J-CORES 1.6 Notes


Known bugs in Version 1.6.10 and before

- Database Synchronizer cannot solve record mismatch between Tables
  od21_mscl_calibration in the master and slave databases even when command
  options were given to overwrite such conflicts


Improvement by Version 1.6.10, 2011-04-25

- Improved the combo boxes to select a hole to query in Applications Operation
  and Curation. Sites and holes were sorted descending in them; they had been in
  ascending order before. The combo boxes became to expand the height of the
  extended lists up to the screen height


Improvement by Version 1.6.9, 2011-03-30

- Granted Role Sampler to print labels of sections and miscellaneous materials

- Changed to update the time stamps of samples when updating them. Before the
  time stamps were put when their creation and did not updated anymore

- Improved the combo boxes to select a hole to query samples in Application
  Sample. Holes were sorted descending in them; they had been in ascending order
  before. The combo boxes became to expand the height of the extended lists up
  to the screen height


Bug fixed by Version 1.6.9, 2011-03-30

- Bulk Export occasionally outputs some Stratigraphy fossil occurrence data
  incorrectly


Bugs fixed by Version 1.6.8, 2011-02-07

- Bulk Export occasionally output Thermal Conductivity data in wrong order

- Bulk Export occasionally output Interstitial Water (aka pore water chemistry)
  data in wrong order. Attachment files had wrong names

- Application CompositeLogViewer did not show sedimentary texture data correctly
  and did not export them to SVG correctly


Bug fixed by Version 1.6.7, 2011-01-28

- Bulk Export occasionally output Extra Scalar data in wrong order


Bugs fixed by Version 1.6.6, 2010-11-18

- When Application Uploader overwrote data of Pass-Through (aka Cryogenic and
  SQUID) and Spinner Magnetometers, it left some previous data

- Bulk Export did not output Element Analyzer bulk-CN measurement date-time
  correctly


Bugs fixed by Version 1.6.5, 2010-11-09

- Application Visual Core Description (VCD) corrupted some database records by
  some specific inputs. By reading such corrupted records Application
  CompositeLogViewer crushed as well as VCD

- When Application Uploader overwrote data of Pass-Through (aka Cryogenic and
  SQUID) and Spinner Magnetometers, it left some previous data


Improvement by Version 1.6.4, 2010-09-14

- Extended the comment fields in Application Visual Core Description to 4,000
  characters


Bugs fixed by Version 1.6.3, 2010-08-25

- Bulk Export did not output Multi Sensor Core Logger (MSCL) parameters
  reference core thickness and core liner thickness in the correct digits

- Applications CompositeLogViewer and Visual Core Description did not show
  DICOM images properly when X-ray CT scanned shorter than section

- Bulk Export did not output Multi Sensor Core Logger (MSCL) parameter magnetic
  susceptibility sensor correctly


Improvements by Version 1.6.2, 2010-08-24

- Extended the digits of Multi Sensor Core Logger (MSCL) parameters reference
  core thickness and core liner thickness

- Made the width of DICOM images configurable in Applications CompositeLogViewer
  and Visual Core Description

- Made Columns graphic representation editor and viewer switchable in
  Applications CompositeLogViewer and Visual Core Description

- Extended the maximum number of sections for each core to 98 plus core catcher
  (CC)


Bug fixed by Version 1.6.1, 2010-05-19

- Bulk Export occasionally missed outputting some parts of visual core
  description (VCD) data


Major improvement by Version 1.6.0, 2010-05-10
