Extended Release Cycle Concept

andreas_balsiger — Tue, 31 Mar 2020 09:54:12 -0400

Dear customers, AXON Ivy supporters and developers

It is very important to us to continuously improve and professionalize the development of the Axon.ivy Digital Business Platform. Some time ago, we introduced a new release cycle concept, which provides two different versions of the Axon.ivy Digital Business Platform in parallel:

LTS (Long Term Support): A major version that is stable over a longer period of time (average 1.5 - 2 years), which does not present any new features and focuses on bug fixing
LE (Leading Edge): A further development of the LTS version, which already provides the latest features for early adopters.

This concept has proven itself and will therefore continue to be used. In addition, our customers have shown that support for the two latest LTS versions and support for the latest LE version is ideal for both ongoing and new projects.

During the versioning and numbering of the versions, however, there were always misunderstandings, which we have now resolved with the extended concept. Some customers were not aware that a change from an LTS version (for example 7.0.x) to an LE version (for example 7.1) means a major version change with migration effort/pain. Therefore the LE version was often used unnecessarily. This resulted in the fact that you either have to go along with every LE upgrade or run the risk of having an unsupported version in use.

Therefore the new versioning plans to release all LTS versions as even version numbers and all LE versions as odd version numbers. Thus it is clearly defined that a change from an LTS version to an LE version is a major upgrade with migration effort without backwards compatibility.

The next LE version will be numbered 9.1, while the next LTS major release will be numbered 10.0.

This information is available for everyone on our developer page: https://developer.axonivy.com/release-cycle

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

How to get osgi.bundle package of ivy 8?

pttung — Tue, 04 Feb 2020 06:42:16 -0500

In ivy 7, I use the repository as below to get osgi.bundle package.

<repository> <id>ivy.nightly.release</id> <layout>p2</layout> <url>https://download.axonivy.rocks/p2/leading/</url> </repository>

It work well with Ivy version 7. But with Ivy version 8.0.2, it cannot work.

So, could you show me the repository need to use for version 8.0.2?

I try to change: <url>https://download.axonivy.rocks/p2/leading/</url> => <url>https://download.axonivy.rocks/p2/lts-8.0/</url> but it also cannot work.

AXON Ivy Mobile App Design Issues

Hazem — Mon, 25 Nov 2019 05:48:02 -0500

Hello,

I tried to use the AXON Ivy mobile app for iPhone to run our project. The project was open fine but the main issue that most of the buttons and links which exist on the page did not clickable anymore. As a result, I cannot submit form, move among pages, open the new modal, etc.

I tried to open our project using chrome in my iPhone and it worked well, but when I turned to the AXON Ive mobile app nothing worked (nothing clickable).

Note: I am using Ive 7.4 version

Migration Ivy Server to another Machine

Stelt0 — Tue, 21 Nov 2017 08:29:28 -0500

Hello, Ivy Team,

We are planning to move one existing installation of Axon.Ivy Server to another machine. What are the pitfalls in such scenarios?

We will copy-paste the whole installation folder to the new server (the file system paths will be the same)
We will attach the AxonIvySystemDatabse to the new server (p.s. we will also migrating to different db server)
We need to change the license file
We need to update the configuration to point to the new db server
Probably we need to update the server name in the Admin UI

All should be straightforward, right ? Are we missing something ?

Best Regards, Yordan

Generate AxonIvySystemDatabase using powershell script

ToanLC — Fri, 24 Mar 2017 05:15:15 -0400

Hi guys,

I'm trying to create some powershell scripts, which will automate setup process of a server running ivy engine.

Though, I'm having one question whether we can automate the generation of AxonIvySystemDatabase or not as it's from the Engine Admin panel, with license, of course! Will this violate any copyright/licensing terms?

Thank you very much!

    return SecurityManagerFactory.getSecurityManager().executeAsSystem(
            new Callable<String>() {
                @Override
                public String call() throws Exception {
                    return Ivy.request().getProcessModel()
                            .getReleasedProcessModelVersion()
                            .getProjectDirectory();
                }

Can i redirect to another startlink by ivy API?

trungdv — Fri, 21 Oct 2016 04:08:27 -0400

Hi all I have a startlink on a test page, when user trigger that link, i want to redirect to another startlink in other project (because in that project we have to hide all startlink). I saw we can use

FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().redirect("startlink url");

but in case i don't open any HtmlDialog, FacesContext will not exist. Is there any other ivy API could help me? for the moment, i need to open new HTML dialog then when i click to button, it will redirect to other page by FacesContext.

Thanks

How to evaluate cms with parameter on xhtml

trungdv — Mon, 15 Aug 2016 09:50:51 -0400

Hi all

I'm using jsf in ivy and normally i use directly API from ivy to get cms in xhtml file, ex:

 <p:outputLabel value="#{ivy.cms.co('/ch/axonivy/Label/EntityStep/Contact/email')}"/>

now in my cms, it has placeholder like Input email ex {0} {0} will be replaced by param and i can do it easily on ivy script/java (using API from ivy) but i can't use that api on xhtml page

 <p:outputLabel value="#{ivy.cms.co('/ch/axonivy/Label/EntityStep/Contact/email', 'someone@google.com')}"/>

Does anyone know?

Does Ivy Task support to create reminder task?

trungdv — Thu, 04 Aug 2016 10:45:19 -0400

Hi all

I have a requirement like: When user start a process then upload some document, the Document Cheking task will be create for the Superior role and it can be see in tasklist (use API from ivy to load task).

If after x Day, that task is not started by super role (may be he is very busy or he's in long holiday), so system will automatically create another task for HR to remind Superior role that he should perform that task (HR will remind superior by fone for example) and both tasks (Document Checking and Reminder) still can be opened. it would mean we can't use Expire time or Delay time in this case because just one task will be available at a time

When Document Checking is finished, the reminder will be destroy, i intend to use boundary signal event to do.

So does ivy task support this case or is there any api from ivy that we can use?

the process look like this:

Thanks in advance

Is there any API to throw exception programmatically in ivy

trungdv — Wed, 03 Aug 2016 05:07:24 -0400

Hi all

Some months ago i heard about the new exception handling mechanism which has been introduces by ivy team. Somehow ivy now can care about exception in BPM, we just need to use some special elements to throw and catch error code. And now i'm trying to use it in our project. Well, now may question is: beside of those special elements, is there any ivy API to throw exception with defined error code in java? Thanks in advance
