New in Release 2.1.x
Updated in March, 2003. The "CrossWorlds" name
is no longer used to describe an entire system or to modify the
names of components or tools, which are otherwise mostly the same
as before. For example "CrossWorlds System Manager" is
now "System Manager," and "CrossWorlds
InterChange Server" is now "WebSphere InterChange
Server."
The following features are new in this release:
- The PeopleSoft Adapter, which includes the PeopleSoft ODA, only
fully supports versions 8.18 through 8.40 of PeopleTools.
- Because PeopleTools now supports Application Designer projects
in XML, all previous versions of the CrossWorlds event notification
objects must be updated or imported in the new format. See PeopleSoft
support for instructions.
- The Business Object ASI has been extended to include the new
PeopleSoft property setEditHistoryItems. When this value is set
to true, the adapter can run in Correction mode, which allows changes
to history records in PeopleSoft. Before this value was incorporated
into the getHistoryItems property, but with releases of PeopleTools
8.4 and later, this has been extracted into two separate properties, getHistoryItems,
which retrieves history items, and setEditHistoryItems, which allows
editing. Both of these properties are supported in this version
of the adapter for PeopleSoft. See the PeopleSoft documentation
on Component Interfaces for details on the functionality of these
properties.
- Internal PeopleSoft messages are now enabled in the adapter
log files. If there are PeopleCode processing errors or warnings
in the context of the current component interface, the connector
retrieves the messages from the PSMessage Collection object and
displays them. See PeopleSoft Component Interface documentation
for a full explanation of the content of these messages.
