NOTE: the following notes are excerpted from the main ash##notes.txt file, focusing just on items with relevance to ATE. Please see the A-Shell Release Notes or the A-Shell Reference for details about specific items. ATE Release 6.5.1728.2 March, 2023 ============================================================================ ATE Release 6.5.1727.0 March, 2023 ============================================================================ - XTREE bug fix: property sheets were displaying with an extra row and column (introduced in 1723.4). - XTREE bug fix: the XTR.XVALIDATE flag was not being properly set on a LISTX cell when clicking on some internal part of the tree. Problem was introduced in 6.5.1723.3. - XTREE bug fix: the Advanced Coldef Option Fastmax=1 was not working properly with combos. ATE Release 6.5.1726.0 February, 2023 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement: new member FILTERED added to XTRCTL structure to indicate when the grid has been filtered. - XTREE bug fix: processing a filter was re-enabling the filter buttons on all the eligible columns, rather than leaving them in the current state. - XTREE bug fix: checkboxes and radiobuttons were not toggling properly (problem introduced in 1724.2). - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(270) bug fix: Literal "^M" wasn't working within cells using cell-level HTML-style formatting. - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(271-273): SetGroup now retains the individual column formats for the group summary while adding bold. Previously the summary lines were bold but otherwise used the General format. - PDFX/ATE bug fix: When printing through ATE using one of the //PDFX,Save directives that specifies only a directory (therefore using the original source filename), the resulting filename was getting a -# suffix appended even when the WhenExists directive was not set to AutoNumber. (This was a side effect of ATE saving printed files in its cache directory with -# suffixes to make them unique, which is why it only affected ATE printing.) ATE Release 6.5.1725.0 February, 2023 ============================================================================ - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(269) refinement: Extend limit on individual //XL parameters from 256 to 512 characters. (This was mainly an issue for footnotes and possibly banners, which can get quite lengthy.) - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(268) enhancement: A literal "^m" inside a data field now makes the expected adjustments to the spreadsheet configuration (activating the wrap option and increasing the row height). Note that this was previously supported in the column headers only. - XTREE refinement: When exporting to XLSX, embedded CRLF's (ASCII 13 plus ASCII 10) are now exported as "^m". Requires CSV2XL 2.1(268) to be effective. - XTREE bug fix: certain combinations of context menu options (mixing both explicit PopupMenu and implicit options) were resulting in an off-by-one error between the option selected by the user and the option performed by XTREE. - Add context menu option to system message window to send ^C to the application, primarily as an aid to developers who may face the need to abort in awkward situations during testing. Unlike hitting ^C on the keyboard, this method bypasses restrictions on the keyboard mode (i.e. locked or local mode only). In the ATE case, it also discards any currently queued output, allowing the effect of the ^C to be seen more rapidly in the output. See ash65notes.txt for more details. - XTREE bug fix: when exporting to XLSX format, columns containing ##:## (e.g. HH:MM or MM:SS) were ending up blank in the Excel worksheet. Problem was actually in CSV2XL.SBX (used by XTREE for the export). Fix is in CSV2XL.SBX version 2.1(267). ATE Release 6.5.1724.0 January, 2023 ============================================================================ - Several XTREE autofilter refinements: -- If autofiltering is enabled globally via the OPTIONS=XTAUTOFILTER directive in the miame.ini, but not set explicitly for the current tree (via the XTF2_AUTOFILTER flag), then the initial state of the filter buttons will be hidden, but can be activated (made visible) via the context menu. This is intended to make it easier to enable autofilter globally without having to worry about the overcrowding of narrow column headers or general clutter caused by the filter buttons in trees where filtering may not be important. -- Close a small GPF loophole related to filtering -- Add a new Advanced Coldef Option (FilterInitialState=Disable) which can be used to hide the filter button from specific columns (or the entire tree if added to the zero column definition), while still allowing it to be activated via the context menu. -- Add a new option to the context menu to toggle the filter button for just the current column. -- Fix problem of filter buttons failing to respond if the column had already been selected. -- Vastly improve (10-50X) the speed of filtering operations. - PDFX bug