ACE

Corrected column sort bug. Numeric entries were treated as strings to be sorted. This is now fixed. Blobs cannot be sorted.

"Since" field of newly created rows are replaced with the time upon commit. Previously, it remained as the time the entry was added in ACE.

Added the busy cursor when committing entries. 

ACE-00-02-00-beta is available for test although it was released for the benefit of the L1Calo group. It does, however, correct a bug in the handling of UChar fields in folders.

• I've disabled predefined connections i.e. using CORAL-aware connection strings. COOL developers have changed their minds about supporting it in COOL. Support for aliases and roles is available but require a dblookup.xml file which does not seem to come as default for TDAQ software. For this temporary beta version, I've taken it out until I decide how to approach this again.
• The "Open COOL Folder" dialog box opens when a folder is double-clicked. I've disabled support for channel selection for now as I've not got multiple selections working yet.
• uncheck tag selection to use the HEAD tag. Cannot create tags just yet but will be able to see all available tags and choose between them. Note that adding rows in a tagged folder will result in the row being added to the HEAD tag, as it should.
• uncheck IOV selection to select all IOVs.
• Hover over the mouse over the window-title of the opened folder table to see any constraints placed on the folder when it was opened i.e. tag, channel selection and IOV selection.
• UChar should work as expected now. By default it has a dec mask now.
• clobs and blobs need to be double clicked to be viewed. there is a little issue with the blob/clob veiwer/editor appearing unexpectedly at times after closing it. Please do not dump a file >500KB into the blob for now. The textedit widget does not seem to like it and will take a long time ,causing the GUI to freeze. When I get more time, I will have to implement a new textedit widget that can be run in a separate thread.
• New channels can now be created as Channel Ids of cloned rows are can now be changed.
