Third Party Updates

WorkItem:271266 - Update the version of Apache Commons IO library used in the Merative Social Program Management application

The Apache Commons IO library contains utility classes, stream implementations, file filters, file comparators, endian transformation classes, and much more. Its usage in Merative Social Program Management (SPM) is related to the client generators, the XML Server, Word Integration and also Axis 2 web services.

The version of the commons-io library used by SPM has now been updated from 1.4 and 2.4 to 2.8.0 which contains some bug fixes and a number of improvements.

As a result of this upgrade, the following changes have been made in the Java Development Environment deliverable.

• CuramSDEJ\lib\third_party_version.properties - the version of the commons-io JAR file has been updated.
• CuramSDEJ\xmlserver\third_party_version.properties - the version of the commons-io JAR file has been updated.

The changes to the commons-io JAR file include:

• CuramCDEJ\lib\ext\jar\signed\sha-2\commons-io-2.8.0.jar - version updated from 2.4 to 2.8.0.
• CuramCDEJ\lib\ext\jar\commons-io-2.8.0.jar - version updated from 2.4 to 2.8.0.
• CuramSDEJ\xmlserver\commons-io-2.8.0.jar - version updated from 2.4 to 2.8.0.
• CuramSDEJ\lib\commons-io-2.8.0.jar - version updated from 2.4 to 2.8.0.
• CuramSDEJ\lib\axis2\commons-io-2.8.0.jar - version updated from 1.4 to 2.8.0.

It should be noted that any references in custom build scripts and other artifacts to the versioned JAR file should be updated to point to the new version of the JAR file as specified above.

WorkItem:271522 - Dojo update to ensure compatibility with the Websphere Application Server

The Dojo Toolkit is an open-source modular JavaScript library (or more specifically JavaScript toolkit) designed to ease the rapid development of cross-platform,
JavaScript/Ajax-based applications and web sites. It is used as the JavaScript framework of choice in the CDEJ (Curam Development Environment for Java) delivered as part of SPM.

An incompatibility issue with the version of Dojo used in SPM (dojo-ibm-V1.10.5) and traditional WebSphere Application Server has been addressed. This has resulted in an update to the following file within the delivered toolkit:

• dojo/request/util.js

This change is not impactful as it does not modify any of the externally available Dojo APIs delivered.

PO09259, WorkItem:271507 - Performance Issue - Long running SQL when searching an employer

Issue Description:

Performance can be affected when searching for an employer or prospect employer where there are a large number stored in the database, impacting the return of search results.

User Interface Impact: No

Prerequisite(s):

1. The system contains a considerable number of prospect employers or registered employers (in the order of 1000's).

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Login as a caseworker.
2. Click on Employer under Search in the shortcuts panel.
3. Input some partial search criteria, such as part of the registered name and the city.
4. Click Search.
5. Issue: The query takes a long time to execute before the results are returned.

Resolution:

The search query has been optimized and split into two distinct queries, one for Employers and one for Prospect Employers. A new field has also been added to the Employer Search page to allow a user to decide if Prospect Employers should be returned in the search results or not.

Known Issues