fix: landscape orientation was not working properly in the PDF-XChange standard driver. - XTREE bug fix related to cell editing validation in property sheets. (Problem was introduced in 6.5.1715) - XTREE bug fix: close an obscure loophole in which re-entry into a sortable tree might lose its internal row index (and quickly go off the rails). ATE Release 6.5.1723.0 December, 2022 ============================================================================ - PRTXLS.SBX 2.1(221) license update to support LibXL 4.0.3.x - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(266) license update to support LibXL 4.0.3.x - ASHNET.DLL 1.4(188) update resolves various issues: - Office365 TLS negotiation - FTP2 TLS negotiation and wildcard operations. - FTP2 session reuse error with FileZilla Server v1.3 - FTP2 (SFTP) support added for ecdsa-sha2-nistp521 and -nist384 algorithms - OAUTH2 refinement for Microsoft endpoints to fix browser caching. - XTREE bug fix: in rare cases, clicking on the autofilter button was causing the tree to appear to be locked up due to the filter dialog being off screen. ATE Release 6.5.1722.0 November, 2022 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement - support ImgDflt - XTREE bug fix - duplicate images were not always sharing the same resources, leading to excess memory use. ATE Release 6.5.1721.6 October, 2022 ============================================================================ - Minor refinement to XTREE tracing - Rebuild with built with the latest version of the Windows 10.0 SDK and platform toolset v143 (up from v141). - ASHNET.DLL library bug fix (1.4.185) - fix XHTTPF_SSL_xxx symbol handling (broken in 1.4.184). - ASHNET.DLL enhanements (1.4.186) - - The certpw parameter to HTTP.SBR now supports all three of the encryption modes supported by MX_PWCRYPT. Previously it only recognized modes 1 and 2. Note that for mode 3, it assumes the default seed and key. - CRYPTO.SBR encryption/decryption using RSA public/private keys now supports additional file formats beyond PEM: XML, JWK, DER (PKCS1 or PKCS8, raw or base64 encoded). If a password is required, specify it in the aad (additional authentication data) parameter and set the prior unused params to "" or 0 according to their types. ATE Release 6.5.1721.0 September, 2022 ============================================================================ - PDFX Email bug fixes and refinements. See ash65notes for details. - XTREE / PDFX bug fix: Printing to PDFX from the XTREE Print Preview window was acting as if PDFX was not licensed (showing the watermarks). Note that within this print preview window, you have to select the PDFX printer Which contains "A-Shell" in the name; the regular PDF-XChange Standard will not work. - PDFX bug fix: when generating multiple emails within the same session using Method 5 or Method 6 (relying on the default email client via the MAPI interface), in some scenarios it was failing to update the file attachment (i.e. was attaching the previously generated file to the next email.) - Windows GUI refinement: revise the refresh logic when dialogs are maximized or normalized in attempt to close timing loophole in which one or more controls within the dialog would not get completely resized. - XTREE splitter bug fix: the LEFTPANEWIDTH = -2 option (introduced in 6.5.1720.0) was getting confused by some combinations of attributes. ATE Release 6.5.1720.0 August, 2022 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement: The ImgDir Advanced Coldef Directive can now be used to specify the name of a DLL containing icons, allowing just the icon name to be specified in each cell. Note that to indicate that the ImgDir value is a DLL name, it must be preceded with "::", for example: ImgDir=::ASHICO1 The individual cells can then contain just the icon name. - XTREE refinement: As an alternative/workaround to the splitter position optimization logic built in to the control (for split-pane configurations), which does not always work properly, you can now set XTR.LEFTPANEWIDTH = -2 to force A-Shell to use it's own manual width calculation. (The manual method is less precise and slower than the logic built in to the control, but less likely to be completely wrong.) - ATE bug fix: close a loophole in which two ATE sessions originating from same PC to same server might end up with the same instance identifier (resulting in one job clobbering the other). ATE Release 6.5.1719.0 August, 2022 ============================================================================ - AUI dialog bug fix: the "X" button in the upper right corner of dialogs had stopped working in 1717.11. - XTREE bug fix: saved font scale values were not being respected (broken in 1715.8) - PDFX bug fix: string values in some //PDFX directives were not working properly if they started with a numeric digit, e.g. an embedded font named "3 of 9 Barcode". - AUI image handling refinement: the file extension .JPEG is now treated as equivalent to .JPG. (Previously only .JPG was recognized.) ATE Release 6.5.1718.0 August, 2022 ============================================================================ - AUI refinement: when a dialog is created with MBST_CENTER option (center dialog on parent), if the parent is minimized, the dialog gets centered on the current desktop instead. Previously it was ending up stuck in one of the corners. - Eliminate stack overflow error after 2000+ AG_FUNCx calls in succession. - ASHNET library update to 1.4.184 - see ash65notes for details. ATE Release 6.5.1717.6 June, 2022 ============================================================================ - XTREE fix: sort order when removing a filter was in some cases reversing - ASHNET.DLL updated to version 183 - Remove a spurious "XTREE Diff Unpack" trace message from the ashlog. ATE Release 6.5.1717.0 May, 2022 ============================================================================ - AXL upgrade library version from 3.9.4.3 to 4.0.3.1. (Many internal bug fixes and new functions exposed.) - XTREE refinement: more flexible/robust support for data passed as a blob. - XTREE bug fix: checkbox style of AutoFilter was confusing individual data elements of the form "AA-BBB..." with a range (from AA to BBB...). - XTREE bug fix: exiting from an editable cell with validation enabled was in some cases requiring an extra click. ATE Release 6.5.1716.0 May, 2022 ============================================================================ - SQL connector version migration (see ash65notes for details) ATE Release 6.5.1715.9 May, 2022 ============================================================================ - AUI refinement: dialog coordinates now revert to design coordinates if the design coordinates or resolution has changed. - XTREE refinement: saved column information now ignored if the column design has changed. - XTREE bug fix: multi-checkbox toggle (SHIFT-CLICK) broken in 1715.0 now restored. - XTREE local validation refinements ATE Release 6.5.1715.0 April, 2022 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement: support for local validation SBX routines. ATE Release 6.5.1714.0 April, 2022 ============================================================================ - JOBTBL corruption fix for environments where A-Shell/Windows and ATE are running with same configuration. - XTREE refinement: ASCII sort (A) now takes precedence over number (#) - AUI_CONTROL bug fix: the centering option was interfering with restoring the user's saved dialog coordinates. ATE Release 6.5.1713.0 March, 2022 ============================================================================ - XTREE bug fix: multi-column sorts specified interactively were not being saved correctly by the XTR'USRCFG feature. - XTREE bug fix: initial sort was being ignored on certain re-entry combinations (editable and reselect). - XTREE enhancement: new PopupMenu command $SORT - XTREE bug fix: some display features (particularly row headers) were interfering with the saved column widths. ATE Release 6.5.1712.0 February, 2022 ============================================================================ ATE Release 6.5.1711.0 February, 2022 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement: the built-in export to spreadsheet function now supports the footers if XTR'SHOWFOOTER-1. Also, when exporting in the full XLSX mode (see SBR=XTREE_EXPCSV2XLSX), if the Advanced Coldef Parameter Title is defined, it will be used as a banner. The special macro tokens (e.g. %date%) ARE supported but %page% and %total% (which don't make any sense in the banner of a spreadsheet) are just converted to blanks, as are the justification separators (|). - INFLD refinement: when an entry fails one of the internal validations that display an "Invalid..." message (e.g. value not listed in SETDEF, invalid date format, etc.), the field is now cleared before it regains the focus. (This makes it less likely for casual users to get stuck in an apparent loop.) - XTREE bug fix: eliminate a limitation that prevented more than one XTREE control at a time from containing a date picker control. - XTREE refinement: increase the threshhold for switching to the larger "+" and "-" MLVL buttons (see 6.5.1706) for standard 96 dpi (non -dpm) mode. - PDFX printer selection refinement: the printer matching algorithm, which normally accepts the first left-anchored partial match between the specified DEVICE name in the printer initialization file and the printer name in the Windows printer list, now favors PDF-Xchange Standard over earlier versions when there are multiple possible matches. As always, you can eliminate uncertainty by specifying the complete name in the DEVICE statement. ATE Release 6.5.1710.0 December, 2021 ============================================================================ - PDFX support updated from version 5 (PDX-XChange Printer 2012) to version 9 (PDF-XChange Standard). Note: you must install the PDF-XChange Standard driver, as the 2012 version is no longer compatible. (The PDF-XChange 3.0 driver however remains compatible, although deprecated.) - MX_MAPI bug fix: Resolve issue causing