Interactive COBOL Notes 3.67 12-Feb-2009 Revision Information -------------------- **** Revision 3.67 **** Bug fixes in 3.67 ----------------- 1. ICQPRW fix. **** Revision 3.66 **** Bug fixes in 3.66 ----------------- None. Changes and New features in 3.66 -------------------------------- 1. Under Windows, SP2/QPR runtime has been updated. Please see the READSP2.TXT file for more information. **** Revision 3.65 **** Bug fixes in 3.65 ----------------- 1. In the compiler, Screen Section attributes were not being properly inherited for empty items or group entries. ** Please re-compile. ** 2. In the runtime, when using colors in the Screen Section certain refresh operations were repainting incorrectly. (Ctrl-U) 3. ICCONFIG, when using the pcwindow or pcwindowmono base terminal selection, was not dumping the color attribute settings. ** Please re-save .tdi files based on those selections. ** 4. Under Windows, in the Installation. If a ThinClient is being installed, the Remote ThinClient Machine selection screen has been changed. It is now called the ThinClient Setup screen and has two additional fields for client argument(s) and surrogate argument(s). These arguments will be used in the shortcut(s) for the ThinClient(s). No arguments are required. 5. At times when Controlling a terminal, keystrokes were not being echo'ed immediately at the watchee. 6. When using IC_SEND_MAIL and providing 8 arguments, sometimes a username/password string of random characters would still be sent. ** Workaround in previous revisions is to have a username/password argument but make it all blanks. 7. IC_SEND_MAIL was not properly handling a leading dot '.' in the message body. ** Workaround is not to have a leading dot. ** Changes and New features in 3.65 -------------------------------- 1. Updated Language Reference Manual (3.60), Utilities manual (3.60), Unix Installation Manual (3.64), and Windows Installation Manual (3.64). 2. Under Windows, the GUI runtime (icrunw) and icrunrc now have a PrtScrn Edit selection. 3. ICCONFIG has been updated, when using the pcwindow or pcwindowmono base terminal definition, to only allow a single foreground and background color to be set. ICEDCFW will also only dump a single color combination. To use different color combinations, use the pcwindowcolor base terminal definition. **** Revision 3.64 **** Bug fixes in 3.64 ----------------- 1. ICRUNRC/ICRUNRS were not properly handling null characters in DISPLAY statements causing a slow down. Changes and New features in 3.64 -------------------------------- 1. Under Windows, ICINFO has been updated to better detect Vista editions and Server 2008. 2. Under Windows, SP2 runtime has been updated. Please see the READSP2.TXT file for more information. **** Revision 3.63 **** Bug fixes in 3.63 ----------------- 1. When using ICRUNRC or ICTHINC, the -u|-U switches were not working correctly. These have been removed and the -p switch added. See below. Changes and New features in 3.63 -------------------------------- 1. ICRUN, ICRUNRC, and ICTHINC have a new switch to always prompt for a network username/password. The -p switch has been added. When using this switch, the Save option is ignored in the username/password screen. For thin clients, the prompt is done immediately. For thick clients, the prompt is done when a connect to a network resource via ICNETD is made. 2. Under Windows, ICRUNW has a new switch. When communicating with a Windows ICRUNRC, ICRUNRS supports the new switch. The -M mode switch can be used to start the process in a particular window mode. The valid values for mode are the values for the IC_WINDOWS_SHOW_CONSOLE builtin plus 0. 0 does nothing, 1 is Hide, 2 is Maximize, 3 is Minimize, etc. When communicating with a UNIX ICRUNRC the Mode option is ignored. **** Revision 3.62 **** Bug fixes in 3.62 ----------------- 1. When using variable length Indexed files, if the last record in the file was not the maximum size the runtime and the ISAM utilities, ICCHECK, ICFIXUP, ICSTAT, and ICREORG would get confused when trying to open the file. 2. Under Windows, at times an IC_KILL_TERM to a process running SP2 would not take effect. (Fixed for icrunw). 3. Under Windows, the console runtime, icrun.exe was not allowing IC_WINDOWS_SHOW_CONSOLE and IC_WINDOW_TITLE builtins to run when on the master console. (Update 2) Changes and New features in 3.62 -------------------------------- None. **** Revision 3.61 **** Bug fixes in 3.61 ----------------- 1. Update to ICSQL to handle columns whose type was SQL_BIT. These will now be returned correctly as a 1 byte numeric or a VARYING CHAR if more than 1 byte. 2. When using an ICTERM setting that uses ansi color sequences, the Reverse attribute could bleed thru and certain Erase operations were not using the correct color values. Changes and New features in 3.61 -------------------------------- 1. Under Windows, update to FormPrint. See readsp2.txt End of Notes
