What's New in Syniti Replicate 10.5
Here are highlights of the significant changes in 10.5.
New Features
Replicate Client Application
Added the replicate-cli.exe tool to interact with a server agent from a command line, including upgrading and downgrading metadata
Enhancements
All Components
Added Microsoft.Data.SqlClient 2.0 to allow using Azure SQL with specific authentication settings options. The new SqlClient can be used for existing MSSQL connections.
Management Center
Provided an option to save the Metadata Scanning files on the Replicate Server
Replication Agent
-
We now support serializing dates and times using the Parquet type TIMESTAMP_MILLIS.
-
Introduced a ConvertToDateTime mapping function to convert a decimal field to a datetime when that decimal field contains a datetime.
Bug Fixes
API
Fixed an issue with record counts and session length not being properly reset when calling HistoryReader.Read() and the resulting message has SessionType.None.
Log Reader
Fixed an issue where mirroring failed with a “Parameter FILE is not a valid name” message when the mirroring was started and records in the source table were updated
Management Center
-
Fixed an obfuscation issue for CSV Replication properties related to “Add Transactional Info”

Corrected the deletion and recreation of mirroring staging tables when Refresh Schema Information was performed on an Oracle target
-
Fixed an issue where a timeout error displayed when closing the log viewer of a remote server

Replication Agent
-
Fixed the mirroring of BLOBs and CLOBs from an Oracle source that resulted in NULL fields in the target