failure the ATE Print Screen utility email function to fail under Windows 10+. - ASHNET.DLL 1.14.177 enhancements: > FTP2TIMEOUT now affects SFTP as well as FTP2. > XFTPF_RMVEXT (&h0200) now works for FTP2.SBR (SFTP mode only) as it does in FTPDLX. ATE Release 6.5.1709.0 November, 2021 ============================================================================ - XTREE Auto-Filter refinement: specifying Filter=NONE on a zero-width column now sets the default for subsequent real columns. ATE Release 6.5.1708.0 October, 2021 =========================================================================== ATE Release 6.5.1707.0 October, 2021 ============================================================================ ATE Release 6.5.1706.0 September, 2021 ============================================================================ -XTREE refinement: increase the size of the expand/collapse buttons, checkboxes and radiobuttons for higher resolution screens, as the original sizes were getting to be too small. - AUI_IMAGE bug fix: display position was failing to adjust for top or left toolbar. - XTREE bug fix/refinement: column header sort indicators were not working on the right side of a split tree. They now work, but only for the primary sort level. (Secondary/tertiary sort works, but the indicators don't appear.) Requires SftTree_IX86_U75.dll 7.5.3. ATE Release 6.5.1705.5 July, 2021 ============================================================================ - Various refinements to the drag-and-drop feature introduced in 6.5.1705.0. - XTREE bug fix: AutoSum wasn't working in a multi-level tree unless the XTF_MLVL flag was explicitly set. ATE Release 6.5.1705.0 July, 2021 ============================================================================ - Support drag-and-drop of files from Explorer on to static text controls. - XTREE export to spreadsheet bug fix: TreeID strings containing special characters (like colon or slash) where interfering with the creation of the spreadsheet export files. ATE Release 6.5.1704.0 June, 2021 ============================================================================ 4- ASHNET.DLL 1.14.175 fixes an issue with FTP2. Also includes minor updates to the underlying HTTP and SSL/TLS libraries. - Fix display bug in FTP2 XFTPF_DEL operation - the progress dialog was was displaying the message "Out of Queue Blocks" instead of "Deleting". - Mouse cursor reporting sequence enhancement: The TAB(-1,158) scheme for converting mouse clicks into byte sequences now works with controls that are nested within parent controls (such as a TABX or dialog) rather than being directly part of the main window. Previous enhancement (see 6.5.1702.0 below) only worked for controls that were direct children of the main window. ATE Release 6.5.1703.0 May, 2021 ============================================================================ - GDI printing bug fix: //TEXTCENTER wasn't working properly with &#ddd and &#xhhhh entity references. - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(263) supports two minor enhancements to existing INI file options: -- SendToPC=2 forces the file transfer to use the ATE-specific non-FTP transfer protocol (useful in environments where (S)FTP is not supported). Option 1 continues to use (S)FTP if the server is not Windows and the file is larger than about 10K. -- SaveToDir now supports AMOS-style directories, including ersatz. Previously it only supported native directory notation. If the directory does not exist and cannot be created, it will be ignored. ATE Release 6.5.1702.0 April, 2021 ============================================================================ - Mouse cursor reporting sequence enhancement - extended support to objects created by TPRINT, DPRINT, etc. - High res refinement: initial size of window (saved and restored from the .ash settings file) now scaled to result in the same physical size whether or not the -dpm switch is used. - ASHNET.DLL 1.14.174 - close window for possible crash in FTP2 XFTPF_DIR operation. ATE Release 6.5.1701.3 March, 2021 ============================================================================ - XTEXT active editing background color can now be overridden by app. - XTREE bug fix to multi-select and drag-drop return status in a multi- tree environment. - XTREE bug fix - editing font was in some cases much larger than the display font (mostly in a multi-tree environment). - XTREE refinement - filter dialog text now localizable via SBRMSG.xxx, and the pop-up dialogs stay on top of everything. (previously was possible to cover them up, giving the impression that the app was hung.) - Open file dialog now stays on top of other windows (avoids same issue described above for the filter dialogs). - Remove dependency on Windows 10 GetDpiForWindow() function. ATE Release 6.5.1701.0 March, 2021 ============================================================================ - Support WSD printers - XTREE bug fix: resetting the configuration from the context menu was making the internal row index column visible. - Improvements