What’s New in ThingWorx Utilities 7.0.1
This section describes new features and functionality in ThingWorx Utilities 7.0.1
General ThingWorx Utilities
ThingWorx Converge has been renamed to ThingWorx Utilities.
ThingWorx Utilities Integration Hub
Result set limiting and paging support ($top and $skip extraParams) have been added in all core resource providers (including relationship resource providers) and in the Resource Manager.
LinkTableBasedRelationshipResourceProvider is now documented and supported.
Nested expands are now supported.
com.ptc.cpm.util.ValueCollectionBuilder has been added, providing a more fluent programming style for building ThingWorx ValueCollections, and particularly for making ThingWorx service calls.
ThingWorx services and public Java APIs have been added for querying information about available resource providers and relationships.
Resource providers now automatically inherit model tags in the Role and Relationship vocabularies from their parent thing templates and thing shapes. Therefore, you can now apply these tags to resource provider templates and thing shapes where appropriate.
FlattenedCompositeResourceProvider, a read-only composite view provider, has been added.
Support for the signaling of partial failures has been added. Previously, some Integration Hub calls, for example, Get, could return incomplete results without making this clear to the caller. Now, this status is reflected on metadata on the return InfoTable allowing the results that were obtained to be returned while signaling the caller that these may be incomplete.
DeleteWithFeedback service has been added to resource providers. This service returns resources that could not be deleted.
Javadoc for com.ptc.cpm.util package has been included.
