Dear Apatar Developers,

The Apatar Team is pleased to inform you that Apatar Open Source Data Integration 1.6.8 has been released. Some new features were added and another bug was fixed. You may find a brief summary below.

New features

a) The Generate UUID has been added to allow creating Universally Unique Identifiers (UUID). With this function, Apatar users can label their records with unique identifiers and be sure that these IDs never be unintentionally used by anyone else. Information labeled with UUIDs can later be combined/migrated into a target system free of any name conflicts. A user’s guide with screenshots is available at

http://www.apatarforge.org/wiki/display/FUN/Generate+UUID+Function

b) The RegExp function was enhanced to return an empty string if the value entered does not match the specified regular expression. This feature can be useful, for example, whenever you need to separate the value from one field in your source into two different ones in your target. That is, so as to avoid having the same value in both fields (one of which is likely to be incorrect) in your result. To enable this feature, Apatar users can tick the corresponding checkbox in the function’s configuration window. For more:

Bugs fixed

a) Issues on the connector for Salesforce were fixed.

b) The ToBoolean function was repared.

c) The icons for the Date, Time, and Timestamp functions in operation configuration window are now displayed correctly.

Hi.
Are the sources to this available anywhere? The svn repository at http://apatar.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/apatar/ seems to contain v1.001

Thanks
