Product: REL Directory
Version: 08.03
Date: July 7, 2008
1. SYSGEN
Corrected a problem that could have caused "Invalid Character Translation" table
to get errors when none should have been reported.
2. XAPMON
Now closes the lun (12) it uses for the gateway before it does its OPEN. Previously
an error would have occurred if the calling program had that lun open.
Now erases all of the files in the cos\temp dir. Previously some files were being
skipped when they should have been erased.
3. QSPOOL
The browser viewer program now transfers the generated .htm file to the client for
all users not just CA clients.
Changes in previous releases:
8.02
1. CMONITOR
Changes required by Comet version .389 so that CometExplorer by be used even if you're
not using the standard security QMONITOR.
8.01
1. QSPOOL
Corrected a problem that was causing a long delay before printing jobs in forever mode.
8.00
1. HtmlPtr
Now properly displays the Comet version in the browser title line.
2. EmailPtr
Corrected a problem that was truncating the first letter of the "from" address
when responding to the prompt for missing information.
Now closes LUN 52 before opening the log file on it. Previously, if the program
printing to the email printer had a file opened on LUN 52, Emailptr would get E34.
Corrected a problem introduced in version 7.06 that prevented html email printers
from working properly. HTML text was left visible in the email body.
Added a msgbox for error 10 (tcp/ip timeout) so that it can now optionally be
ignored.
3. QSPOOL
Corrected the detection of ? printer in test for E30 which will be issued if
the user clicks CANCEL on the popup printer dialog.
Corrected a problem that could have resulted in E11 if no #PTR is found.
4. QMONITOR
Hyperlink to the original Data Express has been removed. This program can still
be run either by running DBX or #37 on the QTILITY menu.
7.07
1. XAPMON
Some temporary files weren't getting erased. This has been corrected.
It now creates a file with a 2 digit filename in cos/temp whose name is the
xap id. That number is incremented each time comet is started and xapmon is
run. It is important that any outside code that erases files in the cos/temp
folder be eliminated.
2. EmailPtr
Corrected a problem with the cc and bcc mnemonics.
3. QSPOOL
QSPOOL2 no longer uses internal queue for Windows printers (goes along with QSPOOL
change in 7.06).
7.06
1. QMONITOR
COMMON is now cleared before running CMONITOR so "B" (BYE) works properly if a program
called "B" exists on the system.
2. EmailPtr
Added attachments and return receipt capabilities.
Five new mnemonics were added: (User=user$), (Password=pwd$), (Time=GMToffset$),
(Attachment=file$), and (RR=rtnaddr$).
Updated Email Printer Doc
3. QSPOOL
Corrected a problem that prevented "View" from launching the html file if the pathname
of the file contained blank characters.
Removed the unspool queue logic since the Windows spooler should take over if the printer
is busy.
7.05
1. CMONITOR and QMONITOR
In support of the LockDabs statement introduced in .381, changes were made to unlock
the dabs so that QMONITOR can process the accesses required for the user's password.
2. EmailPtr
Email addresses sent to the smtp server will strip out any name information that is
not part of the actual email address. This was done because it was discovered that
Microsoft Exchange Server doesn't like anything other than the simple email address.
7.04
1. MTB50
A new mnemonic, (GetSystemTime=FormatString) has been introduced. It returns
the system date and time in one of many formats depending on the FormatString
supplied as the parameter. When issued to LUN 0 (the terminal) it returns the
information for the client computer. When issued to a LUN where the system
device "X00" has been opened, it returns the information for the server. Use
of this mnemonic requires Comet version .380 or higher. Refer to the IB
documentation for information on the possible values of the
FormatString.
7.03
1. XAPMON
If no LISTEN command is specified in #XAP it will listen on port 80 by default.
2. CMONITOR
DSTAT of the clock has been moved later in the startup process so that it will
reflect the correct date and time. Previously, it would indicate the date
that the session was started rather than the date the user actually logged in.
7.02
1. EmailPtr
Now properly handles the EHLO command.
No longer hangs if running in background and a msgbox or dialog was trying to display
Added "cycle" option to logfile that will archive up to 7 iterations of the log.
New syntax for the log statement in the email.ini is:
log = logfile,logdir[,erase | ,cycle]
2. XAPMON
Changes made to the way the eCometContext files are managed to prevent a situation
where a user might inherit another user's COMMON data. This change requires
Comet .378 or higher.
";" may now be used as a comment character in #XAP
Added "erase" or "cycle" option to archive up to 7 iterations of the log. New syntax
for the log statement in #XAP is:
logfile pathname[,cycle | ,erase}
3. QENDITOR
XAP errors will now go to the xap logfile if there is one rather than to the browser.
This change requires Comet .378 or higher.
7.01
1. Added IB32 file for use with CosM32, the Comet32 IB compiler.
