  • ilog.cpl.datasource.IlpAbstractHierarchyAdapter.getGraphicView()

TGO Thin Client

• The JViews TGO Web Components have been removed from the installation.
  To be consistent with the latest technologies available for Web interface development, the JViews TGO Web Components and all related classes have been deprecated in this release. The thin-client technology to be used instead is the JViews TGO Faces Components, which provides the equivalent Network and Equipment components. The first version of these components based on the JavaServer Faces technology has been available since JViews TGO 7.5. As the Tree and Table components equivalents are not yet provided in this release, third-party tree and table integration is the current recommendation. Please see our online demos at http://www.roguewave.com/products-services/visualization/jviews/demos/ for an illustration of such integration. The source code for this online demonstration is available upon request, as a contributed example. The deprecated Web Components are no longer present by default in the JViews TGO distribution, but they can be downloaded from the JViews support Web site.
• The dataSource field of the ilog.tgo.faces.datasource.component.IltFacesDataSource has been changed from protected to private as it was intended to be private.
• The _styleSheets and _project fields of the ilog.tgo.faces.graph.dhtml.servlet.IltFacesGraphServletSupport have been removed as they were not being used internally.

General Changes

TGO Main Library

• All resource bundles of JViews are now loaded through the IlvResourceUtil class.
  The class IlvResourceUtil allows to configure applets so that they no longer attempt to load resources unsuccessfully over the network for locale bundles that do not exist. This speeds up the startup time of applets that run in browsers with a different locale than the locales provided by the applet.
• BeanInfos have been provided for all CSS renderers.
  BeanInfos have been provided for all the JViews TGO CSS renderers. This speeds up the styling of TGO applets because the standard Introspector no longer attempts to search unsuccesfully for the BeanInfo over the network before creating it dynamically through reflection.
• The performance of CSS styling has been improved.
  • The matching of the selectors has become more efficient when the style sheet has selectors with many different CSS types or with many different IDs.
  • The execution of the declarations has become more efficient when the same declarations apply to many different objects.
  • Expressions in CSS declarations now take less time to evaluate.
  • Constants as CSS declaration values now take less time to evaluate.
• The predefined TGO adapters now support dynamic CSS customization through Mutable Style Sheets.
  A mutable style sheet is used to dynamically modify the CSS configuration of the adapter through code. It is an in-memory style sheet that is accessible through the IlpMutableStyleSheet API. Please note that the mutable style sheet is set to the adapter like a regular style sheet and will be cascaded according to the order in which it has been declared.
  Please refer to the Graphic Component section of the User's Documentation (where it describes how to customize a Graphic Component using CSS) for more details and examples.
• Update to the Bellcore state dictionary.
  A new secondary state has been added to the Bellcore State dictionary: Providing Service. It has the same meaning as the current Working Bellcore secondary state, but its naming and graphic representation are more appropriate. The Working secondary state is still available.
  The Providing Service state should be used in conjunction with Cold Standby, Warm Standby and Hot Standby, indicating that a backed up entity is currently working and providing service. Please refer to the Business Objects and Data Sources > Reference Tables for State Visuals > The Bellcore State Dictionary Visuals section of the User's Documentation for a graphic representation of the new secondary state.
• Alarm Representation in Expanded Subnetworks.
  The Network Component has a default implementation of alarm representations in expanded subnetworks. It provides a better support of alarm propagation and alarm visualization for parent-child relationships within the Network view (IlpNetworkView).
  Alarms are represented as an inner frame within the expanded subnetwork frame, carrying the following information:
  • Alarm Count Summary: Located in the top-right portion of the subnetwork, it displays the number and highest severity of new or outstanding alarms.
  • Most Severe New Alarm: The color of the subnetwork background is associated with the most severe new alarm.
  • Most Severe Outstanding Alarm: The color of the subnetwork outline is associated with the most severe outstanding alarm.
  • Not Reporting Alarm: Not Reporting alarms are represented through the corresponding abbreviation (NR by default). The subnetwork outline is grayed and the background is not mapped (applies the user-defined configuration).
  • Loss of Connectivity Alarm: Loss of Connectivity alarms are represented through the corresponding abbreviation (? by default). The subnetwork outline is mapped to the most severe outstanding alarm while the background is mapped to the loss of connectivity color (light blue by default).
  
  This is valid for both Raw and Impact alarms like other TGO objects. Please refer to the User's Documentation for more information on Alarm representation and Alarm representation in expanded subnetworks.

TGO Thin Client

• Improved selection API to allow for selection based on the identifier of a business object.
• Improved loading time of DHTML libraries.
• Improved support of session management.
• Added support for embedding the JViews TGO Faces components inside ADF and Trinidad forms.
