*Release Note*

*J-ISIS and Web-JISIS 21 June 2014 releases*

*J-ISIS*

1)  J-ISIS is updated with the latest releases of the 3rd party open source
libraries (Lucene 4.7.0, Berkeley je-5.0.103, Groovy 2.0.0, etc)

2) The server and client logging process have been improved with the
capability to rollover log files. For example, logging is performed to a
file named J-ISIS-log.txt and, once a certain size is met, changes its
logging target to another file. The maximum number of files is set to 3
deleting the older file in a circular way.

3) Implementation of Authentication and authorization in J-ISIS using the
open source Apache Shiro library. Authentication deals with verifying a
user's identity (user name and password) while authorization grants access
to specific databases and to which operations they are allowed to do on
this database.

4) Changing the search result output so that the retrieved records are not
anymore displayed in the MFN order but by relevancy (i.e. most relevant
records displayed first) but with a toggle button to switch back en forth
between "display in MFN order" and "Most relevant first".

5) More flexible import of ISO2709 data. All fields whatever their tags are
assumed to be Data Fields (i.e. they can have occurrences and subfields)

6) Corrected a problem with REF L and LR functions when used with numeric
variables as in the following example:

/** Here both the linking (with ref) and the look-up (with L) are done to
the db AMJ_Member */

'Member ID: ' v810 X5'Name: ', ref->AMJ_Member(L->AMJ_Member(v810), v520)

/#

if p(v820^a) then,

    e1:=1, e2:=nocc(v820), while e1<=e2

    (

    if p(v820[e1]^a) then

        'Acc#: 'v820[e1]^a, X5,

         /** Here both the linking (with ref) and the look-up (with LR) are
done to the database AMJ_BOOKS.*/

        'Title:  'ref->AMJ_BOOKS(lr->AMJ_BOOKS((v820[e1]^a)),v90), X5

        'Issue Date: 'v820[e1]^d/

    fi,

    e1:=e1+1

    )

Fi

7) Many small improvements and bug fixing

 *WEB-JISIS*

1) Updating of jQuery, jQueryUI as well as the jQuery plugins

1) Use of Twitter bootstrap for web page design

2) Refactoring of the web pages to use  AJAX, jQuery and JavaScript code as
much as possible for generating the HTML

3) New powerful jQuery Select control that solves the diacritics problem

4) New Google style search form

5) Search term highlighting when displaying the search results, new
presentation of the results with paging. Search results are displayed from
the most relevant to the least relevant.

*J-ISIS Reference Manual*

1) New chapter on “Authentication And Authorization in J-ISIS”

2) New examples on how to use REF, L and LR functions

3) Some updates, and details added

*Web-JISIS Documentation*

1) Updated with new details and screen shots reflecting the Web-JISIS 21
June 2014 release

As usual, I would be very grateful if you could take the time to try
J-ISIS. All your comments, suggestions, improvement requests and bug
descriptions are welcome.

Best wishes,

Jean-Claude

PS) More than 510 downloads in less than 4 months (not including the Mac
version) has been done. If we consider 4 months of 30 days then the number
of downloads per day was around 4. Not so bad ! I hope that the new 21 June
2014 J-ISIS will have the same success. Web-JISIS has been drastically
improved, and I encourage you to try it and to read the new Web-JISIS
document that will give you an idea of its new working.