to the high DPI support (-dpm) - Main window font sizing bug fix for Courier (where first and last columns were in some environments and window sizes getting clipped.) ATE Release 6.5.1700.0 February, 2021 ============================================================================ - XTREE now remembers the auto-filter button toggle status between sessions, on a per-tree basis. - File open dialog bug fix - the initial file name in the edit box was not getting preloaded from the path specified by the app. - XTREE bug fix: context menu items below the Filter group were off-by-one. ATE Release 6.5.1699.0 February, 2021 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement: option to toggle all filter buttons on the context menu. ATE Release 6.5.1698.0 February, 2021 ============================================================================ - Update the file open/save dialog routine to use the Windows 10 version instead of the prior XP-compatible one. Support new flag to force the previous pane on. - XTEXT now supports the Misc Settings > Set Active Background feature (matching INFLD). - XTEXT bug fix: clicking on an XTEXT control was not triggering the exitcode event if another XTEXT control currently had the focus. ATE Release 6.5.1695.0 January, 2021 ============================================================================ - XTREE refinement - cformat S and Z now both causing zeroes to display as blank when a mask is in effect. ATE Release 6.5.1694.0 December, 2021 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancment - name of exported CSV or XLSX file can now be set via an Advanced Coldef Option. - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(257) fixed problems with automatic date column detection, and with dates not formmating correctly when combined with cell attributes. ATE Release 6.5.1693.0 November, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE supports additional options (left click, double click, ENTER) for toggling expand/collapse state of parent items in multi-level tree. ATE Release 6.5.1692.3 November, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE now supports Control-apostrophe within editable cells to copy the value from the cell above. - Remove Windows 10 dependency introduced in 6.5.1691.3 ATE Release 6.5.1691.3 October, 2020 ============================================================================ - Support new AG_GETDPI command - XTREE refinement - skip sort when reentering an editable tree if XTF_NOREDRAW set. - XTREE refinement - back out the old trick of letting numeric zero appear as blank with cformat S and a numeric mask; now use cformat Z to make it explicit. - XTREE bug fixes - close GPF windows of opportunity related to auto filtering and certain legacy formulations of the answer array. ATE Release 6.5.1691.3 October, 2020 ============================================================================ - The -dpm switch was acting as if forced on, possibly causing windows to appear smaller than normal in high res environments (assuming you weren't already specifying the switch). - INFLD type code ||1 adjusts the timeout behavior so that it starts in suspend mode, but once a character is typed, it processes the countdown irrespective of typing. (Normally, the countdown is only processed after each second without any characters typed, so as to not time out while the operator is working.) The new mode is mainly useful in fields where you only want to accept burst input (say, from a scanner), in which case you should set the timer parameter to 1. - INFLD type code ||p disables the use of the clipboard paste option. - XTREE maximum columns increased from 100 to 200. ATE Release 6.5.1690.4 October, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE AutoFilter refinement: support for filtering of blank cells in CB and Pattern filter. - XTREE refinement: multiple FileListX options now supported on one tree. - XTREE AutoSum bug fix: close loophole in which displayed sum might be incorrect after a XTROP_REPLACE that added rows. - XTREE AutoFilter bug fix: the updatable filter status column (0U) wasn't always getting updated after filtering, causing filtered-out rows to reappear after exit/reentry. - INFLD bug fix: rubout was in some cases leaving the cursor one character to the left of where it should have been. ATE Release 6.5.1690.0 September, 2020 ============================================================================ - TABX refinement: label RGB attributes can now be in the global section. ATE Release 6.5.1689.0 September, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement: support for Advanced Coldef Option ID=### to assign an id to the column that is independing of it's physical position. - XTREE refinement: automatic red coloring of negative values now works even with cformat S provided there is a mask. - INFLD bug fix: some accented characters were not folding to upper case properly, nor were they working properly with copy/paste. - INFLD refinement: Control+LEFT and Control+RIGHT now navigatge to