Release Notes 2023.10.1

Smartfacts

  • Loading the report views in for Codebeamer trackers has been resolved

  • Model indexing for GIT repositories has been improved

    • Configuring a tracked branch doesn’t require the entire checkout of the repository anymore - this drastically reduces the amount of time needed to display the available branches

    • Automatic Synchronization for indexed models has been fixed

    • Only tracked branches are verified for changes when a sync is triggered (automatically or manually)

    • Assigning user permission to all branches in the repository once the GIT model is added to the project

    • Fixed an issue where branch names containing “__” would be have their named trimmed

    • Fixed an issue with the UI of configured indexed models and their branches

  • Search in the requirements grid is now server sided and also finds elements that have not been already loaded. The plugin uses the Codebeamer query language for that.

  • Link Types in Smartfacts “Model Warehouse Profile” are now sorted by source domain and target domain.

  • Images and rich text descriptions are rendered correctly in the requirements grid

  • Drop down usability in the requirement grid has been improved - clicking on the input also opens it

  • Fixed an issue where the user could add contributions to expired reviews

  • Fixed an issue where the review contributions wouldn’t get persisted

  • Fixed an issue where the user could only reply to his own contributions

  • Fixed an issue where adding a new model into a project would place the new node into root level instead of selected folder

  • Fixed an issue with the icons displayed in the “These links will be added” window for newly linked artifacts

  • It is now possible to create a link to a Smartfacts artifact in the Codebeamer tracker item description (requires OSLC Connector for Codebeamer 2023.11.1 or newer)

  • Improve the UX of “Links between models” analysis report

    • The result is displayed in a table

    • Link Type is now displayed

    • The Link Type column is filterable

  • Creating a folder in the project tree from the publishing wizard in modeling tool plugins is now possible

  • DNG references cannot be added to the project tree anymore

  • Fixed an issue that would make the “Next” button in the publishing wizard remain deactivated incorrectly in SPA

  • Fixed an issue with the “Add a new source code link definition” UI

  • Fixed an issue where the wrong Codebeamer tracker item preview was displayed from the modeling tools plugin

  • Fixed an issue where the dropdowns and tooltips in the modeling tool plugin would not close after clicking outside of them

  • “Open in Local Viewer” is again an option in the context menu of elements in the Eclipse plugin

  • Fixed an issue where the available link types to create code links where not displayed in the Eclipse plugin

  • Add the possibility to select all/deselect all selected tracker items in the requirement grid in the modeling tools plugin

  • Fixed an issue where the link graph could not be loaded in the plugin

  • Fixed an issue where an external server would require the description to be mandatory incorrectly

MagicDraw

  • Linking between MagicDraw model tree and Codebeamer requirements grid has been harmonized with all linking processes in MagicDraw, Codebeamer and Eclipse / VS Code

    • Drag > drop > local menu opens > selection of a link type > preview > add link

    • Select element in MagicDraw diagram > open local menu > preview > add link

    • Link type restriction level 2 between MagicDraw and Codebeamer has been introduced

  • Link types in the local menu of the requirements grid always show the link type used latest on top of the list. The same mechanism has been applied to the feature linking one model element to multiple requirements at the same time.

  • Multiple links can be removed from the requirements grid at once by checking the requirements

  • Search in the requirements grid is now server sided and also finds elements that have not been already loaded. The plugin uses the Codebeamer query language for that

  • The appearance of links in the plugins has been harmonized across MagicDraw, Codebeamer, Eclipse / VS Code

 

Known Issues

  • “Add a new Codebeamer item” doesn’t work with Codebeamer instances configured with a third party OIDC provider (using the basic authentication works)

  • Dragging two or more elements from the MagicDraw model tree into the requirements grid will establish only 1 link as shown in the preview

  • The MagicDraw model tree in Codebeamer has a vertical UI limitation

  • Linking from the MagicDraw model tree is not possible

  • Linking multiple elements of a diagram to one or multiple requirements is not possible

  • Codebeamer links added to the source code cannot be seen in Codebeamer

  • Codebeamer links added to the source code cannot be removed via the remove menu item

  • Tables are not shown correctly in the delegated UI of a Codebeamer item

  • Adding multiple links at the same time is not possible in Eclipse

  • Adding a link from Smartfacts (SPA or a modeling tool plugin) to Codebeamer sets the link as suspect
