- AmigaNCP-FileServer 1.6
- -----------------------
- - reversed "HideIcons" to be "ShowIcons", hiding .info and .backdrop
- being the new default setting.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileServer 1.7
- -----------------------
- - fixed to a misunderstanding on RF_OPEN with P_FCREATE / P_FREPLACE:
- The path of the file wasn't created if it didn't exists. This caused
- problems with Backup option of the S3a which relies on this behavior
- and doesn't makedir() it's file's path.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileServer 1.8
- -----------------------
- - changed to use "amigancp.library"
- - fixed a bug in write handling where the last two bytes of a full
- sized packet got trashed. Since internal data structures got
- overwritten, this may have caused undefined behaviour or even
- total system crashes.
- - now correctly converts filenames from IBM to ISO charset.
- - RF_SFSTAT (setting the file flags) didn't convert the name and
- therefore always failed with E_FILE_NXIST. This is the cause of
- error of the "File doesn't exists" requester after copying a file
- from the S3's system screen.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileServer 1.9
- -----------------------
- - the finfo call now correctly converts the filename to ibm charset.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileServer 1.10
- ------------------------
- - updated to use amigancp.library 3.x
- - now calls the pool functions embedded in amigancp.library to
- avoid hassle on 2.x systems.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileServer 1.11
- ------------------------
- - fixed a bug in workbench startup: the original lock
- wasn't restored after CDing to wa->wa_Lock
- - updated to use amigancp.library 4.x
- - major speedup in all charset conversion operations due to new
- table conversion functions.
- - fixed stupid bug: Used Read()/Write() instead of FRead()/FWrite(),
- thus rendering buffering completely useless if not used in
- conversation mode.
- - updated catalog file to version 2.0.
- - now checks CTRL^C after ReadArgs() to allow early quit.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileServer 1.12
- ------------------------
- - recompiled using SAS/C 6.55
- - cleaned up memory usage; avoid wasting due to mismatched pool
- size rounding and fixed a pool erraneously allocated with a
- puddle size of 4, thus creating a new puddle for every
- allocation.
-
-
- ==========================================================================
-
-
- AmigaNCP-FileSystem 1.5
- -----------------------
- - fixed a bug in the file name conversion where the extension was cutted
- at the first dot, not at the last. Both will fail, but this way
- you are protected against side effects like "delete Agenda.Agn.info"
- deleting "Agenda.agn" instead of simple failure.
- - fixed a bug in ACTION_DELETE where invalid file names (e.g. containing
- multiple extensions) to confusingly cause ERROR_DIRECTORY_NOT_EMPTY.
- Now returns ERROR_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileSystem 1.6
- -----------------------
- - changed to use "amigancp.library"
- - locks now contain a non-zero value in fl_Key. This should fix several
- problems with programs making tricky assumptions about the internal
- lock structure. <sigh>
- - now correctly translates non-ascii characters in filenames from
- ISO to IBM charset.
- - now attempts to recreate the NCP channel if the remote NCP
- changed (e.g. was killed and started again).
- - fixed a race condition when Examine()ing the root dir: the
- filename was actually filled in after the packet was replied.
- - fixed a bug which caused random memory trashing if the first
- entry in a directory scan was volume file.
- - returned TRUE instead of DOSTRUE thoroughly.
- - Examine()/ExNext() now returns the same value in
- fib_DirEntryType and the (undocumented) fib_EntryType,
- as the standard file system does. Should fix several buggy
- directory utilities ;-)
- - ACTION_DELETE always returned ERROR_DIRECTORY_NOT_EMPTY on
- an error no matter what really happened.
- - now returns ERROR_DEVICE_NOT_MOUNTED if the NCP link fails
- for some reason.
- - ACTION_EXAMINE on the root directory now correctly
- returns the volume name.
- - Locking "/" (or any combined form) didn't get higher than the
- pseudo subdirectories in NCP:.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileSystem 1.7
- -----------------------
- - ACTION_EXAMINE/ACTION_EXNEXT now correctly convert the
- filename charset from IBM to ISO.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileSystem 1.8
- -----------------------
- - updated to use amigancp.library 3.x
- - now calls the pool functions embedded in amigancp.library to
- avoid hassle on 2.x systems.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileSystem 1.9
- -----------------------
- - fixed a bug in initdirlist() which could cause misaligned word
- access if the P_FINFOs returned by the Psion weren't word aligned.
- Caused a 80000003 guru on 68000 machines.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileSystem 1.10
- ------------------------
- - fixed a bug in ACTION_WRITE: remote errors (e.g. Disk Full)
- weren't correctly reported to the caller, instead the write
- simply aborted.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileSystem 2.0
- -----------------------
- - now stores icon files in a special AmigaDOS directory hierarchy
- to allow snapshoting and permanent option setting. The icon path
- defaults to PROGDIR:Icons, but can be specified by the ICONDIR
- tooltype or shell argument. Release versions are shipped with
- a default icon tree.
- - corrected inefficent pool size for the ACTION_EXNEXT cache.
- - the "Missing Server" requester now has an additional option "Run Server
- and Retry".
- - on CTRL^C now reports number of open locks/files if quit is currently
- not possible.
- - on CTRL^F now dumps a debug list of locks in use.
- - now fakes fib_NumBlocks on Examine() to enforce compatibility
- with even more buggy directory utilities.
- - did some internal code cleanup.
- - updated to use amigancp.library 4.x
- - fixed a bug in workbench startup: the original lock
- wasn't restored after CDing to wa->wa_Lock (yes, this was
- exactly the same bug as in the FileServer ;-)
- - major speedup in all charset conversion operations due to new
- table conversion functions.
- - updated catalog file to version 2.0.
- - now checks CTRL^C after ReadArgs() to allow early quit.
-
- AmigaNCP-FileSystem 2.1
- -----------------------
- - recompiled using SAS/C 6.55
- - ACTION_SETPROTECT & ACTION_SETDATE on one of the fake device
- subdirectories return ERROR_INVALID_OBJECT_NAME which was
- correctly generated by the Psion file server. Now since this
- caused problems with several backup utilities, these operations
- are now implemented as NO-OPs and silently report "OK".
- - fixed ACTION_COPY_DIR(NULL) to return NULL instead of causing
- several enforcer hits and undefined behavior.
- - now returns approximated memory usage on CTRL^F debug dump.
- - reduced lock and fib pool sizes to reduce overall memory usage
- overhead.

