What to expect from 14.2

We are thrilled to announce the release of 14.2, which includes the following main improvements:

  • performance
  • general usability
  • Layout parameters
  • small enhancements

Layout parameters improvements 

Layout parameters have been improved in order to produce less errors, use less memory, and provide better messaging and log information about Layout executions, cancellations, and errors. 1 new parameter has been created to mitigate large queries of data while 2 parameters have been improved to reduce memory spikes and provide better logs and messaging: 

1. MaxCombinationToEvaluate  

A new configuration parameter has been introduced to the Board Engine in 14.2 called MaxCombinationToEvaluate to prevent the execution of excessively large Layouts.  

This parameter defines the maximum size of elements (rows × columns) that can be displayed in a Layout, while the initialization of those values now occur after the size check.   

If the requested size exceeds the defined limit, the Layout will not be executed preemptively, ensuring that no memory is allocated on the server. 

2. MaxRowsUpperLimit  

The MaxRowsUpperLimit parameter calculates the rows output from Engine to Client and improvements have been made to assist users when a Layout fails to execute. 

Users will now have more detailed in-platform and log messaging on why a Layout has failed, cancelled, or completed due to the MaxRowsUpperLimit.  

3. LayoutResponseMaxCells 

Improvements have been made so that the LayoutResponseMaxCells parameter reduces IIS memory spikes when big Layouts are executed.
