yFiles AJAX Changelog

This file documents the feature enhancements and API changes to previous yFiles AJAX versions.

yFiles AJAX 2.2 changes since 2.1.1

General Changes

Bugfixes

  • The edge realizer set with method UpdateServlet#setDefaultEdgeRealizer(EdgeRealizer) was not used in UpdateServlet#createEdge(Graph2D,Node,Node,int).

Changes in Technical Requirements

  • The SVG functionality (SVG mode, rendering of SVG nodes, and SVG export) provided by the bundled ySVG libraries now requires at least Java 1.6, due to upgrading to ySVG 2.5. To enable SVG functionality with older Java releases, use a previous (2.4.x) ySVG release, or the ySVG JARs (ysvg.jar, batik.jar) bundled with a previous yFiles AJAX release (ySVG 2.4 uses Batik 1.7, while ySVG 2.5 uses Batik 1.8).

yFiles AJAX 2.1.1 Changes Since 2.1

General Changes

  • yFiles AJAX is now bundled with yFiles for Java 2.10.1.2

Improvements

  • Added onTileLoadingFailed and onSVGLoadingFailed callbacks to the client-side GraphCanvas.
  • Improved error handling for servlet requests: instead of just returning a 404 status code, the servlets will now return a status code adequate to the error condition (400 (bad request), 404 (not found), or 500 (internal server error)), and write an error message to the response stream.

Bugfixes

  • Image tiles were requested even when the graph was not loaded yet, causing 404 errors and HTTP session problems.
  • The client-side GraphCanvas#paintDetailThreshold property had no effect in bitmap mode.
  • BaseServlet#getReadWriteLock() threw a NullPointerException when no HierarchyManager was registered with the provided graph.
  • The group node open/close operation sometimes didn't work in Chrome.

yFiles AJAX 2.1 changes since 2.0.1

General Changes

  • yFiles AJAX is now bundled with yFiles for Java 2.10
  • yFiles AJAX is now based on Dojo 1.8.3
  • All yFiles AJAX demo sources were adapted to HTML5 and Dojo 1.8.3. Most deprecated Dojo calls were replaced accordingly.

Improvements

  • The client-side MoveViewportInputMode now uses a css class instead of a hardcoded css property in order to change the cursor icon.
  • The new GenericGroupNodeStateLabelProvider interface and the default StateLabelProviderPainter implementation can be used to enable client-side expand/collapse functionality when using GenericGroupNodeRealizers.
  • The new DynamicGraphDemo shows how to create a graph dynamically on the server, and how to use GenericGroupNodeRealizers in yFiles AJAX applications.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a concurrency issue that could lead to IllegalPathStateExceptions on the server.
  • Fixed the setNodeURL(), setEdgeURL(), setNodeDescription() and setEdgeDescription() convenience methods provided by the com.yworks.yfiles.server.tiles.servlet.BaseServlet to create the corresponding data provider if doesn't already exist. Also, the corresponding data provider keys are now public.
  • The client-side mouse position that can be accessed from the server-side ActionContext instance now uses correct world coordinates.

Incompatible Changes

  • All JSON server responses now don't use "JSON prefixing" anymore, making it possible to parse the responses with JSON.parse(). This behavior can be reverted to use JSON prefixing using the yfiles.ajax.config.json.prefixing context parameter.

yFiles AJAX 2.0.1 changes since 2.0.0.1

Improvements

  • Improved the server libraries thread safety handling in order to prevent deadlocks that could occur in combination with some servlet container implementations.
  • Added a read/write lock API that is now used by the library and demo Servlets instead of simple synchronization in order to fix concurrent modification issues.
  • Added mouseClickSize and mouseClickTime properties on the client-side GraphCanvas to configure when mouse down and up events are considered mouse clicks for the graph canvas.
  • Improved the setRenderMode() implementation of the client-side graph canvas to switch modes without flickering.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed the client-side GraphCanvas#updateWorldBounds() method to properly call the onWorldBoundsChanged() callback when the world bounds changed.
  • Fixed a mouse event handling problem that prevented the RectangularSelectionMode from working in Internet Explorer.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause the svg element to be misplaced when switching from bitmap mode to svg mode.
  • The clear() function of the graph canvas will now correctly clear cached image tiles in bitmap mode and remove the SVG graphic in SVG mode.

