Comet.exe to give it a try! It requires REL 9.07 or higher and UTL 9.07 or higher.
Comet16
1. Connecting to certain addresses via the winsock gateway could have caused Cosh to crash.
This has been corrected.
2. Introduced a spool alias for the spool section of the Comet.ini file. See below for details.
Comet32
1. The size of the task buffer for mySQL has been increased to 64K.
2. Introduced a spool alias for the spool section of the Comet.ini file:
[SPOOLERS]
Spool = SP1,$(lac);
...
[PRINTERS]
Printer = Lac,p ,x,SPL:adobe ,Adobe PDF;
This makes it possible to configure a printer called SP1. Previously all printer names needed
to begin with "L". If your programs open "SP1" this makes it possible for them to be used with
DocMgr without needing to recode them.
Changes in previous releases:
Build 411
Comet32
1. Restored the functionality of dynamic ACCESSes which was broken in version .410.
2. Corrected a problem handling TERM$ values above T99.
3. The NUM function now handles ROUNDed variables correctly.
4. Trailing printer controls such as (FF) and (LF) were not getting processed.
Build 410
Due to a production problem the .409 release didn't include all of the changes required for
the CFAM correction. A symptom of this problem is that .409 CometAnywhere clients were not able
to connect to CometLib. This has been corrected.
COSW.INI
1. Older versions of Comet would store the COSW.INI file in the windows folder. Newer versions
of Windows do not allow writing to files in that folder without Administrator privileges.
Starting with Comet version 410, COSW now looks in Documents&Settings/All Users for the INI
file and if not found, but found in the Windows folder, COSW will copy it into the All Users
folder.
Build 409
CFAM
1. In a terminal services / remote desktop environment it was possible that a user's CosC
could have connected to another user's CFAM. This has been corrected.
2. Dynamically accessed dabs weren't being seen by CometLib. This has been corrected.
COSW.INI
1. If the CosW.ini file does not exist yet it will now be set up to use Windows colors.
ODBC
1. Added an option to hide the odbcdrv.exe message window.
Build 408
CosP
1. New image library installed to better handle the lossy jpg format for print images.
Build 407
mySQL
1. This is the first release of the mySQL driver. For more information read the
wiki doc and check out the sample programs.
CosW
1. Corrected a problem in CopyFile. The file would not get copied if CopyFile needed to
create a dir alias folder on the client.
Build 406
First beta release of Comet 2010.