previous and next word when |K option specified. - INFLD enhancement: support type code |9 causing Control+HOME to exit with exitcode 9. - CSV2XL 2.1(253) closed loophole with 00/00/00 date appearing in XLSX file as 11/30/1999. - XTREE bug fixes related to the combination cformat P and the mask option. ATE Release 6.5.1688.0 July, 2020 ============================================================================ - OpenSSL update to 1.1.1g - XTREE bug fix: context menu was crashing with certain export combinations. ATE Release 6.5.1687.1 July, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE bug fix: exporting to CSV or CSV2XL without the new XLSX color attributes support option was resulting in an empty spreadsheet. ATE Release 6.5.1685.0 July, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement: checkbox columns may now contain text as long as the first data position is blank. - XTREE bug fix: separate images with similar names were sometimes sharing the same image due to hash collision in the filespecs ATE Release 6.5.1684.6 June, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE bug fix: CSV mode was in some cases treating the headers as both headers and data. ATE Release 6.5.1684.5 June, 2020 ============================================================================ - TPRINT refinement: text objects now use the MBF_AUTOGROW so as to not take any more room than necessary. - //TEXTRECTANGLE refinement/bug fix: directives with no text argument were incorrectly being interpreted as the start of a multi-line construct. ATE Release 6.5.1683.0 June, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE refinement: background colors now supported for empty cells in XLSX export. ATE Release 6.5.1682.0 June, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement: support XTREE_EXPCSV2XLSX, $EXPCSV2XLSX to export to XLSX with support for cell colors. (Requires CSV2XL.SBX edit 250+) - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(251) supports: - Totals now use SUBTOTAL(9,range) to support embedded subtotals - Support //XL,OUTPUTFORMAT - Support //XL,SETRGBMODE - Support cell-level attribuutes - Several bug fixes related to SetRow ATE Release 6.5.1681.0 May, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE refinement: splitter bar optimization was too tight. - XTREE bug fix: unterminated ansary was sometimes crashing XTREE - EVENTWAIT refinement: reduce chance of infinite loop when invalid params passed. ATE Release 6.5.1680.0 April, 2020 ============================================================================ - Support TAB(-10,AG_DPM) to set the DPI awareness mode. ATE Release 6.5.1676.5 April, 2020 ============================================================================ - APEX refinement: //XOFFSET and //OFFSET now persists across page breaks. - APEX bug fix: //SETOPTION values were being reset at the start of printing from the printer selection dialog. ATE Release 6.5.1676.3 February, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTEXT and AUI_IMAGE now use FTP2 instead of FTPDLX when transferring files between server and client. Eliminates complication of needing to register the FTPDLX DLL. ATE Release 6.5.1675.0 January, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE enhancement: new advanced coldef option AutoNumber= - Fix bug related to escaping of special characters (like quote) when passing between server and client during data entry. (Symptom was appearance of sequences like %22 in a data field in place of a quote.) - XTREE bug fix: the ^z undo operation for enhanced checkboxes was in some cases failing to recover the initial state. - XTREE bug fix: updatable color columns were losing their color codes on update when AutoFiltering. ATE Release 6.5.1674.0 January, 2020 ============================================================================ - XTREE bug fix: click on inactive sorted tree was activating wrong row. ATE Release 6.5.1673.0 December, 2019 ============================================================================ - Support printer pseudo-device LASTPROMPT: (to print to the last selected printer without prompting again). ATE Release 6.5.1672.0 December, 2019 ============================================================================ - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(244) - support multi-line banners using ^M - Fix bug with update routine failing to exit properly. ATE Release 6.5.1671.7 December, 2019 ============================================================================ - Increase max size of INFLD multi-line text from 1K to 4K - XTREE bug fix: editing cells with color bytes was not always working. - LibXL.dll 3.8.8 bug fixes and refinements for AXL - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(242) - fix formatting issues with banners - CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(243) - support //XL,SetGroup directive - Fix spurious demo mode messages when launching auxiliary processes (such as to view Connection Properties). - Fix spurious display of debug message window for