Aaproc Release Notes ==================== Version 0.13.2 (2026-09-03) --------------------------- * Fixed a bug in the hiding of sibling symbolic links in a dataset directory when processing (enabled via the HideSiblingSymlinksWhenProcess configuration file option) that would cause symbolic links with relative targets to not be recognized as sibling symbolic links. * Fixed a bug in the aap startup logic, where if the pathname of a directory that did not exist were given as a directory argument to aap, aap would exit with an error. This bug was due to a bug in Java's Files.isSameFile method, where it would throw an exception if either of the pathname arguments to it were for files that did not exist. * Fixed a bug in the hiding of sibling symbolic links in a dataset directory when processing (enabled via the HideSiblingSymlinksWhenProcess configuration file option) that would cause processing to fail even before starting the underlying processing program if a dataset file were a symbolic link to a target pathname that did not exist. This bug was due to a bug in Java's Files.isSameFile method, where it would throw an exception if either of the pathname arguments to it were for files that did not exist. Version 0.13.1 (2026-09-02) --------------------------- * Fixed a bug in the hiding of sibling symbolic links in a dataset directory when processing (enabled via the HideSiblingSymlinksWhenProcess configuration file option) that prevented sibling symbolic links with a bare filename target from being recognized as sibling symbolic links. Version 0.13.0 (2026-06-17) --------------------------- * Made finding container-file datasets not produce a nonfatal error if an external container file shows up on disk before the container file. This ordering is probably rare, but it could happen, so now it's handled correctly if it does. * Removed the aap `-s` command-line flag, and changed the meaning of the aap `-v` command-line flag to not control whether a stack trace is printed. Now, a stack trace is printed for any unhandled exception. Version 0.12.0 (2025-09-25) --------------------------- * Changed repo2 fetch repository from , which is defunct, to . * Removed the "Integration refinement failed" check because it was erroneously causing aap to terminate some autoPROC dataset processing jobs prematurely. If those jobs had been allowed to continue, they may have eventually succeeded in processing the dataset. Such jobs are now allowed to continue. Version 0.11.0 (2025-07-25) --------------------------- * Added a "-o option" command-line flag to aap allowing configuration file options to be specified on the command line. * Fixed the pending-datasets count. Previously, it was always 0. * If aap is interrupted while processing a dataset, or if an error occurs related to running the processing program as a child process, the processing directory for the dataset that was being processed is now deleted. Previously, if you stopped aap while datasets were being processed, you'd have to figure out which datasets were being processed and then delete their processing directories by hand before starting aap again. Otherwise, aap would see those processing directories and conclude that those datasets had failed to process. Now, you can stop aap, and it will delete the processing directories of any datasets it was in the middle of processing before it exits. * Added the HideSiblingSymlinksWhenProcess configuration file option to control whether to hide sibling symbolic links in a dataset directory when processing. * Fixed a bug where watched directories were being scheduled for registration at a future time after indexing, and as a result, if any directory change occurred after indexing but before registration completed, it could be missed (e.g., a new dataset file created in a watched directory could be missed). Now, watched directories are registered, and registration is confirmed to be complete, before indexing. * Increased minimum Java version from 7 to 8. * Added support for container-file datasets (e.g., HDF5). As part of this, added the OneImagePerFileDatasetPattern, ContainerFileDatasetPattern, and ContainerFileDatasetExternalPattern configuration file options; and deprecated the ImagePattern configuration file option, for which you should use OneImagePerFileDatasetPattern instead. Version 0.10.0 (2022-06-02) --------------------------- * Added the ProcessingDirectoryPath configuration file option to specify the processing directory pathname relative to the dataset directory. * Deprecated the ProcessingDirectoryName configuration file option and made it an alias for ProcessingDirectoryPath. Version 0.9.2 (2020-10-30) -------------------------- * Upgraded the Protobuf library to 3.12.2. * Added prerequisites to the INSTALL file. Version 0.9.1 (2020-10-22) -------------------------- * Changed the configuration parser to use the non-localized message of an IllegalArgumentException for consistency with the rest of the suite which uses only non-localized messages. Version 0.9.0 (2017-10-11) -------------------------- * Changed the source of processing results; the aimless.log file is no longer the source; now processing results are obtained from the autoPROC.xml file. Version 0.8.0 (2017-05-10) -------------------------- * Added support, via the PostProcessHook configuration file option, for executing an external hook command after processing a dataset. Version 0.7.0 (2016-07-21) -------------------------- * Added the FileSystemPollMetadata configuration file option to control whether file metadata is read from the file system when polling for changes. * Removed "autoPROC_CreateGpxPictures=no" from the autoPROC process invocation. If this option is desired, it can be added to the user's ~/.autoPROC file. * Added the ExcludeDirectoryPattern configuration file option to specify directories to exclude from consideration when monitoring directory trees for datasets. Version 0.6.0 (2016-01-29) -------------------------- * Added "-xml" to the autoPROC process invocation. Version 0.5.0 (2015-12-14) -------------------------- * Changed the default diffraction center image regular expression pattern to "(?i)cell_z(x|y)_(fly_)?[0-9_]+\\.(cbf|img)", which matches fly-scan diffraction center images and simplifies the pattern. Version 0.4.0 (2015-10-21) -------------------------- * Added the NumThreadsPerProcessJob configuration file option to control the number of threads to use per dataset process job. * Added "autoPROC_CreateGpxPictures=no" to the autoPROC process invocation. Version 0.3.0 (2015-08-21) -------------------------- * Added a dataset processing supervisor that will abort processing of a dataset when certain conditions are detected. This is controlled by three new configuration file options: MaxProcessRunTime, ProcessSupervisorPeriod, and MaxRefinedDetDistDelta. * Changed the logic for determining when to process a dataset to not process a dataset if the process log file is present or if there is a record of a previous process attempt that failed. Version 0.2.0 (2015-03-06) -------------------------- * Fixed a bug in the aap program related to how it reads configuration files where some configuration files could have been erroneously ignored. * Added the PerTreeResults configuration file option that, when enabled, causes the aap program to write a results report file at the root of each directory tree specified on the command line. This could be useful, for example, when processing datasets for multiple people or organizations at once, where datasets are located below a directory corresponding to each owning person or organization, and those directories can be specified on the command line. In this case, a results report file would be written to each of the specified directories containing just the results for the datasets under that tree. Version 0.1.1 (2014-09-10) -------------------------- * Created a log file of the autoPROC process program's standard output stream output. When invoked in a terminal, process creates a log file of what it wrote to its standard output stream. But when invoked as a subprocess of the aap program, it does not create this log file. Now aap creates this log file for process to achieve the same behavior. Version 0.1.0 (2014-07-24) -------------------------- * First public release.
