Version 1.2.2441.196 - Monday, November 02, 2015

Updates, features:

1. July 5, 2015 Added MatchControlSize method to core class.
2. September 12, 2015 Added pDel parameter to StringToLines, allowing passing a delimiter to split the string to lines by.
3. September 12, 2015 Added pQuoteChar parameter to ParseCSVLine, allowing setting the quote char for strings.
4. September 12, 2015 Added pDel parameter to FileToLines, allowing it to parse files with End-Of-Line delimiters other than CR, LF and CR+LF.
5. September 12, 2015 Added pDel parameter to WriteQToFile, allowing setting the End-Of-Line delimiters when writing the Lines queue to file. By default CR+LF (<13,10>) is used.
6. October 20, 2015 Added LinesToFile method to StringClass. It's a wrapper for WriteQToFile.
7. October 20, 2025 Added StringToFile method to StringClass. It's a wrapper for WriteStringToFile.
8. October 26, 2015 Added SkipEOLOnLastLine property to StringClass. When using WriteQToFile or LinesToFile it will create an empty line because it added EOL at the end of the last line. If SkipEOLOnLastLine is set to True, then it does not add the EOL at the end of the last line. Original behaviour (adding an empty line) is left intact so it does not break code.
9. October 28, 2015 Added GetStringBetween method to StringClass. It extracts a string from another string by searching for a beginning and end string, optionally starting at given positions. Can be specified if it's case sensitive or not.
10. October 29, 2015 Added SetStringBetween method to StringClass. It inserts a string from another string in the same way as GetStringBetween does.

1. July 4, 2015 Added ADJUST attribute to all #SHEET statements in the templates to make sure they adjust (more) properly when fonts in the IDE are changed.
2. August 14, 2015 StringToLines would fail if the string contained no end-of-line characters. Fixed.
3. September 12, 2015 End-Of-Line variable in LinesToString was declared as CSTRING(4) instead of CSTRING(5). Fixed.
4. October 20, 2015 Preserve Variables template did not generate the correct code if conditions were used. Fixed.

Version 1.2.2433.168 - Monday, June 29, 2015

Updates, features:

1. June 22, 2015: Added pDelimterStartsLine parameter to SplitString. Allows it to split lines based on the start characters of a line, not end characters.
2. June 29, 2015: Added ParseCSVLine method to parse a line with CSV data. Also added FreeCSVFields (protected) method.

Fixes:

1. March 10, 2015: The template could cause classes to export an older version which could cause "xxx is unresolved for export" errors when compiling exporting dlls. Fixed.
2. May 24, 2015: Fixed a potential memory leak in the AddIntoParenthesis method.
3. June 27, 2015: Image Class ResizeImage method did not work correctly on reports. Fixed.

2. December 3, 2014: Added FormatDate and FormatTime to DateClass. Those take a format string, such as 'mm-dd-yyyy' and translate the passed date into the format passed in. This makes the formatting of dates much more flexible than the picture formats in Clarion.
3. December 4, 2014: Added pCaseSensitive=0 to CountFinds, FindReplace and SearchReplace. Previously those were case insensitve, but can now handle case sensitive searches.
4. December 16, 2014: Added Lesser, Greater to the Core Class and ColorToRGB and GetColorBrightness to the Utilities Class.

5. December 19, 2014: FileErrorCode() can return alphanumeric values since it returns a string. ErrorMsg always interpreted it as a LONG so results could be incorrect. Fixed.

4. March 5, 2014: Example code for StringToWords did not show access to the Word queue. Fixed
5. March 30, 2014: CompileSBProject method uses Exists() without ShortPath(). This can cause problems in certain situations reporting that a file/folder does not exist when it does. Fixed.

4. December 12, 2013: Increased number of possible enumerated processes in EnumProcesses from 1024 to 10240.

Version 1.2.2415 - May 14, 2013

2. September 21, 2012: Added ReadFileToQ method to the String Class. It just calls FileToLines, but better matches naming convention with WriteQToFile.
3. September 21, 2012: Added GetLastInputTime and GetIdleTime to the Windows Class. Documentation has also been added.
4. September 22, 2012: Added option to Window Wizard to create tabs on the window. You can enter the text for each tab and create as many tabs as you want.