yFiles AJAX 2.0.0.1 changes since 2.0

General Changes

  • yFiles AJAX is now bundled with yFiles for Java 2.8.0.4

Improvements

  • The yFiles AJAX license data can now be specified programmatically using the static method BaseServlet#registerLicense(String) as an alternative to deployment of the license file to the WEB-INF directory.
  • Removed library usages of event.layerX/event.layerY (deprecated in WebKit browsers). Note that because the bundled Dojo version still references these properties, deprecated warnings can still appear when running yFiles AJAX applications in Chrome.
  • If the LoaderServlet fails to load the requested graph, an error message will now be logged in addition to returning a 404 status.
  • All Demos: The RequestIndicator ("loading…" message) will now correctly disappear in Internet Explorer versions 7 and 8.
  • GraphEditor Demo: The graph is now correctly updated after a layout calculation in SVG mode.
  • GraphEditor Demo: Removed scrollbars that appeared in some browsers in the overview window.
  • Basic Demo: The SVG mode button now works correctly.

Bugfixes

  • A bug in GroupNavigationMode was fixed that caused the expand/collapse operations for group nodes to be triggered during viewport drag gestures.
  • A bug in MoveViewportInputMode was fixed that caused mouse clicks to set the the move cursor, even when no drag gesture was started.

yFiles AJAX 2.0 changes since 1.4

Major New Features

  • New SVG Render Mode: In addition to the existing bitmap tile mode, the graph visualization can now be rendered as a SVG document in supported browsers.
  • Touch Support: The yFiles AJAX client now supports navigation gestures on touch devices (iOS, Android).

General Changes

  • yFiles AJAX is now based on Dojo 1.6.1 and uses yFiles for Java 2.8.0.3 on the server.
  • The SimpleAttributeDemo has been added to show how custom attributes associated with graph items can be retrieved and displayed on the client.
  • The OrgChartEditorDemo has been added as a showcase application featuring both mouse and touch gesture support.
  • All demos now provide a toggle button that can be used to switch between SVG Mode and Bitmap Mode.
  • Some demo applications have been modified to provide a better user experience on touch devices.

Improvements

  • The new class ViewportLimiter makes it possible to conveniently restrict the explorable region of a GraphCanvas. The GraphCanvas now offers a viewportLimiter property for this purpose, and all means of adjusting the viewport interactively were adapted to query the limiter. Also, methods increaseZoom(factor) and decreaseZoom(factor) have been added to provide a means of zooming while respecting the viewport limits.
  • The new zoomToPointRecognizer callback on GraphCanvas can be used to decide whether to zoom to the current mouse position or to the center of the canvas.
  • The new NavigationInputMode is now responsible for providing both mouse and touch navigation functionality. It uses the new MoveViewportInputMode and PinchInputMode classes to handle mouse and touch panning, and zooming on touch devices, respectively.
  • The new paintDetailThreshold property of class GraphCanvas can be used to set the zoom value that triggers sloppy rendering on the client.
  • Various touch input related properties have been added to the GraphCanvas: doubleTapTime, longPressTime, touchDragSize, minPinchDelta, mainTouchId.
  • Similar to the existing mouse events related to graph items, the GraphCanvas now provides corresponding events that are dispatched when a graph item is hit by a touch gesture (tap, long press, or double tap).
  • A number of low-level touch events have been added to the GraphCanvas: onTouchStart, onTouchMove, onTouchEnd, onTouchLongPress, onTouchTapped, onPinchStart, onPinch, onPinchEnd.
  • The Rubberband has been improved to support touch input.
  • The ViewPortMarker widget that can be used to create an interactive overview canvas has been improved to support the ViewportLimiter and touch input.
  • For convenience, the method GraphCanvas#getMousePosition() will now also consider touch events.
  • New GraphCanvas properties related to the added SVG support: svgBorder, svgPrefix.
  • New method GraphCanvas#setRenderMode(mode) can be used to switch the client-side render mode on the fly. The current render mode can be queried using isSVGMode() and isBitmapMode().
  • In SVG Mode, a new SVG image can be requested from the server using method GraphCanvas#invalidateSVG().
  • Callbacks onLoadSVG() and onSVGLoaded() have been added to notify clients when a SVG image request is started and finished by the GraphCanvas.
  • The behavior of the GraphCanvas#fitContent() has been improved to reduce the amount of server requests in Bitmap Mode.
  • Various convenience methods for manipulating and querying the canvas viewport and the graph's world coordinates have been added to class GraphCanvas: getWorldBounds(), getCenter(), setCenter(center), zoomTo(worldRect), setViewPointWorld(worldX,worldY), zoomWithPoint(x,y,z), getViewport(), toLocal()

Bugfixes

  • A bug was fixed in method GraphCanvas#getViewCoordinates(x,y) that caused the method to treat x or y parameters of value 0 as if the parameter was not defined.

