Announcing: FDO Toolbox 1.0 beta 4

Here's a new release for the new year.

Some of the highlights include:
  • Experimental support for variables in Sequential Processes. I'll elaborate on this in a future post.
  • Experimental support for flow control in Sequential Processes. I'll elaborate on this in a future post.
  • Express connect support for King Oracle provider
  • Support for XML configured connections in Bulk Copy tasks (no UI support yet)
  • Geometry properties in Object Explorer now show spatial context and geometry types
  • Connections in Object Explorer now also show if an XML configuration has been applied
And some fixes too:
  • Fix not being able to edit spatial contexts in Data Store Editor
  • More intelligent handling of spatial contexts when creating geometry properties on-the-fly with Bulk Copy
  • Saved connections also persist any configuration information
  • Restore Sequential Process tasks on startup
  • Fix faulty logic when copying spatial contexts to a connection that supports multiple spatial contexts
  • Fix exception when copying to SQL Server and new Class Definitions were created.
