Galaxy "Andromeda" Release 2402

We are pleased to announce the release of Galaxy “Andromeda” 2402 which includes the following features along with various bug fixes:

  • Improved Limit Viewer performance by modifying the query it uses for the database view to be significantly simpler and tailored more tightly to limit-checker messages: Switched to a persistent PreparedStatement for querying the view. Simplified the tracking of log_id used in the query. Used native data types from JDBC that match the columns instead of getting everything as a string and then parsing into the needed type.

  • Added a recalculation of time remaining after the overhead of STOL WAIT directive processing to improve the accurracy of directive timing.

  • Implemented the ability to set a time limit on how long the frame_sorter listens for a TCP connection on it's input. This feature was documented but not previously implemented. Also added `(<station>:<pid>)' to frame_sorter event messages to clarify which instance of frame_sorter is logging which message.
