Version 5.5.1.8

5.5.1.8 is a free minor release. This version introduces a couple of new features to the .NET assembly and multiple enhancements in the main client script of the Rule Editor.

What's New in 5.5.0.3?

Version 5.5.0.3 does not introduce new bug fixes but includes the following new features and enhancements:

CodeEffects.Rule.Editor .NET Library

  • A new GetTypeDelegate that allows developers to implement a custom type resolver. See the new TypeGetter property of the CodeEffects.Rule.Editor.Control class and the delegate’s documentation for details on how and when to use this feature.

  • The Key property of the CodeEffects.Rule.Common.Models.DataSourceItem class has been reintroduced after being omitted in version 5.5.x of the Code Effects platform. See the Dynamic Menu Data Sources topic and the class documentation for details on dynamic menus and this option for defining them.

This version is recommended for updating from any older version of Code Effects 5.x.

Code Effects Editor Script and Styles

The new version of the npm package that corresponds to the .NET version 5.5.1.8 is 6.2.11. The main script includes the following new features and enhancements:

  • The max length of string inputs is now split into two separate values:

    • If not set by the FieldAttribute, ParameterAttribute, or ReturnAttribute, the default value of the HTML maxLength attribute for string inputs is now 512 (up from 256 in previous versions).
    • The maximum length of any string input that developers can set is 20,000 characters, meaning that a rule author cannot type a string longer than 20,000 characters into a value rule element of type string. In previous versions the limit was 256 chars.

  • This version of the script replaces the deprecated event.keyCode with event.key.

  • This version of the script replaces the deprecated String.substr(..) with the String.slice(..) method.

  • This version no longer declares the "use strict" directive at the top of the editor’s script. Use your own declaration(s) if needed.

The CSS files in this version of the npm package include only format updates and were brought to version 6.0.11.

This new version of the npm package is recommended for updating from any older version.