an instant when exiting using the "X" button. - GDI Printing bug fix: loss of orientation, papersize or bin after first page of second copy (when printing multiple copies). ATE Release 6.5.1671.2 November, 2019 ============================================================================ - Fix bug in INFLD ||s code, introduced in 1670. ATE Release 6.5.1671.1 November, 2019 ============================================================================ - Host address field can now be set to ? to bypass the initial connection attempt and go directly to alternate login dialog. (This is mainly useful as a way around the inability to save a named configuration that has no host address.) - Updated SftTree_IX86_U_75.dll 7.5.3.0 (column width optimization now takes header filter buttons into account.) ATE Release 6.5.1671.0 November, 2019 ============================================================================ - CSV2XL 2.1(240) and 241 updates (header scroll-lock fix and footnote support) ATE Release 6.5.1670.3 November, 2019 ============================================================================ - Correction to 1670.2 which was interfering with the initial XTREE sort order for columns without a HdrClickExit definition. ATE Release 6.5.1670.2 October, 2019 ============================================================================ - Refinement/fix to the XTREE HdrClickExit feature so that it now returns the xtr'columnsort() and xtr'sortorder() arrays as if sorting had occurred. - Refinement to the secure password feature to make the reveal button only available after the password has been changed and while it is still being edited.

ATE Release 6.3.1545.6 March, 2017 ============================================================================ - TABX bug fix related to handling of redundant commands from the application to add a control that already existed. - XTREE bug fix: background color of cell being edited was incorrrectly set to white instead of a lighter version of the normal cell background color. - AUI bug fix: deleting a control by name or ID wasn't working when there was a TABX in existence which was not parent to the control being deleted. - TABX/AUI bug fix: main window wallpaper background was failing to be refreshed when there was a TABX control overlaying it. - XTREE bug fix: the default Copy/Paste context menu was interfering with custom right-click menus. - APEX/GDI printing bug fix: (ATECFX.SBX 4.4.176): the CPP Normal and Wide values in the Printer area of the configuration were subject to being converted from specific numeric values to 0 (expand to fill page width) during save/restore registry operations. ATE Release 6.3.1544.8 February, 2017 ============================================================================ - Fix TABX over-optimization problem with XTREE ATE Release 6.3.1544.7 February, 2017 ============================================================================ - ASHNET2.DLL 2.3.208 - Updates to underlying protocol libraries: OpenSSL updated from 1.0.1g to 1.0.2k LIBSSH2 updated from 1.4.3 to 1.8.0 Close security loophole opened in 2.3.207 in which a non-admin user was allowed to make an SSH connection using an all-users (i.e. admin-level) configuration even if the fingerprint didn't match. (The theory here is that if a user doesn't have privileges to updated the accepted server fingerprint, she shouldn't have privileges to connect with a bad fingerprint.) Administrators can disable this protection by enabling the auto-accept fingerprint option on the Transport tab of the configuration dialog. - Revise TABX optimization (see 1544.5) to re-enable support for dialog wallpaper. - Minor CPU-level optimization in Windows AUI message handling. - Imaging bug fix: close loophole in which a PNG filespec with trailing blanks would fail to load (at best). ATE Release 6.3.1544.6 February, 2017 ============================================================================ - ASHNET2.DLL 2.3.207 - Allow non-admin users to access the stored SSH fingerprint in order to authenticate connections for all-user configurations. (All-user configurations are stored in an area of the Registry that is read-only to non-admin users. ATE was previously trying to access the stored fingerprint in read-write mode in case it needed to be updated, but this prevented access by non-admin users even when the fingerprint didn't require updating. Now it accesses the stored fingerprint in read-only mode to allow connections for non-admin users, provided the matching fingerprint was previously stored by an admin user.) ATE Release 6.3.1544.5 February, 2017 ============================================================================ - Adjustments to TABX paint logic to improve performance. ATE Release 6.3.1544.2 February, 2017 ============================================================================ - ASHNET.DLL 1.10.158 (various refinements/fixes to FTP2) ATE Release 6.3.1544.0 February, 2017 ============================================================================ - Further refinements to TABX rendering to support directly overwrite of static controls. ATE Release 6.3.1543.6 February, 2017 ============================================================================ - XTREE refinement: missing semicolon at end of PopupMenu now supplied. - TABX refinements: optimizations to the display logic to reduce the amount of flicker and redraw.

