A-Shell Development History

1213.1.1

ABOUT.LIT Display Refinements.

1213.1.2

ATSD/ATE refinement: The window title set by ATE (typically "ATE Connection to <config>") is no longer overwritten by "A-Shell/32 Ver. x.x.xxx.x" on connection to an ATSD server. This was further confusing people who run both A-Shell P2P and ATE connections to the same server.

1213.1.3

Windows resource leak bug fix: The proportional text status line handler was leaking Windows resources, leading to an eventual meltdown condition in which the A-Shell controls would cease to display properly.

1213.0.1

ATE refinement: option to display "session status bar" added to configuration dialog. (The session status bar shows the session clock and progress indicator during host-client transfers.)

1213.0.2

ATE refinement: option to close window on disconnect added to configuration dialog. Previously, and by default, this was always true, meaning that the ATE window closed when the session disconnected. When false, a message box will announce the disconnect (except when initiated from the client side), allowing you to see the last state of the application display when the disconnect occurred.

1213.0.3

XTREE bug fix: Using the Dspwid option with an editable cell to limit the width of the edit box (primarily of interest with property sheet mode where an excessively wide column width may confuse the operator during editing) was having the side effect of always triggering the validation exit (-48) even if the field not changed during editing.

1213.0.4

XTREE enhancement: Dspwid now works with combo box cells in property sheet mode to limit the width of the combo box. Note that the width specified includes the dropdown button, so you may need to adjust it upwards.

1213.0.5

A-Shell/Windows bug fix: Close a loophole that could have caused A-Shell to lock up on startup. The problem was introduced in 1202, and occurred during logging of the startup trace message.

1213.0.6

XTREE refinement: cformat codes M (multi-line) and W (wrap) now work in property sheet mode. Warning: specifying either code for any "column" effectively turns the feature on for all the "columns", since the option is only controllable at the display column level, and in property sheet mode, there is only one display column.

1213.0.7

UNIX log file bug fix: Close a loophole allowing recursive log events , which can lead to stack overflow and crash. Also, protect rollover operation against multiple processes performing the rollover at the same time, which can lead to a gap in the sequence of log file archives and possibly a spurious error message during race conditions. A-Shell/ Windows has had this fix since edit 1202.)
