Finally, I had some free time available to be able to update and fix some minor bugs that existed in the latest version of this adapter and had already been reported by community members.
I have to give a special thanks to Maakku (Codeplex user), who reported a problem related to the Daily schedule properties… and the respective solution!!
📝 One-Minute Brief
This post announces a minor but important update to the BizTalk Scheduled Task Adapter for BizTalk Server 2010. The update focuses on stability and includes fixes for task execution persistence and minor UI refinements in the adapter configuration. This community-driven tool remains a vital solution for triggering BizTalk receive locations at specific intervals without the need for external triggers.
So today, a published a minor release of BizTalk Scheduled Task Adapter is available for download on GitHub: BizTalk Scheduled Task Adapter v4.0
NOTE: the adapter is still in version 4.0, I have not modified the version. As I said earlier this is a minor release to solve small bugs.
List of improvements in this minor release:
- Daily schedule review. Solved a small bug on Daily Properties: settings were not saved correctly when configuring the daily schedule in the admin console.
- Support for 32 and 64-bit Host Instances.
- Fix the version number of the adapter that was being recorded incorrectly as 3.0.0. After installing the adapter, in Programs and Features, the version for the BizTalk Scheduled Task Adapter was 3.0.0.
Note: The adapter was tested with success running in 32 and 64 bit Host Instances!
