SP_D3A model : short

What are SP_D3A and SP_TICK16?

New Features

– maintenance release, no new features

Bug Fixes

– Continuous Contract Manager memory corruption problem causing failure to recognize continuous symbols properly
– On some rare conditions (e.g. upon creation of a new chart after first start up) may trigger NeoTicker to check if the user wanted to go offline mode on next reconnection, can causes odd problems like going offline instead of reconnecting to active data feed (including Sim Server)
– Time Chart Tick Replay over Last N Days would continuously trying to load data if the number of days requested to replay is beyond the starting date time of the currently loaded chart data series. Pressing the abort button can stop the process.
– Time Chart Time Axis Labels when displayed in 2 lines, some windows sizing and monitor configuration can cause the second line to show the upper part of the letters only.

Bug Fixes

– Continuous Contract symbols not properly recognized when pulling daily data from eSignal
– After disconnect, if user modify a time chart by adding / deleting data series, and then reconnect to real-time data service or sim server, the time chart may not be able to stream updates to the proper data series
– Sim Server failed to load EOD data after failure to initialize tick stream file
– Sim Server does not load the last day of tick data for replay if the ending time is set to any time before GMT noon
– double processing on system performance position query if editing of a query field is not completed while the Start button is pressed
– system performance position query on a completely blank query can ocassionally cause a crash
– When an indicator is set to update on bar completion, having more than 1 link, and that the primary link is a data series, the indicator would fail to update on some special initial conditions. Similar problem can manifest on tick replay all days
– Quote Setup window > Format tab > Sig. Fig changes to the digits not applied properly to the quote window
– Data series loading used the NeoTicker global time zone, as oppose to take into account the user specified locale in the time chart, quote formula environment, etc., leading to missing part of the data series in the first day of the chart

We’ve been working very hard to address several important issues. I think it is almost ready and it is a good time to let you all know what the next release is all about.

First, we have redesigned the way NeoTicker and Sim Server cooperate such that the reconnection issue should now be taken care of.

Second, several Sim Server related known issues are addressed in this release.

Third, a new IQFeed data server is now ready, it has the core changes needed to work with the latest release of IQFeed client from DTN. Future versions will include support of other features from IQFeed.

Several reported serious bugs, although only happen rarely, are identified and addressed.

Some simple UI change requests are included to improve usage experience.