Incompatible Changes

  • Configuring the interactive behavior of the GraphCanvas now behaves differently:

    In previous versions, panning was handled by the GraphCanvas itself. Now, the canvas uses the new NavigationInputMode to handle panning (both mouse-based and touch-based).

    Whether or not the mouse wheel triggers zooming is now controlled by the additional mouseWheelZoom property. Hence, calling setPanMode() will now create and activate a NavigationInputMode instance, while setNoInteractionMode() will disable the navigation mode and mouseWheelZoom.

    As the canvas now doesn't handle view point movement anymore, the callbacks onMove(mover,leftTop) and onFirstMove() have been removed.

  • As the behavior of GraphCanvas#fitContent() has changed to reduce the amount of server requests in Bitmap Mode, this may cause problems in rare cases where the world bounds actually changed during the fitContent() call. For details on this incompatibility, please see the corresponding section in the README.

yFiles AJAX 1.4 changes since 1.3

New Features

  • There is a new ResizeNodesMode for resizing a set of selected nodes. It is integrated as a child input mode into the EditMode and featured in the Graph Editor demo.
  • yFiles AJAX now supports Undo/Redo. This is demonstrated in the Graph Editor demo.

General

  • The directory layout of the yFiles AJAX distribution has been improved. The distribution no longer contains a prebuilt web application archive (war). Instead, an Ant script is included that allows to easily build the web application, and detailed documentation has been added for the configuration of yFiles AJAX projects in various IDEs. A detailed description of the new directory structure can be found in the README file.
  • The yFiles for Java library, which is used for the server side of yFiles AJAX, is now part of the distribution.
  • yFiles AJAX is now based on Dojo 1.5 and uses yFiles for Java 2.8 on the server.
  • ySVG is no longer bundled with yFiles AJAX. Optionally, ySVG can be used to enable SVG support.
  • To enable additional scalable graphics export functionality, yExport can be used together with yFiles AJAX 1.4.
  • yFiles AJAX now supports Firefox 3.5 and 3.6 and Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8. Firefox 3.0 is no longer supported, since Dojo does not support it any more.
  • The layered Dojo build files yfiles-ajax-prerequisites.js and yfiles-ajax-base.js have been merged into a single file yfiles-ajax.js. The layer file yfiles-ajax-complete.js previously used in some of the demos which additionally contained the yFiles AJAX client-side demo sources and resources has been removed.
  • Applications written for yFiles AJAX 1.3 should also run with yFiles AJAX 1.4 on the client side after adjusting the directives for including the yFiles AJAX client-side components as indicated above. On the server side some changes are needed, if the application uses some of the few APIs in yFiles for Java which were incompatibly changed. This applies mainly to label models. See the yFiles for Java Developer's Guide for details.

Improvements

  • If ySVG is present, the graphs can be exported to SVG (using a "downloadGraph" request to the LoaderServlet).
  • When a set of nodes is moved, the bends of edges connecting to moving nodes are moved, too.
  • The new onLoadTiles and onTilesLoaded callbacks of the GraphCanvas widget can be used to monitor server requests that update the client-side graph visualization. The demo RequestIndicator widget uses these callbacks in order to notify the user of running requests in most yFiles AJAX demo applications.
  • The handling of group nodes while editing the graph has been improved. Group nodes grow, if this is necessary to encompass all of our their child nodes as before. Group nodes do no longer shrink unless they are explicitly resized.
  • The GroupNavigationMode's enter/exit functionality now also works on Mac. A custom function that identifies an enter/exit event can now be set.

