1. Enhancements

Enhancement Details

Derived XML or JSON media types for JSON messages accepted

For parsing a REST message, Blueriq did already support application/json and application/xml out of the box; derived media types (application/*+json and application/*+xml), such as application/hal+json are now accepted as well. With accept, it is meant that Blueriq will be able to parse the JSON message to get the information from the response message into the profile. Extending Blueriq in such a way that Blueriq fully understands the semantics of HAL+json and other variants is not planned.

Context menu improvements in Encore
  • Items in different context menus across Encore now have the same ordering.
  • From this release, all context menus can be opened using a right mouse click.
  • Icons are used for items to improve recognizability.
Cursor automatically set in Encore

In Blueriq 17.4, the behavior of automatically setting the cursor to fields upon opening an editor has been added so that the user can immediately start typing. This behavior has been expanded to more places thoughout Encore, specifically to editors with expression editors and display texts as first input, such as the button editor and the decision table.

Entity information in attribute dropdown in Encore

When adding a new attribute to a page or container, you can directly select an attribute and Encore will automatically select the corresponding entity. If there are multiple entities with the same attribute, it was previously not possible to see which entity the attribute belongs to. This information has now been added. This change also affects the sort ordering, as attributes are now grouped by their entity.

Login improvements using the Gateway Service

As of version 1.3.0 of the Gateway Service we now detect that when there is only one identity provided configured, we can skip the identity provider selection resulting in a smoother login procedure.  

2. Upgrade Instructions

See Release 17.8 Upgrade Instructions for the upgrade instructions for this 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.

Solution

BQ-24335

Gateway

CVE-2024-38821 was detected on spring-security-web

Upgraded the spring security libraries to the latest version

CSD-5755

Encore

Containers without container type could silently have parameters without them being used. Similarly for containers where its container type has disabled containment, yet containment could still be present in a container.

These situations will now be surfaced through validation errors in Encore. Note that this does not prevent creating project exports, but it is recommended to remove the obsolete parameters and/or containments.

BQ-24105


The Runtime would throw a generic RuntimeException when failing to start a task due to a caselock. This would result in a failed event in the maintenance app instead of a delayed event.

The Runtime now throws a specific LockAlreadyExistsException which enables the maintenance app to actually save the resulting message as a delayed event

CSD-5654


Automated tasks did not have an icon indicating their automated status.

Automated task icon has been added.

CSD-5603


The default mail connection configured via properties conflicted with mail connections when provided by another ConnectionManager. For example when you created your own AquimaConnectionManager or AquimaConnection.

When creating a default mail connection we mark it as default, so it will not conflict anymore with unique mail connections provided from other ConnectionManagers
