De nieuwe versies van Data Crow volgen elkaar in rap tempo op, want zondag is versie 3.8.1 verschenen, de derde release in acht dagen. Dit catalogusprogramma kan orde in de chaos scheppen van zo'n beetje elke verzameling, of het nu om boeken, cd's, dvd's, foto's of muziekbestanden gaat. Waar mogelijk wordt allerlei relevante en aanvullende informatie van internet opgehaald, zoals IMDb, Amazon of Bol.com. Het programma is open source en in Java geschreven, en het is dan ook eenvoudig om aanpassingen in het uiterlijk of de functionaliteit te maken. Hieronder zijn de wijzigingen te vinden die in deze release doorgevoerd zijn:
Fixed:Changed:
- Categories and such could still be deleted even when used by other items.
- French translation was added incorrectly to the installer package (sorry Skorpionnan)!
- Errors when trying to delete an item (Date cannot be cast to collection of DcObject).
- Quick View does not display the item when the contact person module has been disabled.
- Error in queries when only references have been changed for an item.
- Only 10 custom property modules could be created. In the new setup you can have an unlimited amount of custom property modules.
- Cache is now always cleared when upgrading from an older version.
- Possible error during module import; importer tries to update a view which is created\ only after restarting Data Crow.
- Item importer (XML) failed when a field name (XML tag) started with a numeric value. These fields are now appended by 'fld-' to create a valid XML tag.
- Added the file backed and the container managed properties to the module wizard. These option were already available but only by editing the module XML manually. The file backed property adds the file size, file hash, hash type and file name field to the module. The container managed property adds a container field to the module and allows the items belonging to this module to be displayed within the container module.
