Documentation Update

Product:   Comet2006Workstation362.exe BETA

Version:   Comet 2006 Build 362

Date:      October 28, 2005

1.	Comet can now be installed to run as a service.

2.	Corrected a problem that could have crashed Comet if you got an error on an
	ACTIVATE and an error handler was coded (ie ERRORTO or EXCP=).

3.	Comet will no longer attempt to start if a connection to any of the configured
	file servers fails.
	
4.	Corrected a problem that could have resulted in negative user counts in the file
	server dialog if an old version of CFAM attempted to connect.
	
5.	REWRITE to an extended keyed file now always returns E32 if the record does not
	already exist.
	
6.	Background partitions can no longer perform DAB accesses. This was part of a move
	to enhance security. An access statement executed in background will result in E37 --
	CAN'T PERFORM GIVEN ACTION -- NO PERMISSION GRANTED.  If you wish a background
	partition to have access to particular DABs, just access them before the activate,
	and those DABs will be copied to the target partition before the program is launched.


Changes in previous releases: Build 361 1. Corrected a problem with the suppression of the initial formfeed for :RAW printers. 2. Corrected the way COSP determined the location of COSW.INI which could cause the wrong fonts to get loaded. 3. CFAM will no longer crash if one or more servers was unavailable due to error. 4. A problem that was introduced in .360 that set TERM$ for all background partitions to "T00" has been corrected. TERM$ for background partition is now always blank. 5. The WinSock gateway is now much faster. A system-enforced pause of 5 seconds was able to be reduced to 1 tick. This will definitely speed up your WinSock applications such as sending email from Comet. 6. Now you can develop and test XAP applications before you buy the license. You are restricted to talking only to the local host at 127.0.0.1. Build 360 1. New IB statements for use with the Multi-keyed File System for CFAM: CreateKey FileName, KeyName, KeyLength, KeyPosition, Dir=DirectoryName, [excp=exception address] Open (LUN) FileName, Key=KeyName[, Dir=DirectoryName][, excp=exception address] KeyStatInfo$ = KeyStat (LUN) I0XNumber[, excp=exception address] For more information, refer to the IB manual which is once again available online: IB Manual 2. The FileList utility in Comet Explorer has been enhanced to support multi-keyed files. The multi-keyed file system requires CFAM and CometServe0509 or higher.
