Teamstudio Developer Tools Release: What’s New?

We are pleased to announce the latest maintenance release of Teamstudio Developer Tools Suite - Edition 35.0.2. This release concentrates on further stability and compatibility enhancements within the product suite, especially for the later versions of HCL Notes v12.0.2 and v14.

What's New in this Release

This maintenance release of Teamstudio Developer Tools Suite e35.0.2 includes several updates and fixes that help improve your experience in using our tools. Here's what you can expect in the latest update:

CIAO Updates:  We have added in Build Manager 64-bit utility support. This prepares CIAO! for integration into our next release of Build Manager. Additionally, we've made a significant change to the CIAO! templates—they are no longer hidden. This update provides a straightforward path for those with in-house customizations in previous versions to upgrade to the latest versions of CIAO!

64-bit Client Enhancements:  Specific to 64-bit users, we have resolved issues when launching the tools on Notes v14 and a Delta crash during execution of data comparisons.

Enhanced Stability:  Fixes have been implemented to help prevent the Notes API from crashing within both Analyzer and Delta products when encountering corrupt data.

Improved Usability: We have made some improvements to enhance usability such as better handling of multi-monitor setups and enhancements to the Delta user interface. Additionally, we have fixed issues with the Analyzer analysis template views and added improvements to shared actions and Access Control List (ACL) roles support. Also, we have added the ability to display Javascript library source in Delta comparisons.

For current Build Manager customers who are eager to use HCL Notes 64-bit promotion workstations, this release of CIAO! will be manditory for Build Manager integration once the new version is released at the end of May. Please plan your CIAO! upgrades accordingly.

Please see our release notes for more information and a detailed Fix List.

Obtaining the Latest Version

You will find separate installers for both the 32-bit & 64-bit versions of our Developer Tools on our product download page.  It's important to choose the installer that corresponds with your Notes client version, regardless of the Windows version you are using. For example, if you have a 32-bit Notes client on a 64-bit Windows system, make sure to download the 32-bit installer. The installer will automatically verify your Notes version during the installation process to ensure that you do not install incompatible tools. This safeguard ensures a smooth upgrade process.   

If you are a Teamstudio Profiler customer please note that it is currently only supported on 32-bit Notes clients and not included within the 64-bit installer package.

How to Install or Upgrade

Once you've selected the appropriate installer for your HCL Notes Client version, begin the installation process. The setup wizard will guide you through the configuration steps. If you have a previous release installed, please ensure that you uninstall the 'Notes Tools' before proceeding with the new installer using the Windows add/remove programs control panel.

For users with active subscriptions, your current serial numbers will continue to work as before. Should you need to update your keys, you'll receive a prompt when starting any tool to open the License Manager, where you can add or update your subscription licenses.

Use the license wizard to add your existing or new Teamstudio product license details.
