v0.14.3

This patch release implements a force destroy feature, with the goal of disbanding a running environment even if its state doesn't allow further transitions because of an unresponsive task.

• Environment force destroy:
  • [coconut] add force flag in environment destroy
  • [core] protos add force option in DestroyEnvironmentRequest
  • [core] handle force destroy request
  • [executor] add timeout to OCC transition
  • [executor] set timeout to 15s for OCC transition

Nota bene as of v0.14.2: if you have a habit of running the AliECS core with --veryVerbose, your debut output will suddenly become noisier, including repetitive periodic output. InfoLogger is not affected by this change. It is safe to drop the --veryVerbose flag to suppress this new output if you're not debugging specific core internals.

v0.14.2

This patch release fixes an issue which could cause incomplete channel configuration to be pushed in some situations. It also includes a performance improvement in the executor when launching tasks, and other minor fixes.

• Executor performance:

  • [executor] Make task launch asynchronous

• Channel configuration:

  • [core] Fix template processing of channel targets

• Miscellaneous:

  • [core] Enable TRACE level logging if --veryVerbose
  • [occ] Make deserialization of transition requests more robust
