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