List of critical changes in version 3.12.25

Critical changes

Workflow Processes

The way of processing and delivering messages from the message queue with guaranteed delivery has changed. Now delivery is performed using the process execution queue.

2 public methods of the WorkflowMessageItemManager manager are marked as outdated:

public IList<WorkflowMessageDeliveryData> GetMessageItemsToDeliver()

public IWorkflowMessageItem GetFirstUnreadMessage(
       IWorkflowMessageType messageType,
       IWorkflowInstance destInstance,
       Guid elementUid)

Instead of the second method, the following one can be used:

public IWorkflowMessageItem GetUnreadMessage(
       IWorkflowMessageType messageType,
       IWorkflowInstance destInstance)

There is nothing to replace the first method because this method is not necessary after the change.

Major changes

A timestamp service was created that returns numeric values that increase synchronously over time on all application servers.
The FireBird database connection pool was disabled in the database connection string. Customers who already use ELMA should fix the connection string manually by adding the attribute “pooling = False”. The example section in the configuration.config file:
```
<connectionStrings>
  <add name="MainDB" connectionString="data source=localhost;initial catalog={CONFIGDIR}\base.fdb;user id=sysdba;password=masterkey;character set=UNICODE_FSS;dialect=3;server type=Default;pooling=False;" />
</connectionStrings>
```
Locked user icons were added to Administration – Users – Groups (including a group editing page)
When creating a document with the help of a script without specifying the folder, the document is placed in the My Documents folder of the document's author. In addition, if there are documents without a folder in the system, all documents without a folder are distributed into the My Documents folders of their authors while the server is loading. If the author of a document does not have the My Documents folder, it is automatically created and the document is placed in it.
In the Administration – System – System settings section in the External authentication module unit, the settings “Filter for importing” and “Automatic import” were renamed.
