Patch 5 for AR System 7.5 released

Update: read this too.

A couple of days ago patch 5 of AR System 7.5 was released. I guess on schedule in BMCs "1 patch release every 3 month" plan. The list of fixes is long. Still with some workflow bugs being fixed. And also some web service fix that I hope will reduce the produced size of a web service call. And also support more "functionality" in web service. It is good they are fixing things. But I still feel, how can it be possible they have so many 'critical' errors in there application 1,5 year after release.

Anyway, finaly customers start talking about upgrading to 7.5. And finally there will be some action in developing for 7.5. I myself have been waiting long time. And now I actually feel I really have to start setting up environments for building something new and fun in AR System 7.5. And to really get a good feel of the new development environment.

As a side note. Patch 9 for AR System 7.1 was release 2 months ago. And I have not talked about that. Not so many fixes as the 7.5 release. But not the least one memory leak related to web services and one stack overflow when to many filters trigger was what I noted directly. And both the 7.5 and 7.1 release seem to have more then one fix related to currency fields. Mostly in converting to other to/from other field types.
