powerEvents v25

v25.0.20

18-12-2024

Features

• New VaultEvents: UpdateFolderStates_Restrictions, UpdateFolderStates_Pre and UpdateFolderStates_Post which are raised on lifecycle state changes to folders in Vault.

• The powerJobs Client script SubmitJobsOnLifecycleTransition now also supports the automatic queuing of jobs for configured Folder lifecycle transitions.

• The powerJobs Client script SubmitJobsOnVaultMenuItemClick now also supports submitting jobs from the configured Vault Context Menu for Folders.

v25.0.16

29-11-2024

Fixed

• Updated Licensing to version: 18.4.7.
  This resolves issues with failing command-line activations, the no longer working “powerEvents Information” shortcut, and rare errors when trying to display license notifications during Vault login.

• Updated powerVault to version: 25.1.11.
  This solves debugging issues with client customizations not being automatically reloaded when changes were saved while modal dialogs - such as Error Message Boxes, Inspector dialogs or other blocking windows - were open.

• Issues related to Auto-Importing the powerEvents module in PowerShell on environments where the module was never explicitly imported before and on environments where it was imported and used before.

General

• Optimized the self-hosting installation of PowerShell 7.4 by removing unnecessary files in …\Extensions\powerEvents.NetCore (ref and runtimes folders)

v25.0.11

09-10-2024

Features

• Updated Licensing to version: 18.4.2.
  The product can now be easily activated on new workstations via a single customer key - together with all other coolOrange products in your subscription.

• powerEvents for Vault 2025 now supports .NET 8 applications, allowing cmdlets and client customizations to also be loaded in .NET (core) applications like PowerShell 7 and Inventor 2025

General

• Added support for Vault and Inventor 2025

• The Windows Start Menu now contains the coolOrange-wide Licence Manager instead of the powerEvents License Information shortcut

• Shared third-party Libraries (e.g. log4net) are no longer installed into the GAC but are now merged to avoid conflicts with other products and plugins

• Introduced a new product icon that’s simpler and easy to recognize within our product portfolio

• Changed color for WARN log messages in Console to make them easier to read

Possible Breaking Changes with Inventor 2025

Generally, no breaking changes are expected with upgrades from previous versions.

However, in rare cases, client customizations for CAD applications such as Inventor may not work with Inventor 2025!
In that case, you’ll need to adjust these customization scripts to ensure compatibility with PowerShell 7.
