New features
Matrix Item Attribute / Navigation Filtering
In a standard matrix, would show as a fully populated grid. However, whilst Team A does provide part of Service 1, they do not provide the element which satisfies Requirement 7 or any part of Requirement 10. Those are provided by Team B.
Cradle has always provided the facility to add textual attributes to the cross reference between items. In this example, choosing the link between Service 1 and Requirement 7 we could add Team A to note that Team A provides that element of the service. The new feature lets you filter the matrix results in the transitive cells by adding a Regex filter to the navigation being followed. This will look for a match between the attribute of the item and the text in the cross reference. In this case looking for the item Identity will give the following result.
Cross Reference Attributes
Allow restriction to a set of pre-defined values. Allow replacement or append behaviour when selecting from a list.
TLS
Upgrade OpenSSL and TLS to support TLS v1.3
Adaptations
An improvement in the behaviour dealing with pre-existing adaptation links.
Fixes:
- Issue when importing change history with overwrite set to on.