-
-
- ncp.lib 1.1
- -----------
- - modified constructor to open "amigancp.library"
- - fixed error requester to correctly show up the tasks name on
- workbench startup.
-
- ncp.lib 1.2
- -----------
- - updated to open V3 of "amigancp.library"
-
- ncp.lib 1.3
- -----------
- - updated to open V4 of "amigancp.library"
-
-
- ==========================================================================
-
-
- AmigaNCP-Monitor 1.3
- --------------------
- - relinked with ncp.lib 1.1 to use "amigancp.library"
-
- AmigaNCP-Monitor 1.4
- --------------------
- - relinked with ncp.lib 1.3 to use V4 of "amigancp.library"
-
- AmigaNCP-Monitor 1.5
- --------------------
- - recompiled using SAS/C 6.55
-
-
- ==========================================================================
-
-
- amigancp.library 2.0 (formerly called "ncp.library")
- ----------------------------------------------------
- - "ncp.library" is now named "amigancp.library" in order to avoid problems
- with Oxxi's Novell Client software, which uses a similary named
- library.
- - fixed several internal problems with reconnecting after the remote
- side powered off without killing the actual NCP connection. This
- always happened when the S3/S3a auto-powered off. Should now
- correctly handle all cases of reconnection including such
- nice operations as removing the link cable, turning off the
- S3 link, reconnecting the cable and then turning back on
- the link process.
- - usage of the SERF_7WIRE protocol prevented llmac to "ping"
- the S3 back into life after a power-off because DSR was low.
- Now, if DSR is low, correctly closes the device, reopens it
- without SERF_7WIRE to ping the S3 and then continues
- normal operation.
- - partial packets weren't properly discarded after a
- reconnection.
- - LLMAC didn't check data block sequence numbers. Now
- data blocks which are not in sequence are silently
- thrown away.
-
- amigancp.library 3.0
- --------------------
- - embedded the AsmXXPool-functions from amiga.lib to secure
- operation with AmigaOS 2.x systems.
-
- amigancp.library 3.1
- --------------------
- - recompiled to use utility.library for 32 bit math.
-
- amigancp.library 3.2
- --------------------
- - fixed a possibly hangup in internal channel flushing during
- reconnection.
-
- amigancp.library 4.0
- --------------------
- - added functions to directly return pointers to internal
- conversion tables for more efficient charset conversions.
- - fixed possibly crash on reconnection during connection
- request.
-
- amigancp.library 4.1
- --------------------
- - recompiled using SAS/C 6.55.
- - changed to directly drop the NCP connection if the last user
- closes it's channel.
-
- ==========================================================================
-

- --------------------
- - changed all references to "ncp.library" to "amigancp.library"
-
- Install-AmigaNCP 0.5
- --------------------
- - fixed to avoid the well known COPYLIB "newname"
- problem with older Installer versions.
-

- --------------------
- - updated to copy "Submissions" drawer
-
- ==========================================================================
-