Fixed Bugs

  • The ports of edges at a group node sometimes lost contact to the group node, if a child node of the group node was deleted or resized.
  • The Dojo build file yfiles-ajax-complete.js did not contain the new demo sources.
  • In the OrgChart demo disabling business units in global view mode did not work correctly, if there were collapsed business units.

yFiles AJAX 1.3 changes since 1.2

New Features

  • A new demo has been added which displays the organization chart of a company. Several possible application features are demonstrated.
  • Another new demo, the network monitoring demo, shows how live state of a network can be queried and displayed.
  • The graph canvas shows a configurable loading image, if it is waiting for tiles from the server and no old scaled tiles are available.
  • It is now possible to restrict the range of possible zoom values for the graph canvas.
  • The new client-side class GraphHighlighter eases customized highlighting of nodes and/or edges. Its usage is demonstrated in the OrgChart demo.

General

  • yFiles AJAX is now based on Dojo 1.4.0 and yFiles for Java 2.7. Older versions of yFiles for Java on the server are no longer possible.
  • yFiles for Java 2.7 includes support for the GraphML file format. Thus, the separate graphml.jar in the yFiles AJAX distribution is no longer necessary and has been removed.
  • yFiles AJAX ships with the ySVG extension package as before (with the new version 2.2), but does no longer rely on it. If your graphs do not use SVG nodes, you can now deploy your web application using yFiles AJAX without the ysvg.jar and batik.jar library files.
  • Applications written for yFiles AJAX 1.2 should also run with yFiles AJAX 1.3 on the client side. On the server side some changes may be needed, if the application uses GraphML directly. The GraphML API did not change much, but the classes reside in different packages. See the yFiles for Java Developer's Guide for details.
  • yFiles AJAX now supports Firefox 3.0 and 3.5 and Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8. Firefox 1.x and 2.x are no longer supported, since Dojo does not support them any more.
  • Handling the requests for custom realizer images (as used by the palette in the Graph Editor demo) has been moved from the UpdateServlet to the new PaletteServlet.

Improvements

  • The graph canvas uses scaled old tiles in fitContent while waiting for new tiles from the server. This technique already existed, but was only used for setZoom.
  • If the canvas is dragged while the mouse is over a node an onMouseOutNode event is fired. An onMouseOverNode event is fired when the drag ends. This eases tooltip handling for example.
  • The demos and demo graphs have been brushed up.
  • Configuring the defaults and registering custom node realizers in the UpdateServlet has been improved.

Fixed Bugs

  • A workaround for a bug in Internet Explorer now prevents that the overview marker becomes opaque. This happened, if the overview marker was once wider or higher than 4096 pixels. Even if it became smaller again it stayed opaque.
  • View configurators with no other reference were garbage collected. This has been fixed.
  • The pathSet function of the canvas was not called, if the new graph was empty.

yFiles AJAX 1.2 changes since 1.1.2

New Features

  • The new action framework simplifies adding custom server side functionality to an application using yFiles AJAX.
  • A new API was introduced for customizing the views (and the renderers) used for creating image tiles of a graph on the server.
  • The new Treasure Hunt tutorial and the new Swimlanes demo application provide examples for using the action framework. Moreover, the Swimlanes demo also uses ViewConfigurators.

General

  • yFiles AJAX is now based on Dojo 1.2.1.
  • The demo applications for yFiles AJAX now depend yFiles for Java 2.6, while yFiles AJAX itself still works with yFiles for Java 2.5.

Improvements

  • Some static support methods of the BaseServlet like newGraph and cacheGraph were protected. They are now public, so they can be used without inheriting from the BaseServlet.
  • We added a workaround for an Internet Explorer bug which under certain circumstances resulted in an offset of the preview line for a customized CreateEdgeMode.
  • The layout call in the LayoutServlet is also encapsulated in a protected method (doLayout) in order to provide better customization possibilities. Previously only the creation of the layouter (createLayouter) was customizable.
  • There is a new optional parameter customData for the methods changing a graph in the client side Graph and HierarchyManager classes. These methods are asynchronous and use callbacks to notify the client side application when the requested operation succeeded or failed. The customData is not sent to the server, but it is passed to these callbacks. This enables associating extra data with specific calls which can then be used in client side post processing.
  • The name of the license file is no longer fixed. It can be configured with a context parameter of the web application.

