VT Trader Release Notes 1.8.3

- Quality of Service Statistic Submission Service (QS3) Implemented; VT Trader now includes additional intuitive error reporting without user assistance. The QS3 service is an extension of the TalkBack Service previously implemented in VT Trader 1.8.1. This feature is enabled by default. How it works: Each time VT Trader generates an entry in its log files, this information is sent back to a listening server in your broker's network the next time you login to VT Trader. The information gathered by the QS3 service will allow more sophisticated tracking and reporting of connectivity issues.
- Acknowledge-Mode Messaging Implemented; This is a server-side feature that while enabled allows VT Trader to be a lot less aggressive about initiating passive reconnect attempts. More specifically, a messaging timeout is no longer an indication of poor connectivity; Only a HTTP 401 response will now initiate a passive reconnect attempt in VT Trader.
Feature Improvements:
- Improve Connection Lost Detection; A poor connection warning is now detected immediately following the first HTTP error resulting in yellow connectivity LED's; Full connectivity loss is detected following the second HTTP error resulting in red connectivity LED's along with passive reconnection followed by a full re-login attempt if necessary (and auto-login option enabled).
- Include Request ID in all HTTP Requests.
- Short-Timeout for Version File Request / Version File Cache and Expiration; The current timeout value was too long. This lengthy wait was unnecessary and frustrating for users. Shortening the timeout may cause VT Trader to timeout more often, but it will be much more responsive to the user.
- Thread priority changes to allow the SSL libraries additional time to process connection status and messages
