1 August 2024

Additional validation for X12 HL segments: parent-child relationships, sequential segments, and correct parent references. This validation can be turned off by setting X12ValidationSettings.DisableHLSegmentValidation = true.
HIPAA 5010 SNIP 3 validation for messages 820, 835, 837D, 837I, and 837P. This validation is on the templates and can be configured by amending the code in the templates that implement IEdiValidator. To use this validation, set the X12ValidationSettings.ValidationLevel to either Balancing_SNIP3 or InterSegment_SNIP4. Requires the replacement of all templates in HIPAA 5010 for 820, 835, 837D, 837I, and 837P.
IEdiValidator can now be applied to the root message level in templates; for example, for HIPAA 5010 820: public class TS820 : EdiMessage, IEdiValidator.
Fixed an issue with sequence validation in ENT segments in HIPAA 5010 835. Requires the replacement of template HIPAA 5010 835.

4 January 2021

This is a major update and includes breaking changes. It decommissions the four packages EdiFabric.Framework, EdiFabric.Core, EdiFabric.Plugins.Ack.X12, and EdiFabric.Plugins.Ack.Edifact. A single new package, EdiFabric, replaces the decommissioned ones. The new package, EdiFabric, only works with a valid serial key.

Merged all packages/assemblies into a single package, EdiFabric. All namespaces remain the same and to migrate to the new EdiFabric package, uninstall any occurrences of the old packages and install the new, EdiFabric, package instead.
Multiple performance improvements.
Bugfix for validating X12 DTP date ranges.
Changed Separators for easier manipulation. To change a delimiter for X12, you'd do:
```
var separators = Separators.X12;
 separators.Segment = '|';
```
The new version requires a serial key to be applied programmatically:
```
EdiFabric.SerialKey.Set("Valid Serial Key");
```
Introduced ClearCache() method for EdiMessage to ensure better performance when saving to DB. Example here.

22 May 2020

Several discrepancies were identified between the EDI codes in our templates and the X12 guidelines. The following templates were updated:
EdiNation.X12.HIPAA.005010
EdiNation.X12.HIPAA.005010. Base

Some segment/composite references will be changed in the 2400s loops, and the SVD and HI segments. Loop names replace the trigger segment name across all transactions.

05 May 2020

Loop_2300_2 was renamed to Loop_2300 in HIPAA 5010 templates for 837P, 837I, and 837D
Extended SegmentAttribute for VDA and flat files to allow padding character and direction on a segment level. The data element padding character and direction supersede that on the segment level if any.
Amended all VDA templates to reflect the change in the previous point.
Added support for empty EDI codes. Data elements with empty EDI codes are validated as alphanumerics.
```
[EdiCodes("")]
public class X12_ID_73
```
Added support for partition EDI codes. This allows each code from the first partition to be used alone as well as in combination with any code from the second partition.
```
[EdiCodes(",N,R,", ",2,3,")]
public class X12_ID_102
```
Added Ta1AfterTrailer boolean flag, which forces a TA1 to be generated at the end of the interchange. TA1 is always generated right after the ISA when the ISA is invalid. Enabling this flag will raise 2 TA1s in case the ISA is invalid.
Reader's BytesRead property was changed to display the expected bytes read because some bytes could be read multiple times when probing for the start of a new interchange.8. InstanceContext was brought back to ValidationAttribute.

06 December 2019

This release introduces breaking changes for all HIPAA and EANCOM templates. Core functionality requires System.Runtime.Caching, which needs to be referenced in both .NET Framework and .NET Core projects.

Added .NET target for .NET Core 3
Reading and writing logic were partially rewritten to achieve better performance. 3 times faster reads for example by utilizing System.Runtime.Caching.
Brand new FlatFile reader and writer. This allows you to process almost any flat file such as CSV, VDA, etc. using the familiar templates, attributes and validation.
The templates for HIPAA were completely reworked to better match the guidelines. 5010 templates had several classes\properties renamed. 4010 were reworked to match the structure of 5010.
Introduced message deep copy. This allows you to automatically create a full copy of any transaction object.
The splitting functionality had been rewritten to improve performance ~10 times.
The HIPAA Entity Framework models have been rewritten for better performance.
Added async validation for transactions.

Splitting was changed to allow the same template to be used for both splitting and no splitting. Splitting must be enabled using both the [Splitter] attribute and enabled in ValidationSettings.
New reader mode for when the templates are in the same project - no need to specify the assembly.

Added extra parameter to ValidationSettings:

public Dictionary<Type, Type> DataElementTypeMap { get; set; }

which allows to dynamically overload the EDI Codes to be used for validation:

List<IEdiItem> ediItems;
Dictionary<Type, Type> codeSetMap = new Dictionary<Type, Type>();
codeSetMap.Add(typeof(X12_ID_128), typeof(X12_ID_128_Amended));
codeSetMap.Add(typeof(X12_ID_98), typeof(X12_ID_98_Amended));

using (var ediReader = new X12Reader(ediStream, TypeFactory))
{
    ediItems = ediReader.ReadToEnd().ToList();
}

foreach (var t in ediItems.OfType<EdiMessage>())
{
    MessageErrorContext mec;
    var isValid = t.IsValid(out mec, new ValidationSettings { 
        DataElementTypeMap = codeSetMap }));
}

EDI translator can now read transactions without any envelopes or trailers, e.g. beginning with ST or UNH only, and no SE, UNT, ISA, GS, IEA, GE, UNB, UNG, UNZ or UNE.
Added interfaces to all EDIFACT templates for segments and complex data elements.

Moved all IsValid() parameters to a new class, ValidationSettings.
Changed IControlSegment interface to ControlSegment abstract class.
Reworked the splitting logic to allow:
- splitting on any loop at any level (not just the loops at the top level)
- all parts retain the parsed segments that are outside the loop being split by
VDA validation bug fixes.
GS time bug fix to allow 8 length time format.
Templates marked for splitting can now be used for both splitting and no splitting by setting a DiscardSplit flag in ReaderSettings.
Added Template property to EdiMessage.

Added validation for empty\blank data elements annotated with the following attributes: StringLength, DataElement, Required.
Data elements initialized with empty strings will now be treated as containing data and will be considered invalid if:
- are marked with Required, a mandatory data element can't be empty\blank
- are marked with StringLength and min length is greater than 1
- are marked with DataElement and the data type does not allow empty\blank, such as date, numeric, or alphanumeric when a syntax set is used

The generation of group and interchange trailers is now configurable when writing. By default, all trailers are written automatically.
Added async read and async write for Edifact, X12, and Vda.
Added VDA validation by IsValid method of EdiMessage. Does not validate structure, e.g. matching number of segments and control numbers.
Control segments (ISA, UNB, etc) can be converted to a string with ToEdi.
All control segments (ISA, UNB, etc) are attributed with DataContract and MemberContract to improve XML serialization using DataContractSerializer.

Allows custom properties in the templates, that are not used as part of the parsing. Sample usage is to have a database ID. All non-parsing related properties should not be annotated with Pos attribute.
Support for inheritance in the template classes. A sample usage would be to have a base segment class, containing some properties, and then new segment classes inheriting from the base, having different validation attributes for the same property.
Ability to override properties in the base class - related to the previous. If a base class and a derived class both have a property annotated with the same position, e.g. Pos(3), the property in the derived class will override that in the base class.
Multiple performance improvements to the splitting functionality. The parsing speed when splitting is now comparable to that without splitting.
