• From this version and on, in conflicts during Save or Add in DM, the system decides the next available version taking into account the existing DM objects.

Script API

The function dm.showProperties() has been extended to support simple library files. The function opens the Properties window in read-only mode.

The new function process.isGuiMode() returns whether a script is executed in GUI or no-GUI mode.

Script Actions

It is now possible to cancel script actions, hanging due to error in the script code that caused abnormal termination.

Script Actions registered to the top-level DM Item Type of the "Structure" (i.e. to Simulation Model), are also available in the context menu of virtual folders in the Data Manager. This makes it possible to execute the script action on all the DM Items grouped under the virtual folder at once.

REST API

The 'dm/dmobject/attributes' REST endpoint has been extended to enable setup of attributes for simple DM files, in addition to data types defined in the data model.

The 'dm/dmobjects' REST endpoint has been extended to enable the query for folders. It is now possible to search based on the folder name.

The 'dm/dmobjects/{id}' REST endpoint has been extended to enable the retrieval of metadata of a part instance.

Added support for the negative BETA QL operators 'not equal' and 'not contain' through the REST API.

Two new date formats 'dd-MM-yyyy' and 'yyyy-MM-dd' are now supported for queries based on the system date attributes 'DM Creation Date' and 'DM Modification Date'. The new date formats are supported for queries through REST API, scripting API and GUI (Search DM).

System Configuration

The new system property -J-DexitOnComplete=true can be used while running No-GUI client through command-line, to invoke its termination after the completion of script executions.

Regarding data migration, support has been added for the definition of a custom, external decompression tool (e.g. 7-Zip) to be used by the SPDRM client during DM Import, instead of the default java-based archives decompression implementation. The external decompression tool can be used to improve the performance of DM Import of source DM archive packages.