ATE Release 6.3.1537.0 November, 2016 ============================================================================ - Implement footers for XTREE - Fix MBF_VCENTER (broken in 1535.0) - ASHNET.DLL 1.8.154 - Fix XTREE bug relating to use of date picker for editable cells - XTREE performance enhancement (mainly noticeable when exiting/re-entering trees with level-state columns (=UH)) ATE Release 6.3.1536.0 November, 2016 ============================================================================ - ASHNET.DLL 1.8.153 - many updates to underlying protocols SSL, SFTP, HTTP. Support new Properties argument. ATE Release 6.3.1535.1 November, 2016 ============================================================================ - Update the ATE and A-Shell icons. ATE Release 6.3.1535.0 November, 2016 ============================================================================ - Add a "Login Dialog" checkbox option to the Login tab of the connection settings dialog in order to resolve some ambiguity over when and if the local login dialog was called. Prior to 5.3.1516, the login dialog was only called when the initial login attempt failed, or if either the name, password, or address fields contained "[INIT]". Since 6.3.1516, the set of conditions was expanded to include whenever either the name, password, or address fields were blank. This subtle change was mainly useful in conjuntion with custom login dialogs (where you may want to prompt for other information prior to the first connection attempt regardless of whether the minimum requirements for login appear to have been met). This had an added benefit for ATSD, where it is impossible for the ATE client to guess what kind of login requirements the server will impose (since it is entirely up to the application). But the downside of the change was that for ATSD cases where the name and/or password weren't actually needed, and thus were left blank in the configuration, it started displaying the login dialog (which was superfluous at best and more like confusing or annoying). So now with the new option, you have total control over whether the local login dialog is called prior to the connection attempt. If the option is checked, or if either the name, password or address fields contain "[INIT]", then the dialog is called first. Otherwise it is not. In the case of UNIX servers, it will still call the login dialog after the first connection attempt, if the attempt fails. - Remove previously limit of 1K on the length of a string returned from an AG_XFUNCS call. ATE Release 6.3.1534.0 October, 2016 ============================================================================ - XTREE bug fix: using CREATE to replace an existing tree was not resplacing all of the column attributes of the original tree. ATE Release 6.3.1533.0 October, 2016 ============================================================================ - Close memory handle leak which was using up a handle each time an INPUT operation within an SBX required more than 4K. - Fix bug causing corruption of the memory handle table during SBX calls involving collections and/or recursion. - Fix bug causing corruption of string stack when processing a very large string constant within an expression. - The FTP transfer protocol and ports now default based on the terminal transport protocol and port if the "Link To Transfer Settings" option is checked. (This was mainly a factor in the ATE Web Connect procotol where it is easy, and possibly desirable, to not specify such settings.) ATE Release 6.3.1532.0 October, 2016 ============================================================================ - Refinements to webcache for DLLs - Update check-for-updates module (was incorrectly looking at 6.2 availability before updating itself.) ATE Release 6.3.1531.0 October, 2016 ============================================================================ - Various refinements to the custom ashell-ate URL scheme, including two new pseudo-configuration parameters LoginSBX= and WebRepo= allowing you to specify in the web page the name of a custom login dialog and a web repository to download it (and any other auxiliary files) from. - AG_WEBCACHE command implemented to allow server/application to update the webcache options on the client. SET.LIT 1.2(159) uses it to implement the ATE option in the SET WEBCACHE sub-commands.

This adds a 3-state checkbox to the header of the column which can be clicked repeated to cycle through the all-checked, all-clear, all-indeterminate (if applic) and original states. - XTREE enhancement: column ordering can now be saved (using TreeID and the XTUFCG_COLORD bit in XTR'USRCFG) for up the maximum 100 columns (up from the previous limit of 31).
