Main Changes and Improvements

PFAUT-357 UI for the Fetch/Tool window changed to support multiple objects
Manhattan API functions (requires Update Project Libraries to take effect)
Faster loading of the preview and faster fetching of some objects (mainly Preferences)
The menu options "Create new Pricefx logic" and "Create Pricefx configuration" have moved under the "New" menu item
The width of the Environment and Partition combo-boxes has been increased

New Features

PFAUT-357 Deploying release with few clicks
PFAUT-320 Comparing logics (local vs. remote in the Fetch tool window)
Generation of pom.xml from the context menu to enable TDD4C and SonarQube (see Static code analysis with SonarQube)
It is possible to deploy the logic from the element editor using a shortcut key. You need to assign a shortcut key in Preferences/Settings → Keymap → search "Deploy logic".

Bug Fixes

Logic test execute for was crashing for workflow logics
Workflow logics created in Studio were not working
The creation of the TDD4C element unit test file stopped working since IDEA changed plugin structure
It was not possible to select the PX or CX context of a preset in the parameter tab if there was only 1 PX/CX in the combo-box

Pricefx Studio 5.1 (build 181.2573)

This release contains fixes required for IDEA 2019.2 and higher.

This and newer versions of Studio will require IDEA versions 2019.1.3 and newer.

New Feature

Bug Fixes

PFAUT-354 User's credentials from business roles were not taken into consideration in pfxpackage
Opening result dialog was crashing
Logic.json editor for workflow logics was crashing due to older logics created before the 'workflowType' attribute was introduced on the backend. The same thing caused a problem in the Groovy console.
It was not possible to select PX or CX name in test parameters if there was exactly 1 PX or CX item in the combo-box.

Pricefx Studio 5.0 (build 173.2487)

Major Changes

PFAUT-313 Preset parameters have been massively refactored in order to support new contexts. A new virtual TypeCode parameter has been introduced to support this. Therefore the preset files have now a new format.

So if you need to keep the old format of your preset files, save them under a new filename. The old format can still be read.

After this upgrade, you should also update project libraries.

New Features

PFAUT-313 Massive refactoring of parameters to support new contexts. Test of PA logics (formulaNature "paDataLoad") is now supported. Generate or test formula now recovers parameters if a run crashes. LookupLabels fixed: they now display values as expected.
