support
There's something that we've been working on internally at Pentaho and we're going to announce soon. Respecting the Project Maturity Classification, we're going to roll out official support for the Ctools for EE customers through the regular support channel.That will include, to start, full level 4 support for the CDF version that comes bundled with Pentaho 5.0.x and 4.8.x, and level 3 support for the entire ctools suite (CDF, CDA, CGG, CDE) for the latest stable version. On this case, 14.03.07.
When rolled out, EE customers will have the ability to fill bugs to the ctools projects. A huge step forward :)
Changelog
CDF 14.03.07
Changelog for Pentaho 4.x:
* Got back on track with the cdf releases after the Pentaho 5 release
* [CDF-246] Upgraded OpenLayers to 2.13.1
* [CDF-245] Replaced tile map server on CDF reference "MapComponent (custom)"
* [CDF-244] Replaced Geolocation service: now using openstreetmaps
* [CDF-241] Updated documentation of Button Component
* [CDF-235] Pre-condition support for server-side action while clicking on a ButtonComponent. If expression() returns false, the action is not executed
* [CDF-230] Added support in CPK query type for kettleOutput and stepName control parameters.
* [CDF-227] Fixed bug where initializing CPK queries was not copying defaults.
* ActionComponents call render on update instead of draw
* [FIX] (SchedulePrptComponent IE9/8) Use of badly-supported/unsupported DOMElement.attributes caused scheduling to fail or be incomplete (http://quirksmode.org/dom/core/#attributes).
* Updated backbone.js to 1.1.0.
* Updated underscore.js to 1.5.2.
* [FEAT] (protovis QuantitativeScale ticks) When 2 ticks are asked for, then 2 ticks are given. It is always possible to take the start and end of the domain. Caused an infinite loop in CCC's horizontal numeric axis ticks calc. algorithm.
* [FIX] (protovis Swallowed Error) A catch that did not throw or log.
* [FIX] (protovis Area One Point) Calling a function with the wrong name. Occurred only in areas with a single instance.
* [FIX] (CCC plots base axis order nulls visible) When multiple plots where shown, and had null interpolation, and some series were hidden, the plots could render the categories in an order different to that of the base axis. This was noticeable in the line/area plot.
* [FIX] (CCC legend extension points) A recent regression. The indexes of the legend extension points, for the several colorAxis/dataCell, (legendDot_, legend2Dot_, etc) were not being correctly assigned.
* [FEAT] (CCC legend extension points) Ability to specify legend$Dot_ or legend$Rule_ to affect any legend group (1, 2 , 3...). Some more work is needed to provide the same legend group extension points separation to the legendPanel_, legendMarkerPanel_ and legendLabel_.
* [FEAT] (CCC Bar-family BarOrthoSizeMin) New option for the bar family of charts, allowing to control how zero-bar-height values are shown.
* [CDF-214] CDF Table component with paginateServerSide:true not working properly
* [ANALYZER-2098] When dimension is used as Multi-chart level it damages sort order of child chart.
* [FIX] (CCC Legend Align) Two bugs in layout code that would cause misalignments.
* [FIX] (CCC Pie Panel Legend) When all the categories were set to invisible, by using the legend, the panel would internally throw and invalid data exception, which resulted in a chart with no legend to be able to make categories visible again. Changed the level at which the exception is caught, so that it shows on each plot's panel instead. Also, now only throwing the exception when there are any categories, but their values do not allow representation.
* [FIX] (CCC Bar BarWidth) Calculation of barWidth for single series included more margin than it should.
* [IMP] (CCC Legend Tooltip) only show legend tooltip when the text of the legend item was trimmed.
* [FEAT] (CCC Bar antialias) Auto-antialiasing bars when their width, or the space between is small enough that the pixel rounding results in perceptible different bar widths and/or spacing.
* Include Backbone.Events in the prototype of every BaseComponent and only have Dashboards mix it in to and object if it's not already available.
