A new release of OBOE Open Business Objects for EDI has been posted on the American Coders web site. For more information visit http://www.OpenBusinessObjects.com This release contains new methods and several bug fixes. OBOE translates between several Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) document formats and EDI/XML files. The package is targeted at legacy EDI users who want to integrate their systems with the Internet quickly and easily using standards based technology. Release 2.3.1 April 20, 2001 Major changes to classes and methods. Added ability to change EDI document delimiters. - Added two methods to both X12Envelope and EDIFactEnvelope classes See envelope's Java doc for more information. - setDelimitersFromProperties() used to set delimiters as specified in oboe.properties file. 1. x12Delimiters 2. EDIFactDelimiters - setDelimiters(String) used to set delimiters from input string. Minor changes to classes and methods. OBOECodeGenerator failed to recognize multiple occurring segments when occurs set to -1. Added method getSegmentArraySize to abstract class SegmentContainer. A user of the API found this bug when he attempted to traverse subSegments. He used getSubSegmentCount method and then used getSegment method. getSubsegmentCount returns the number of active segments in use. So that when he iterated with getSegment method, two errors occurred. 1.The array wasn't completely traversed 2.He assumed getSegment always returned a segment. Note getSegment will return a null if the array position is not in use. --- Joe McVerry, President and Chief Technical Officer American Coders Ltd.
