Bug fixes
List of fixes included in Lucent Sky AVM 3.7
Scanning Java applications
When scanning a Java application, the alternative Java compiler will be used instead of the primary one. This bug might cause scan to fail on a very small number of Java applications due to compilation failures.
This issue has been resolved in Lucent Sky AVM 3.7.
Known issues of Lucent Sky AVM 3.7
Viewing other users scan results as an administrator
When you signed in as a member of the Administrators group, you cannot view the scan results of an application that you are not the owner nor a member (or a member of a group) of the application.
To workaround this issue, make the Administrators group a member of the application.
This issue is present in Lucent Sky AVM 3.0 to 3.7 and has been resolved in Lucent Sky AVM 3.8.
Batch editing multiple applications
Changes made using batch edit function to edit settings of multiple applications are not saved, if the applications you attempt to edit were created on Lucent Sky AVM 3.5.
To workaround this issue, edit these applications individually.
This issue is present in Lucent Sky AVM 3.5 to 3.7 and has been resolved in Lucent Sky AVM 3.8.
