This release, contrary to its ".0" suffix, isn't revolutionary - I just
ran out of digits in the mod level counter before I came up with
anything extraordinary to release. This is a collection of bug fixes
and general useability improvements.

There's growing interest in 64-bit Windows, and the RXTX dll for that
platform wasn't working correctly - so I sourced a build from our
friends at cloudhopper (http://www.cloudhopper.com/opensource/rxtx/)
that has been beta tested by several folks.

http://adtpro.sourceforge.net

1.2.0 - January 14, 2012

Bug fixes:

* [Server] Integrate Cloudhopper's 64-bit Windows RXTX dll - fixes
2-way Windows 7 64-bit serial communications

* [Server] If a serial configuration isn't usable, it doesn't just
put up the dialog box saying you should change the configuration
- it brings up the change configuration dialog so you can
actually do it

* [Server] Be consistent when automatically adding file suffixes
(.dsk vs. .DSK)

* [Client] Don't lock out interrupts during program execution - it
hinders things like the GS Desk Accessory bringup

* [Client] Apple /// responds a little better to "disk switched"
notifications like those produced by the CFFA300 card

* [Client] Apple /// Ethernet screen layout was missing DHCP
configuration option

David,
It may be minor upgrades but you continue to make a great program even
better!

Good work as usual, David. Dean is right, you are doing a great job
and my IIgs is very happy with the improvement ;-)

Thanks as always for your kind words of encouragement.

One additional feature I failed to mention - Leandro Polimeno requested
a way to start a server in a particular mode automatically. That is in
this version - invoking the start script (adtpro.sh, adtpro.bat) with
the name of your communications mode of choice activates that
configuration. I.e.
'adtpro ethernet'
starts up the server with the Ethernet button "pushed." You just use
the name of the button in your native language (as it appears on the
button itself).

Leandro M Polimeno

David,

Thanks very much ... as you may see put a question last night about it
on sourceforge forums !!

May I have not mention before, so, really good job with ADTPro, in my
list of new technology/methods for ours beloved ancient machines your
software is on the top of my list, helped me bring a ][+ to life and
spark the flame on me to get a //GS.

Tks and keep going with the grat job

Regards,

Leandro

I also agree that adtpro is a fantastic pgm.

I missed something along its development path and need to ask a really
NOOBEE question.

I put the server software in my Macs Applics folder. I put the stuff
from the disks folder onto my IIGS. Where do I put the stuff from the
lib folder?

I put the v1.2.0 server software on my Mac, but when I double-click
the server that starts says v1.1.7. (Yeah, I have 3 or 4 versions in
my Applics folder.) Do I need to delete all previous versions?

Thanks!

Hi, Steve! Sorry for the messy littering of files and stuff in the
..dmg. Next release will be better, I promise. All you need to do is to
drag the whole thing as-is into your Applications folder (or any folder
you like, even the desktop). The lib folder needs to be one level below
the .app, as that's where it will go looking for it.

You don't need to, but you certainly can. It sounds like you've got a
mixture of versions and folders, mostly my fault for not organizing
things better. You should probably have a structure like this:
Applications
+ADTPro-1.2.0
+lib
+disks
and then you invoke the .app by double-clicking on the ADTPro-1.2.0 icon
in the ADTPro-1.2.0 folder.

ADTPro + CF3K = <3

Being so lazy that unplugging the USB stick from the extension cable
connected to my CF3K and plugging it into my Mac running CiderPress is
just *too* much work, I've found a great workflow. ADTPro will allow
you to save to any available volume, even SmartPort ones that are
mapped through the CF3K onto the USB stick. I go to the CF3K menu,
create a new, blank image and map it to a SmartPort volume. Now I can
just drag the disk image on the Mac into ADTPro's disk directory and
get it from the ADTPro client on the A2; right to the newly minted
image on the SmartPort volume. The files can be moved around easily
on the A2 from there. So painless and quick.

The only other feature I could imagine would be able to transfer SHK
files and save them expanded into a directory. And vice versa. Yeah,
that'd be cool.

But I'm plenty happy now. Thanks!

Dave...