Fixed Bugs

  • Fixed race conditions which sometimes created NullPointerExceptions in BaseServlet.writeWorldBounds.
  • The pathSet function on the canvas was sometimes called, before the hit test data for the new graph was also loaded. Client code connected to pathSet, which depended on the hit test data for the new graph (e.g. highlighting a node in the new graph), was affected. Now pathSet is not called before the new hit test data is available.
  • Exceptions occurred occasionally on the server, if the user ran two instances of the grouped graph demo. The UpdateServlet no longer tries to close already closed groups or to open already open groups, which lead to exceptions in yFiles for Java.
  • Moving a group node to its own subgraph is now just ignored instead of creating an infinite recursion on the server.

yFiles AJAX 1.1.2 changes since 1.1.1

Improvements

  • It is now possible to set a maximum zoom level for the fitContent function of a GraphCanvas. This is demostrated in the demos (e.g. Graph Viewer demo).
  • The pre-compiled server side demo classes are now packaged in the separate yfiles-ajax-demos.jar instead of being part of the yfiles-ajax.jar with the product classes.
  • yFiles AJAX now ships with GraphML 3.1.
  • The EditMode is now configurable and customizable. Configuration includes for example enabling or disabling the creation of new nodes. Customization includes for example using your own function for creating nodes.
  • The CreateEdgeMode is now customizable.
  • The error handling of the build script was improved.

Fixed Bugs

  • The Grouped Graph demo failed in a local installation, if the y.jar file from a yFiles for Java 2.6 distribution was used (instead of yFiles for Java 2.5).
  • The functions getNodes and isNormalNode for the client side HierarchyManager were fixed.
  • Under some circumstances the EditMode produced "this._canvas.getHitTest().getElementType is not a function" errors.
  • The MoveSelectionMode sometimes produced errors when trying to move a node.
  • For failed edge creations onNodeCreationFailed was called instead of onEdgeCreationFailed.
  • For failed node creations onNodeCreated was called instead of onNodeCreationFailed.
  • The second tutorial did not work, if the sources were extracted using the tutorials target.

yFiles AJAX 1.1.1 changes since 1.1

Improvements

  • The number of server requests made for resizing an overview GraphCanvas has been significantly reduced. As a result for example the new overview in the Graph Viewer demo is available much earlier after dragging one of the splitters.
  • The GroupNavigationMode now keeps track of group nodes closed on switching the display to their subgraph and reopens them on returning from their inner graph. Previously, after entering an open group node and returning from it, the group node was closed.
  • A further customization hook has been added to the LoaderServlet, the method customizeGraphMLIOHandler, which can be used to add custom attributes to be read from a GraphML file or written to it. This is not possible with the getIoHandler method, since it has no access to the graph instance used for reading or writing.

Incompatible API Changes

  • The client side function HierarchyManager#getVisibleGraphParent() does not take a parameter any more. It had an unnecessary nodeId parameter, which did not have any influence on its result. Since this function is called from client side JavaScript code, which ignores unnecessary parameters, there is not really a need to change any code except for clarification.

yFiles AJAX 1.1 changes since 1.0.1

New Features

  • If yExport is present on the server, the LoaderServlet automatically provides the download formats PDF, SWF, EMF and EPS which are supported by yExport.
  • A new Grouped Graph Demo has been added.

General

  • yFiles AJAX is now based on Dojo 1.0.

Improvements

  • Support for grouping and folding of nodes has been added.
  • yFiles AJAX is packaged with the new layered build system of Dojo. This enables using custom Dojo builds as a basis for yFiles AJAX instead of the Dojo release which ships with yFiles AJAX (Dojo 1.0.2).
  • Styles for yFiles AJAX widgets have been separated into necessary style (e.g. positioning of tiles in the graph canvas) and optional style (e.g. color of selected graph elements in the graph canvas). The latter can be customized by changing the centralized yfiles AJAX style sheet.
  • The Graph Editor demo now ships with client side source code.
  • The visual effect for zooming with the mouse wheel has been improved.
  • There is a new field mouseWheelScrollFactor on the GraphCanvas widget, which can be used to control the amount of zoom change,
  • A new request for available download formats has been added to the LoaderServlet. An example for its usage can be found in the Graph Editor.
  • For the highlight rectangle for a node, the additional width and height is now constant and does no longer depend on the size of the node and the zoom level. There is a new field highlightNodeSurroundPixels on the GraphCanvas widget, which can be used to control the additional width and height.
  • The client API documentation has been completed. It is available in the docs/client/api directory of the deployed yFiles AJAX web application and there is a link to it from the developer's guide.

