1. New
1.1. Manual data mapping selection in task mapping in Blueriq Encore
A task mapping is used to define what should be done when a user starts and ends a task. More specifically, a task in the process module is mapped to a flow in the (task) implementation module and flow events could be mapped to process events as well. When starting and ending this flow, the runtime also executes a data mapping. Previously, this mapping was selected automatically. This can become problematic when there are multiple matching data mappings modeled. We therefore added the possibility to select a matching data mapping manually. This can only be done in Blueriq Encore for each task mapping entry.
If there are multiple matching data mappings available, a validation warning will appear in the project validation report to warn for ambiguity:
1.2. Process editors in Blueriq Encore
In the past minor releases we've already added several editors that are needed to model processes. We've now completed the list by adding the remaining custom containers (AQ_Dashboard_ThrowPortalMessage, AQ_ThrowMessageEvent, DCM_ThrowMessageEvent, DCM_ThrowAsyncMessageEvent, AQ_GetCaseInfo, AQ_GetTaskInfo) and custom service calls (AQ_Timeline, AQ_Dashboard_FlowWidget, AQ_Worklist, DCM_Worklist, DCM_Tasklist, AQ_Caselist, DCM_Caselist).

JAVA Runtime |
Those using Woodstox to parse XML data may be vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks (DOS) if DTD support is enabled. |
Updated internal fasterxml woodstox version to 6.4.0 |
BQ-18132 |
|
The Case Engine would not start when the timeline-event-publisher-amqp and trace-event-publisher-amqp profiles where disabled because the outbox wich is shipped with the case engine needs the publishers. |
The timeline and trace outbox is now only available in the case engine when the profiles timeline-event-publisher-amqp and trace-event-publisher-amqp are enabled. |
BQ-18040 |
|
Reopening a task is the same as aborting a task. When a task is aborted, first the lock is checked if it corresponds with the task AND the user that requested the lock => the user who started the task. The reopen task is called by the maintenance user, which is different from the lock requester, so you get an exception |
Specifically for reopening a task, the lock requester is neglected in checking the task lock. Note that a task lock still needs to exist. |
BQ-18032 |
|
For publishing messages from the outbox, we use a listener and a poller. This can lead to a situation in which a message is removed from the outbox by the poller, while it is already removed by the listener. This is an expected situation, but still a large stacktrace is printed in the log. This should be prevented. |
Instead of removing a message, it is now first looked up and then when it exists, it is removed. This was actually already done by the repository, but the difference is that now when a message no longer exists we do nothing, as opposed to throwing an exception. |
