34- Functionality of context menus for Browse View and Connection details view
35- Debug on/off option is badly implemented (rework required)
36- smbtree.vrs: Sort options
37- Advanced dialog should be split into connection options and global options

43
44Version 1.3.4
45!Fixed: Readonly connection option did not work (was not implemented)
46Version 1.3.3
47*Changed: Provide better message box for profile saving (to explain rather
48 odd behavior
49Version 1.3.2
50!Fixed: No more double drive letters in the drive letters list after mounting
51*Changed: "Workgroup/ Domain:" back to "Workgroup:"
52Version 1.3.1
53+Added: Explanation for errors in case mount operation fails
54*Changed: "Workgroup:" to "Workgroup/ Domain:"
55Version 1.3
56+Added: Support for the (new) ndpsmb logging feature
57+Added: Support for the (old) ndpsmb logging feature (deactivated)
58+Added: Save "titlebar" color across sessions
59*Changed: Merge Alex Taylor's and Herwig B.'s latest changes
60*Changed: Also display status data in hintarea when mouse cursor is over
61 the "current resources" pane
62!Fixed: Tab order in "new resource" pane
63!Fixed: Help did not work for advanced window in NLV versions
64
65Version 1.2.1 (2009-04, Herwig B.)
66+Added: Try to restart EVFSCTL.EXE once in case it is not running.
67+Added: Implemented support for error messages depending on return codes
68 in case of failed operations as provided from ndpsmb.dll version
69 1.5alpha2 or better.
70*Changed: Move status data of current connection into container caption
71 (Makes more sense there).
72*Changed: Show version notice in status area (at the bottom now)
73!Fixed: In case the connect operation fails on a newly created mount point,
74 the mountpoint is removed again, instead of leaving it in a zombie
75 status. That makes sense as EVFSGUI does not support the creation
76 and maintainance of empty mountpoints (the underlying EVFS (including
77 the REXX interface) supports this, but the GUI does not).
78
79Version 1.2.1 (2009-05, Alex Taylor)
80!Fixed: Main window wasn't set visible if INI file was missing.
81!Fixed: Corrected English, formatting h in helpfile.
82*Added: Better program icon.
83
84Version 1.2 (2008-10)
85*Updated: Finally all the help files are updated to reflect all changes
86 (en, de and fr)
87!Workaround: It appears that for unknown reasons the SysDriveMap() function
88 hangs if it is used with the "FREE" and "REMOTE" flags, after it is
89 called for several times. I noticed that after I received Yuri's
90 latest Samba plugin. The problem disappears if EVFS is not installed.
91 This should be tested (and fixed) by Vitali in EVFS (probably).
92
93+Added: In debug mode the output in the console window has time stamps now
94+Added: Display name and version of the used IFS on "empty" mountpoints
95+Added: Button on the autoload window (the -nogui GUI) to abort reconnection
96+Added: Server entry field is now a drop down combo box holding all servers
97 to which connections were made with)
98+Added: Alternatively support NetDrive for SMB shares instead of EVFS (using
99 undocumented -ndfs switch)
100*Updated: All message files
101!Fixed: Bug in my autoload code
102!Fixed: Bug in my -ndfs code (spotted by Guillaume)
103
104+Added: Autostart EVFS connections feature via Startup folder object
105+Added: -nogui switch (only show a small message window)
106+Added: -autoclose switch (close eVFSGUI after 3 seconds)
107+Added: Load profile specified on the commandline
108+Added: Edit via context menu for mountpoints with exactly one resource
109+Added: Context menu equivalents to the Detach and Unmount pushbuttons
110+Added: The content of the EF_NETWORK field (aka workgroup) is saved to the
111 eVFSGUI.INI as this changes only on rare occasions (saved me a lot of
112 typing during testing)
113+Added: Do not attach drive if has already been attached (from TODO list A.T.)
114!Fixed: Profiles supported plain passwords whereas EVFS provided encrypted
115 passwords in profile files
116!Fixed: eVFSGUI initializes itself properly now
117!Fixed: eVFSGUI would hang after displaying the message "no control program
118 found"
119!Fixed: Cleanup signal stuff ("return" after a signal is a bad thing to do!)
120!Fixed: INI file was not closed after leaving eVFSGUI
121!Fixed: When several mount points exist and the first one is removed the click
122 event routine was executed after the corresponded record was already
123 removed -> eVFSGUI crashed. As a fix the record is validated before an
124 attempt to access its data is done. If it does not exist anymore the
125 event routine is terminated without further action.
