You are viewing the documentation for Blueriq 13. Documentation for other versions is available in our documentation directory.



1. Development Tools

We have introduced a new set of development tools; a new Runtime dashboard accompanied by a development toolbar. They have been made available in our new major release 14.0, but have now also found their way into the final minor release of version 13. They have been made available to provide our customers a smooth transition path.

The new development tools have been made the default in R13.13 and uses all the familiar properties. To start using them, you don't have to do anything. It is however still possible to switch back to the old toolset (all documented here), if for some reason the new toolset is not sufficient at this time. We do ask you to inform us via the Customer Portal what would help transition to the new development tools.

When having a custom war and you want to load Studio datasources in the runtime, you should also add a dependency to blueriq-component-development-tools-v2 or add the spring profile 'development-tools-v1' from BQ 13.13.x.

For a complete introduction and description of the new development tools, have a look Release notes R14.0 or documentation .

2. Enhancements

Enhancement Details
AQ_SoapServiceClient

The SOAP protocol allows different sub element types in a SoapFault. One of these elements, the Details, can be mapped to an attribute in the AQ_SoapServiceClient parameters (like the code and message). This element might contain a single value or a XML structure, which will be mapped to a text attribute. 

Document Generation Added the type "CSV" to the default OutputFormat's. This makes it possible to create a custom implementation that generates csv-files and uses the default Blueriq studio service. 

3. Documentation

Documentation on the new features and improvements of this release is linked in the respective topics.

4. Changes Platform Support

No changes in platform support.

5. Upgrade Instructions

Customers who use MVC front-ends in combination with Blueriq 13.13 need to make a small update on the MVC front-end in order to make to make this unsupported framework work with newly introduced Development Tools. Have a look at the documentation on how to do this. The update on the MVC can be found in Blueriq 12.13.26 Release.

As a best practice

  • backup your repository
  • backup your database before running scripts
  • backup your spring.config.additional-location directory ([Blueriq installation directory]\Runtime)
  • backup any config files you have altered under [Blueriq installation directory]\Services

before you start the upgrade.

10. Bug fixes

Identifier

Component

Issue

Solution

BQ-12913

JAVA Runtime

CVE-2021-30468 was reported on the Apache CXF dependencies.

Apache CXF is upgraded to version 3.3.11 which is not vulnerable.

CSD-3782

Customer Data Service

In CDS version line 3.x (included with BQ12, BQ13 and BQ14), Hibernate could generate a query pattern for limiting that could cause poor performance on aggregate list queries for Oracle 12c and higher.

We updated Hibernate to a newer version, which supports an alternative query pattern for limiting that does not have this performance penalty.

BQ-12899

 

ReadWriteLock could grant incorrectly grant a lock in combination with thread interrupts

ReadWriteLock will now continue waiting if the thread is interrupted

BQ-12855

JAVA Runtime

When using instance lists, the pagination text is always displayed in English, even when another language is used.

The pagination texts for instance list are now shown in the correct language. Please note that we introduced a navigation container in the instance list which replaces the old single field pagination. This might break existing MVC frontends. We introduced a legacy toggle which enables the old behavior.

BQ-12816

JAVA Runtime

The Blueriq Runtime would not pick up the license configured in Blueriq Studio when using the Development Tools

The Blueriq Runtime will now pick up the license configured in Blueriq Studio again when using the Development Tools

CSD-3763

versionmanagement

Creating commits could spuriously fail under high load, especially during the SDF migration in which lots of revisions are created.

The occasional failure is now handled gracefully instead of failing the commit operation, allowing the revision to be created.

BQ-12706

JAVA Runtime

CVE-2021-22112 was reported on spring-security artifacts used by Blueriq

This CVE does not apply to the artifacts used by Blueriq, but are falsely reported as affected. However, we decided to upgrade the libraries anyway so we do not get any false reports.

BQ-12595

JAVA Runtime

When running in production mode, Material theme did not work with the default CSP headers configured in Blueriq.

We updated the default CSP headers configured in Blueriq to make the Material theme work out of the box in production mode.

BQ-12477

JAVA Runtime

When triggering a validation in the instance linker by navigating away from the field using the TAB key, no error message is shown.

An error message will now be shown in all appropriate situations.

BQ-12341

process engine

Acquiring a case lock could cause the entire case, including the case profile to be read from the database, which could result in a lot of unnecessary queries, giving a performance penalty.

We removed the need to read the case from the database after acquiring the lock and in this way we improved the performance of starting a task that has case locking enabled.

CSD-3637

installer

When installing Blueriq and IIS is not installed and error is thrown suggesting that IIS is already installed

The Blueriq installer messages have been clarified into separate messages that display if the software is not installed or if the software version is not compatible.
