TOLERANT Match Release 10.0

2020/04/16

If a previously uncompressed Match index now shall be saved compressed, an initial load needs to be executed with „compressPages“ activated to use it in the service context.
The possibility to install and start the GUI’s as standalone applications was removed.

When a changed configuration is saved, a backup copy of the old configuration is also saved and can be used to restore this version at a later point in time. As soon as a configurable number of backups is reached, the oldest backup will be deleted for a newer one. New menu point to save a version of the configuration including all changes, without overwriting the current configuration.
The possibility to install and start the GUI’s as standalone applications was removed.
The attributes maxMemoryInitial, maxMemoryService, threadCountService und threadCountInitial can now be configured via the match Admin GUI.

Batch Wizard now supports deactivating all „Unknown“ fields of a file at once.
The possibility to install and start the GUI’s as standalone applications was removed.

During a save-operation triggered by an admin-command, the service will show regular progress indication for each project saving the index.
New admin command „state project detailed“ was added to retrieve additional metrics for the given project.
A new runtime attribute „compressPages“ was added. It enables configuring TOLERANT Match to save the pages in a memory efficient way and so to reduce the required disk storage and the amount of data that needs to be transmitted over the network.
The project state will be changed automatically to ERROR if the limit on internal errors was exceeded.

More errorcodes have been included to the list of codes that trigger a retry request by the Java-API.

Added additional parameter for admin-command „list metric“ to filter out metrics with a regular expression. Example: –cmd „list metric Steps.*“
All errors in the synonym-, normalize- and transliteration-files will now be reported fully by the config checker.
The bundled PostgreSQL database driver was updated to version 42.2.5. The driver supports PostgreSQL 8.2 or newer.
The memory consumption while reading from a database table was optimized.
Attributes threadCount and maxMemory can now be configured individually for initial load and service. Also additional parameters for CLI-tool „matchInitialload“ have been added to overwrite config settings.
The option „referrals“ is now supported in the LDAP adapter.
A new runtime attribute „compressPages“ was added. It enables configuring TOLERANT Match to save the pages in a memory efficient way and so to reduce the required disk storage and the amount of data that needs to be transmitted over the network.
Several third party libraries have been updated to eliminate security findings.
The script „matchFileTest“ will now display all characters which will get replace with an underscore by the match-kernel after synonyme, transliteration and normalisation took place.

TPR-6366: Deleting all match methods and the match output is now possible.
TPR-6384: File Picker in the Admin-GUI is now case sensitive.
TPR-7103: Clustersettings-form will now use the correct clusterconfig.xml for the validation check and editing, if different installations are maintained over the GUI.
TPR-7850: The automatic generation of output fields now ensures that each generated field has a unique name.

TPR-7162: query-parameter „disabledFields“ will now be correctly filled by the matchclientGUI

TPR-7307: Normalizer and snyonym statistics will now be written to the log files after a batch run finished

TPR-6382: Missing environment variables „JETTY_PORT“ and „JETTY_HTTPS_PORT“ were added to winserviceregister.bat.
TPR-6557: Before saving a project the project state will be checked and the state must be RUNNING to execute the save operation.
TPR-6611: The Match Cluster synchronization method „DataSyncEventBidirectional“ now correctly handles the temporary storing of match-keys.
TPR-6614: In case of stopping a project and executing a new initial load before starting the project again the correct sync-method will be chosen if the service is running in a cluster environment.
TPR-6659: Executing the admin-command „save project “ will now correctly save the match-index of this project.
TPR-7830: H2-Database-Files located in the config/templates folder have been removed. The service will now create a missing database-file and the required table structure automatically. The connection check via the GUI will also create the database-file under the given file path for H2 and SQLite.

TPR-6325: It is now supported that the config file is encoded as UTF-8 with BOM.
TPR-6947: Synonym and normalizer test tools now show correct charsets in output for all languages.
TPR-7306: Fixed possible problem when searching for an empty value in MULTISTRING fields.
TPR-7571: Outdated operations caused by wild-card deletes in backlog files will be handled correctly.
TPR-7725: The handling of catastrophic backtracking and long running regular expressions in synonym matching has been improved.
TPR-7828: The WSDL-File to describe the SOAP-API is now included in the /doc directory.
TPR-7843: products.tpl no longer bundled in the zip-File for the service-example.
