New features in CollabNet TeamForge

CollabNet TeamForge 6.1.1 adds these new features.

Core infrastructure
TeamForge 6.1.1 supports these upgrades:
  • JBoss 6.0_26
  • Tomcat 7.0.22
  • Postgres 9.0
Section 508 compliance
  • There's better input support in forms using assistive technologies
  • Text equivalents are available for images
  • For information conveyed with color-only, there are alternatives without color
  • Row and column headers are available for assistive technologies
  • Links are available for applets and plugins
Installer improvements
The YUM based installer improves installing, upgrading and patching TeamForge.
Search
  • TeamForge 6.1.1 offers better global search and search specific to a project tool.
  • The Lucene library has been upgraded to the latest release 3.2.0.
Integrated applications
  • General Availability (GA) release of the Integrated Application Framework (IAF)
  • Integrated applications offer a detailed view displaying deployment and application properties and project parameters. You can export existing definitions, edit them, and make content from third party tools available in project pages.
Site level metrics
Site administrators can monitor source code commits across all projects at the site level.
Data entry validation mechanisms
In TeamForge 6.1.1, the SOAP_ARTIFACT_LIST_LIMIT token (in site-options.conf) can be used to limit the number of artifacts returned via SOAP calls. In TeamForge releases earlier than 6.1.1, SOAP calls returned everything that was asked for, and that is the default behavior in TeamForge 6.1.1 as well (with this token set to -1). However, sites with performance and stability issues (OutOfMemory errors) in returning a large number of artifacts can now limit the number using this token. Changing this value requires a recreate-runtime and thus a site restart. Increasing the number of retrieved artifacts beyond the optimal 20,000 - 25,000 range might cause a heap dump. See this wiki page for related information.
Reports
  • Quartz has been upgraded to version 1.8.3.
  • Wiki and Docman are converted to Enterprise JavaBean 3 (EJB 3) classes.
IAF
Debug information has been introduced for integrated applications.
