New Adapters available for HTTP / HTTPS REST API and JSON
The JSON data format is also used for REST API WebService calls. Therefore, the two new Adapters complement each other perfectly in FlowHeater. In addition, the REST API Adapter can process XML and other data formats as well.
Optimizations, fixes and announcing the REST/JSON Adapters
This version introduces a number of optimizations, improvements and minor fixes. It also establishes a foundation for the soon to be available REST API and JSON Adapters. These Adapters can be used to process JSON files and structures or to invoke HTTP REST API functions. Both Adapters are presently still in ALPHA and for this reason are not included in the official release. If you want to test these Adapters you need to use the current developer BETA version.
New: Modulo Heater
The Modulo Heater is used to determine the remainder when dividing by a number. For the value returned you can decide whether or not it should include decimal places.
Two new Heaters: IndexOf and Occur
This version includes two new Heaters for string processing. First, the IndexOf Heater with which you can determine the position of a character or series of characters within a string. Second, the Occur Heater by which you can count how often a character/sequence occurs within a string.
MySQL Adapter supports login with SSL/TLS client certificate
As of this release, MySQL Adapter supports encrypted login to a MySQL database using SSL/TLS client certificates. An SSL/TLS certificate with private key is required. The necessary parameters such as public key, private key and certificate authority (CA) must be available as separate files in PEM format. If this is not the case, the data can be extracted from an existing PFX certificate file. OpenSSL, for example, can be used for this purpose.
Note: The MySQL database must of course be configured to support an SSL/TLS login.
