V5.5-000 brings two major new enhancements to GT.M.
A new type of replication, Supplementary Instance (SI)
replication, allows replication to a supplementary instance which can
execute its own business logic and commit database updates, to provide
reporting, decision support, data warehousing, auditing, and more -
all in real time. A technical bulletin is at
http://tinco.pair.com/bhaskar/gtm/doc/articles/GTM_Supplementary_Inst...
MUPIP REORG now has a TRUNCATE option, to return unused space at
the end of a database file to the host file system, after operations
such as data archival - even while the database continues in active
use.
There are other noteworthy enhancements as well, for example:
A framework to allow GT.M to be extended with plugins, whether
from FIS or others. In parallel with this release, FIS is providing a
sample plugin which wraps zlib ( http://zlib.net) to compress strings
in M code.
Routine invocations using DO no longer require empty parentheses
for calls with no actuallist. This change also improves the
performance of routine invocation.
The encryption reference plug-in supports a method to employ if
key management requires the ability to pass an obfuscated password
between unrelated processes, or even from one system to another.
As usual, the release includes many smaller improvements and
corrections. A more detailed announcement is at
http://fisglobal.com/products-technologyplatforms-gtm-infobulletins-c...
and the Release Notes are at http://tinco.pair.com/bhaskar/gtm/doc/articles/GTM_V5.5-000_Release_N...
There is a fix to a bug exposed by VistA. While the application code
from the VistA Surgery package that exposed the bug was unnecessarily
convoluted and easily replaced with more readable code, it was legal
code and reliably produced a segmentation violation in V5.4-002B.
From the release notes, the relevant entry is:
GT.M now handles nesting of XECUTE strings that contain
subscripted FOR control variables. In V5.4-002x such constructs could
result in a memory segmentation violation (UNIX SIG-11 or OpenVMS
ACCVIO). (GTM-7007)
Please do try V5.5-000 and let us know what you think.