Fixed Bugs

  • Selecting an edge inside an open group node is now possible.
  • Fixed a bug which prevented proper deacivation of the rubberband. This bug showed up, when you canceled a zoom area operation in the Graph Viewer demo by deselecting the zoom area button. The rubberband showed up on the next mouse drag.

Incompatible API Changes

  • The protected method LoaderServlet#getFileForGraphName(String) has been removed, since loading graphs from files might not be possible for some servlet containers and/or configurations. A new method LoaderServlet#getGraphResourceStream(String) has been introduced, which can now be used to customize the selection of graph resources in derived servlets instead of the removed method. It returns an input stream instead of a file. The default implementation uses ServletContext#getResourceAsStream(String).
  • The protected method LoaderServlet#loadableGraphs(HttpServletResponse) still has the same signature, but does no longer return a list of all files in the subdirectory resources/graphs/ of the web application. Instead it returns the contents of the resource LoaderServlet#LOADABLE_GRAPHS_LIST. This way the method can also work in an environment where all resources are fetched via the servlet container.

Porting to Dojo 1.0

If you already developed an application with yFiles AJAX 1.0, which you want to upgrade to take advantage of the new version 1.1 of yFiles AJAX, the main work is probably upgrading to Dojo 1.0. The client side API of yFiles AJAX did not change much, but the Dojo API did. There is a lot of documentation for porting applications to Dojo 1.0 on the Dojo website. At the time of this writing it can be found in "documentation" >> "Dojo Porting Guides".

Here is a list of some changes in Dojo, which were the most relevant for porting yFiles AJAX itself. This is not intended as a replacement for the information on the Dojo website, but as a sort of quick introduction to the topic from the yFiles AJAX perspective.

  • dojo.io.bind no longer exists. The method attribute has been removed from the arguments object of the successor functions dojo.xhrGet and dojo.xhrPost. Instead of a mimetype attribute, there is now a handleAs attribute. Its values do no longer follow the mime conventions. An important new value is json-comment-filtered, the recommended way to transfer JSON data to the client, since it prevents some possible JavaScript cross site exploits, which were reported to be possible under certain circumstances for plain JSON responses. The signature of the load and error callbacks has changed.
  • Most of the subpackages of Dojo such as dojo.event or dojo.html no longer exist. Some functions moved to the dojo namespace (e.g. dojo.event.connect, see below), some do no longer exist.
  • dojo.event.connect becomes dojo.connect. Remove the dojo.require("dojo.event.*") statement and keep track of the handle which is returned by the connect call, if you want to disconnect again, because disconnect now needs the handle. dojo.event.connectOnce no longer exists.
  • The wildcard notation as in dojo.require("dojo.event.*") is no longer supported.
  • Several widgets moved from dojo.widget to dijit, dojox or one of their subpackages.
  • dojo.widget.byId becomes dijit.byId.
  • The dojoType attribute for specifying a widget in the HTML markup now expects the fully qualified class name as its value, e.g. use dojoType="yfiles.client.tiles.widget.GraphCanvas" instead of dojoType="yfiles.client.tiles:GraphCanvas".
  • dojo.html.getMarginBox and similar functions no longer exist. You can now use dojo.marginBox, but be aware that the returned object has a an attribute w instead of the former width and h instead of height.

yFiles AJAX 1.0.1 changes since 1.0

Improvement

  • BaseServlet: Cached graphs can be removed from the cache. They could only be overwritten before.
  • A newer version of GraphML is bundled with yFiles AJAX. Together with the new ySVG library mentioned above it is now possible to export a graph with SVG nodes from the yFiles AJAX editor demo as a GraphML file, which can be read by the current yEd graph editor without loosing the SVG data for the nodes.
  • Graph Viewer Demo: Tooltips are now correctly displayed with Internet Explorer 7.

Fixed Bugs

  • LoaderServlet: URL and Description of downloaded graphs were not written.
  • LoaderServlet: An exception occurred, if the "bmp" format was not available.
  • SVG: a new version of ySVG ships with yFiles AJAX. It contains a fix for a rare bug leading to an infinite loop while painting SVG nodes on the yFiles AJAX server.
  • HitInfo: The end points of the path for an edge were the source and target ports of the edge instead the ends of the visible path of the edge (source and target intersection). This is relevant, if node events are disabled and edge events are enabled for a GraphCanvas.
  • The web.xml template in the developers guide was missing in the binary distribution.
  • InfoServlet: Labels transfered were not correctly escaped.
