Versie 4.1 van Data Crow is verschenen. Dit catalogusprogramma kan orde scheppen in de chaos van zo'n beetje elke verzameling, of het nu om boeken, cd's, dvd's, foto's of mediabestanden gaat. Waar mogelijk wordt allerlei relevante en aanvullende informatie van internet gehaald, zoals bij IMDb, Amazon of Bol.com. Het programma is opensource en in Java geschreven, en het is dan ook eenvoudig om aanpassingen in het uiterlijk of de functionaliteit te doen. In versie 4.1 zien we onder meer de introductie van de vernieuwde web server.
NewFixed
- This version contains the new web server as part of the existing server architecture. This replaces the old web module as was delivered with version 3 but never made it into version 4. The web server delivers the following functionality:
This web server delivers the same basic functionality (with a tad more style) as the old web module and will be expanded upon with each and every normal (4.x) delivery (see the roadmap).
- Searching for items (Search..)
- Creating new item (File > Create New)
- Edit item (Right-Click > Edit)
- Navigation between items (for example, open a software title, then click on it's category, then see which other items have been assigned to this category, etc.).
- Picking fields for the overview and the item form (web). (Settings > ..)
- Full security model has been implemented
Note: this web server is a module of the existing (since 4.0) server edition. It allows the server to serve both full (thick) clients as well as web clients at the same time. The web server uses an embedded version of Tomcat, version 8.0.23.Changed
- Change password on a network client caused errors / did not work.
- NullPointerException during start up for users with very limited rights logging onto the server.
- MP4 support for Movie File import. Many thanks Lars Kövari!
- The Data Crow Server manual has been updated to reflect the 4.1 changes.
