Build #84, 05/15/2009
Build 84 is now available for download from the Account Manager. This build includes an updated help file and some minor changes. Continue reading to see the individual items.
NOTES
Updated help files - This includes a new merged single help that includes both the API and User manual in a single file. The separate API file is still included, but our goal is to get rid of it in a future release. This is still only CHM file. HTML Help 2 is a pain. We can produce the same help file in HTML Help 2 for inclusion with Visual Studio help, but then the install takes about 3x longer due to help merge, and every time you update the entire help system has to rebuild. Still looking for a better solution.
ISSUES AND FIXES
Repair Database screen was showing *..vdb3 in dialog.
Data Migration from SQL Server 2008 ignores FK's - Fixed. SQL Server 2008 has a different function signature for getting FK's from the database. We have updated the DMW with the new func if the SQLClient reports it is version 10.
Collection was modified exception - This error appears to have been related to GC ordering. We have changed a destructor on a weakreference to not even touch the collection now during finalization. Before all it did was set it to null, but apparently that causes the weakreference to reload and become pinned.
Installing on machine with 2 copies of Visual Studio (2003 and 2005) would generate an error. We don't install anything for VS 2003.
OTHER NON TICKETED ITEMS
Some other minor internal changes for cleanup and disposal of objects.
