Java issue with dictionaries?

I'm getting the following error every time I run a saved analysis job after closing and reopening DataCleaner 2.0.2. To fix it, I had to "edit" each of my dictionaries and click on "save dictionary". An idea how to fix this?

Thanks,

George

Hi George,

Thanks for noticing this and telling us about it. I just checked what was going on and I'm afraid you've discovered a bug for us here. For now I can only say that you have the right workaround, although it might be a bit ackward: To edit and save the dictionary.

I've posted a an issue with the highest priority, so it is definately something that we will look into fixing for the next release.

But thank you for posting, that's very valuable!

Hi Kasper,

I see that this issue is closed! Just want to know when is the next release coming out. Sorry I don't mean to sound pushy, it's just that I'm using DataCleaner for a system migration and I think that bug is affecting some of my larger dataset's check.

Alternatively is there a quick fix I can use to just fix that error (like changing the code)? I really appreciate your help and would love to help out with documentation after my project is done.

Thank you,

George

Hi George,

I understand how you feel and I also believe in short release cycles so that we don't hold anything from the users that is already done!

I expect a release in the beginning of next week. Currently only some finalizing checks and release announcements is to be done.
