gseller Posted November 28, 2007 Author Posted November 28, 2007 Thanks both of you. GuiListBox.au3 does appear to be the switched name. My application was working fine with GuiList.au3 and with the new build it is gone. I cannot make my script that was working completely function GuiListBox.au3 but will keep trying.. learning my lesson. Don't be so quick to grab the latest build. Let it have some time to get the bugs out.

gseller Posted November 29, 2007 Author Posted November 29, 2007 Still, would be nice to have a little warning so provisioning on current scripts can be made.
PsaltyDS Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Still, would be nice to have a little warning so provisioning on current scripts can be made.I think the idea is that stability is in the production version. Monitoring the Beta versions is how you get you warning. Nothing showed up in the new production 3.2.10.0 that wasn't passed through the 3.2.9.* Betas first.So, for the next cycle: Test your scripts occasionally against the 3.2.11.* Betas (or however they get numbered) as they come out. Possible changes will be tried there before a new 3.2.12.0 production (or 3.3.0.0, whatever) comes out. Should give you plenty of warning about what's coming. You could also monitor the Developer forums if you really want some information overload! Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

squishy Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 Greetings! Just wanted to say thank you to you guys for this post...I was banging my head against the wall wondering why everything changed with the new release! I would have to agree with gesller on his comments, though...nowhere in the production version history does it mention that virtually all the GUI stuff has been changed over to incorporate the AU3Lib stuff. After poking around, I see that the beta version history has it listed. I agree that stability is the driving force behind the production versions - which is exactly the reason that many people will only download those versions (especially when you are running critical programs). I think a small warning - or at least a mention of the major change - in the history would prove to be beneficial to those people (me included). A lesson learned for me, I guess...now to start re-coding my 10,000 line script...

Danny35d Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 Just read the help file history LINKWARNING: The next release of AutoIt will have the following changes which will break backwards compatibility: AutoIt Scripts:NetPrinter - Network Printer UtilityRobocopyGUI - GUI interface for M$ robocopy command line
squishy Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 Yes, I did read that the NEXT release would break backwards compatibility...not this release. It goes on to explain why it will break backwards compatibility - GUIConstants.au3/GUIConstantsEx.au3.Once again, lesson learned on my part. And yes, I will (slowly) start to port my scripts over to the new release to gain the new functionality. Perhaps, like Zedna said, a mention of the major change in UDF's - which are included in the install package - would have been a good mention, even if the core AutoIt files weren't affected.Thanks again for everyone's feedback and support.
