Textuelle Beschreibung

Release 1.1 bringt einige neue Features, welche die Integration in Entwicklungsprojekte vereinfachen. Zudem sind etliche Bugfixes integriert. Konkret möchte ich auf einige der wichtigsten Punkte eingehen.

Features:

  • Filterung der invocation Sequences basierend auf Typ, exclusive time und duration ist nun möglich (siehe Filter invocation sequences)
  • Export und Import von invocation Sequences ist nun möglich. (siehe Invocation Export and Import )
  • Mehrere Configuration Files können nun verwendet werden. (siehe Separation of configuration files )
  • Unnötige Elemente einer invocation sequence werden ausgeblendet (bspw. eine Verschachtelung aus prepareStatement Calls). Dadurch steigt die Anzeigegeschwindigkeit in der UI

Wichtige Bugfixes:

  • Doppelte Agentenanzeige kommt nun nicht mehr vor
  • Sporadisch wechselte die UI automatisch von der Methodenansicht zurück zur SQL Ansicht (nur unter Windows)
  • UI Darstellungsproblem mit Windows Vista wurden gelöst
  • Die Invocation Sequence Ãœbertragung zwischen CMR und UI erfolgt nun über einen Port (bisher wurde ein neuer Port geöffnet)
  • Anpassung am internen javassist um (in den meisten Fällen) auch mit eigentlich inkorrekten Bytecode umgehen zu können.
  • Verbesserung bei der internen Ablage der Invocation Sequences. Sehr selten konnte es vorkommen, dass eine Invocation sequence eine andere überschrieben hatte.

Interne Verbesserungen / Updates / Schönheitskorrekturen:

  • Versionsupdate der verwendeten H2 Datenbank, Hibernate und weiterer intern verwendeten Framework
  • Signifikante Erweiterung der Testcases (Anpassung auf die gefundenen Bugs)
  • Lizensimport über die GUI verwendet nun einen normalen Dialog und keinen Fehlerdialog
  • Invalide CPU durations werden nicht mehr dargestellt
  • Der CMR, Agent und die UI entpacken sich in ein eigenes Verzeichnis
  • Verbesserte Standardeinstellungen für 64bit Umgebungen
  • inspectIT liefert nun ein JDK mit aus
  • Das automatische Update ist für jede Ansicht deaktiviert, da diese Funktionalität eine nicht unerhebliche Mehrbelastung für den CMR darstellt.
  • Die UI erweitert nun alle Elemente mit Doppelklick
  • Etliche Verbesserungen am Exception Sensor

Bug

  • [INSPECTIT-10] - License import dialog uses "error dialog" while indicating that the license was imported
  • [INSPECTIT-31] - CMR logging is not working with windows
  • [INSPECTIT-74] - Exception Tracer can cause SQL exception as the length of the parameters is not checked
  • [INSPECTIT-85] - NullPointerException when using Exception Sensor on a method having a try-finally block -> Bug is fixed in Javassist 3.11.0
  • [INSPECTIT-89] - OC4J error: cannot load class load.Y
  • [INSPECTIT-102] - Invocation Sequence Sensor: If no timer sensor is defined for the starting point method the aggregated method view doesn't show anything
  • [INSPECTIT-123] - Testcase "connected" in IdManagerTest fails sometimes
  • [INSPECTIT-140] - CPU Platformsensor provides min/max for the process CPU time although this time is an always increasing number
  • [INSPECTIT-144] - Nullpointer Exception in the UI during startup - possible default package issue!
  • [INSPECTIT-146] - Duplicate CMR instances can be added
  • [INSPECTIT-164] - Startup of the client without the CMR results in errors
  • [INSPECTIT-177] - sun.security.pkcs11.wrapper.PKCS11Exception in the CMR (license service threw exception)
  • [INSPECTIT-180] - Current implementation of Crop Method is wrong
  • [INSPECTIT-181] - Ivy cannot be downloaded anymore when a build is executed
  • [INSPECTIT-182] - Error when executing Agent build for 1.4
  • [INSPECTIT-183] - Instrumentation of Weblogic Stub classes makes later deployment impossible
  • [INSPECTIT-185] - Is the ExceptionTreeOverview really a tree?
  • [INSPECTIT-191] - Method view of invocation sequence shows no data
  • [INSPECTIT-192] - VerifyError in PreparedStatement Sensor
  • [INSPECTIT-198] - Agent are shown multiple times (although it is the same agent)
  • [INSPECTIT-200] - CPU time in Timer Data not always recored
  • [INSPECTIT-204] - Update nebula cdatetime
  • [INSPECTIT-205] - Hide cpu duration if <0
  • [INSPECTIT-211] - Removing the LIVEMODE from getPreferenceIds() within a class doesn't stop the updating process in the background
  • [INSPECTIT-213] - Duration in Invocation Overview and Details do not match
  • [INSPECTIT-216] - Projections.count() in the new version of Hibernate returns now Long instead of Integer
  • [INSPECTIT-218] - CMR causes unique index or primary key violation
  • [INSPECTIT-219] - The DB query for retrieving stack traces for a specific error message seems not working anymore with the new hibernate version
  • [INSPECTIT-227] - Invocation sequence retrieval uses RMI and needs additional (random) port
  • [INSPECTIT-228] - UI hangs up on MS Vista (and possibly Win7)
  • [INSPECTIT-232] - Storage area has to be always the last element
  • [INSPECTIT-233] - Calculation of exclusive time is wrong
