Release Notes PTV xServer 1.18.1
PTV xCluster Server
1.18.1.2
- Improvement: Updated Java server runtime to JDK 1.7.0_71. Java clients are still compliant with Java 6.
- Bug Fix: The distanceCalculation parameter is nillable.
1.18.1.1
- Bug Fix: Current and last row index of distance matrix calculation progress did not match the actual number of rows (it was 1 too large).
1.18.1.0
- Feature: Replaced routing profiles called dimaCar.ini and dimaTruck.ini by files in the XML format. Users of previous versions must convert the profiles using the profile converter from /tools/profileconverter, a documentation is provided there. The new XML profiles can be found in /conf/profiles. Please note that the PTV xCluster Server does not support the modification of the profiles via request (snippet mechanism).
- Feature: Introduced FeatureLayer as already available in PTV xRoute Server, a generic mechanism to consider additional data such as traffic patterns, preferred routes and so on (special license needed).
- Feature: PTV xRoute, PTV xTour, PTV xCluster and PTV xDima Server use the same XML profiles for routing parametrisation. These profiles can now be interchanged between these four PTV xServer. Please note that the PTV xDima, PTV xCluster and PTV xTour Server ignore the profile elements GeoDataSource and BreakAndRestRules.
- Improvement: Increased accuracy of the driving periods stored in distance matrices. So far driving periods are stored in 10s units, now up to 1s units is possible (depending on the size of the driving period).
- Improvement: The number of locations per distance matrix is now limited to 40000 (only 64-bit version).
- Improvement: Complete restructure of the PTV xServer documentation and summary in one manual.
- Improvement: Revised viewer of the PTV xServer configuration files in the management console.
