FEATURE	101045	Authoring: Add a "Top Matches" section for BL type ahead menu showing items that start with what the user has typed in	• Since the language rule typeahead menu now shows any matching items that contain the text already typed (instead of starting with the text), there is now a Top Matches section which shows the most likely choices
FEATURE	101108	Execution: Get Entity State in JSON format	• When working with the irServer REST endpoint, JSON format may be used instead of a mixture of JSON and XML
FEATURE	101110	Authoring: Add ability to generate entities and fields by inferring schema from sample of JSON	• You can select a JSON file or paste a JSON snippet into irAuthor, and it will generate entities, fields and relationships based on inferring the schema from the JSON.

FEATURE	101470	Provide option to compile Catalog rule applications on a background thread	• When a rule application is pulled from the catalog, it is cached on the client. If the compiled rule application is still in the client cache and within the refresh interval when a new RuleSession is created with the CatalogRuleApplicationReference, the cached rule application is used. If the refresh interval has expired, InRule performs a lightweight polling operation to the Catalog to see if a newer version is available. If a new version is available, the latest revision is downloaded, compiled and cached. By default, the polling and recompilation will be performed on the main thread. This feature provides a new configuration option to enable changing the default behavior and to poll and compile on a background thread. With this setting, the previous version will continue to be available for execution until the new version has finished compiling.

FEATURE	102284	Authoring: Create a new value list in Business Language based on a subset of values from an existing value list	• For example, you may pass a subset of values into a UDF.
FEATURE	102285	Authoring: Create a brand new value list in BL (inline)	• You are now able to create a new value list in Business Language inline allowing you to create a value list that can be passed into a UDF without having a pre-defined value list.
FEATURE	102286	Authoring: In the vocabulary template dialogs the placeholders reflect what was selected in the placeholder dialog	• The placeholder grid data type names match the names in the placeholder dialog.

FEATURE	103324	Installation: irX for Microsoft Dynamics CRM now installs as an InRule feature	• For upgrades, if a user already has irX installed, after the upgrade their Add Remove Programs listing will only show a single "InRule" entry, but irX will remain installed as a feature under the new merged installer.
FEATURE	103427	REST Operation support for explicit rule sets with parameter(s)	• REST calls can now be made to explicit RuleSets with required parameters. Previously, REST operations could only call explicit RuleSets without parameters.

These details include the available operations of the service and help provide confirmation that the service is installed and responsive.
FEATURE	103525	Add Info Level Logging for assemblies loaded via Repository, RunTime and irAuthor	• When clients were unable to connect to an Oracle client (often times due to version mismatch), it was difficult to troubleshoot.

FEATURE	103684	.NET Assembly Import: Add options to control creation of value lists and constraints for enumerations	• Previously, any .NET assembly imported with enumerations automatically created both value lists and constraints for those enumerations. With this feature, 2 settings have been added to allow the creation of value lists and constraints to be controlled. The new options are "Bind Enum fields/properties to Value Lists" and "Create Constraints for Enum fields/properties". NOTE: These option additions require a rule application schema upgrade.

FEATURE	104578	Update the default setting to "False" for including aggregate statistics in the Catalog response SOAP header	• The enableRepositoryServiceAggrStats parameter specifies if aggregate statistics shall be included in the SOAP header for all Catalog responses.

FEATURE	104677	Catalog group names should not be editable	• Catalog groups are only visible when using Active Directory (SSO). To prevent naming conflicts, the name will come from Active Directory when the group is added via irCatalog Manager. Once added, the group name will not be editable.
