Voir la source de Main differences between V1.3 and V1.4.1

Some interesting evolutions exist between the V1.4 version and the V1.3 version. Only some incompatibilities exist on the code source but are very easy to correct.


== Possibility to hide items in GComponentList ==

OpenClose arrows appear now to be able to hide widgets in a [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/highLevel/GComponentList.html GComponentList] if multiple mode has been chosen.

== Global management of the validity status ==

Now, thanks to the <font color=#4169E1>GCondensedStatusInterface</font> it is possible to get the global status (<font color=#4169E1>OK</font>, <font color=#4169E1>WARNING</font>, <font color=#4169E1>ERROR</font>) of a set of data. This mechanism also allows to get the list of the data positionned as <font color=#4169E1>WARNING</font>/<font color=#4169E1>ERROR</font>. More details are given in the [[user_manual:validity_controls|validity controls section]].

== Possibility to manage missing data in XML files ==

Now it is possible to read XML data files with missing data. these ones will be replaced by default values. More details are given in the [[GReadWrite_interface|GReadWrite interface and data files management section]].

== Specific warning for integer entry ==

In the previous versions, when a user tried to enter something different as a digit in an integer field, no message appeared. For example, entering <font color=#FF8C00>123x45</font> would be the same as <font color=#FF8C00>12345</font>.
Problems may occured when a user would enter a real value in an integer field (as may be, he did not know it was an integer field) : for example <font color=#FF8C00>123.45</font> will give <font color=#FF8C00>12345</font> without any message.
Now, only in case of "<font color=#FF8C00>.</font>" or "<font color=#FF8C00>e</font>" input, a message will be sent to the user.

== Optimized display of real values ==

Thanks to some feedback when using previous versions, it has been decided to display only <font color=#FF8C00>14</font> digits (rather than 15). Moreover the size of the input field has been enlarged.

At last, a mechanism has been implemented to automatically switch on scientific format when necessary. For example, rather than to display <font color=#FF8C00>0.0000000000123456789</font>, we will get now <font color=#FF8C00>1.23456789E-11</font>.

== Interval validity values display ==

Now the values are displayed in the same unit as the one chosen (and no more in SI unit as in the previous version). The real format also corresponds to the one used (see just above about optimized display of real values).

== More possibilities when using the GFreeChartXY widget ==

See the corresponding Javadoc at [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/lowLevel/GFreeChartXY.html GFreeChartXY]

=> <font color=#990099>incompatibility in the code.</font>

== Colors for not enabled fields ==

The background and foreground colors of "not enabled" fields have been changed in order to be more readable.

== Creation of the GBufferedTextArea ==

Using [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/lowLevel/GTextArea.html GTextArea] or [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/highLevel/GConsole.html GConsole] may imply some problems when too many informations are stored in such widgets. A [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/highLevel/GBufferedTextArea.html GBufferedTextArea] has been created in order to better managed it with pagination functionnalities.

But in order to get something consistent between [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/lowLevel/GTextArea.html GTextArea], [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/highLevel/GConsole.html GConsole] and [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/highLevel/GBufferedTextArea.html GBufferedTextArea], constructors have been slightly changed implying some <font color=#990099>incompatibility in the code.</font>

== Anomaly corrections ==

Besides these evolutions, some anomalies have been corrected. The main ones are :

  * possibility to use setConstraint for a widget family (same class) of a [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/lowLevel/GPanel.html GPanel]
  * Anomalies for some display of the [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/plots/GPlotPanel.html GPlotPanel] widget
  * Layout management for the [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/highLevel/GOpenCloseButton.html GOpenCloseButton] widget

== Class constraints ==

In the previous version, an anomaly has been raised for managing constraints for all widgets of the same type inside  a higher level widget (as a [{{PathCurrentJavaDoc}}/fr/cnes/genius/lowLevel/GPanel.html GPanel] for example). Now, this anomaly has been corrected but the name of the method is now <font color=#4169E1>setClassConstraint</font> rather than <font color=#4169E1>setConstraint</font>.

=> <font color=#990099>incompatibility in the code.</font>

== Package refactoring ==

Some refactoring will have to be done due to modification of some classes versus packages location. A "Ctrl-Shift-o" with Eclipse will be sufficient !

=> <font color=#990099>incompatibility in the code.</font>