2. September 21, 2012: #332: Export Class no longer requires the ASCII driver.
3. September 21, 2012: #332: Record Class no longer requires the ASCII driver. There is no longer any dependency on the ASCII file driver in the Utilities as it has been replaced with calls to methods in the String Class.
4. September 21, 2012: #523: Page of Pages template erroneously called %ITPisCpcsReportTemplate group instead of %ITUisCpcsReportTemplate. Fixed.
5. September 22, 2012: Help was not implemented in the Window Wizard. Fixed.

Version 1.2.2408 - July 5, 2012

Updates, features:

1. June 13, 2012: Added global template to handle Legacy applications. Use the "Icetips Utilities Classes Global - LEGACY ONLY" Global template instead of the "Icetips Utilities Classes Global - ABC ONLY" in the applications where you use the Icetips Utilities Classes. This template also needs to be added to the root/exporting dll app.
2. June 22, 2012: Added QueueResorted virtual method to the AddHeaderSortToQueue template. This can only be implemented by modifying the ListQueue property in the brwext.inc file from being PRIVATE to PROTECTED. QueueResorted method is called after the queue is resorted, but a bug in the brwext.clw causes it to be called _before_ the queue is sorted so it's always one sort behind! The overridden method sorts the queue so after the parent call the queue is sorted correctly before your code executes.
3. June 22, 2012: Modified installer to change the ListQueue property from PRIVATE to PROTECTED.
4. June 22, 2012: Completed documentation for List procedures with Windows without HLP attribute utility template.

7. June 23, 2012: Completed documentation for Limit Program Instance template.
8. June 23, 2012: Completed documentation for all Utilities templates.
9. June 25, 2012: Added a check to SetPageOfText method in Page of Pages class to prevent it from potentially replace the page-of token if it is found more than once in the metafile, indicating that the file contained the particular byte array in its internal code. This would prevent any problems due to replacing some of the meta file code from ever happening.
10. June 26, 2012: Finished documentation for Page of Pages Class.
11. June 27, 2012: Finished documentation of Write Version info to INI file template.
12. June 27, 2012: Finished documentation of Add Header Sort to Queue template.

2. June 22, 2012: SplitString could fail with last item in the item array if it contained only one character. Fixed.
3. June 25, 2012: FindInString method in the String Class was not documented. Fixed.
4. June 26, 2012: Limit Program Instance template didn't preserve variable setting for entries, i.e. if "!VarName" was used as "Unique Program String" it would be changed to "VarName". Same with the "Window caption string", "Message Caption" and "Message Text" entries. Fixed.
5. June 26, 2012: Some methods were missing from the Overview and Methods list in the String Class chapter. Fixed.
6. June 27, 2012: GetThemedPanelFEQ did not return the correct FEQ. Fixed.

10. November 12, 2011: Modified return value from the ITRun method so that if the called process returns no exit code, the method returns 0 instead of the return value from WaitForSingleObject. The reason for this change is that it is possible that if the called process returns nothing and WaitForSingleObject returns a value that the calling code is expecting, the results are wrong.
11. January 14, 2012: Finished documentation for Progress Class.
12. May 3, 2012: Added FindReplace, AllocateSearchString and CountFinds methods to Core class. FindReplace is an adidtional search and replace method that returns the replaced string unlike SearchReplace method which needs the string to be passed in as a variable.

Fixes:

1. October 6, 2011: GetMonthName returned space padded month name. Fixed.
2. November 6, 2011: GetSBExecutable in Setup Builder Class would return true if it didn't find the exe. Fixed.

4. November 29, 2010: The GetLastWorkWeek and GetThisWorkWeek did not return the correct dates in some cases. Fixed.

3. Added DumpLinesInQ method to String class to make it easy to move contents of the Lines queue property to a local queue
4. LongToHex moved from UtilityClass to CoreClass
5. Added URLEncode method.
6. Added parameter to SelectFile method in the FileSelectClass. This allows to passing the entire filename to the function and suggesting the passed filename rather than just the folder name.

2. AssociateProgram method in Shell class was not working correctly. Fixed.
3. GetAssociatedProg could fail if extension was more than 4 characters long including the dot prefix. Fixed.

5. SearchReplace could fail to replace if the replace string was shorter than the search for string. Fixed.
6. GetSpecialFolder used 0{PROP:Handle} to get a window handle. However since this method can be called before any window has been opened it could cause a GPF. Changed to use the desktop window instead. Fixed.
7. Standardized Window Code template didn't generate code correctly for the data and routine embeds (an extra couple of spaces was added to the start of the TXA code). Fixed.
8. ReadDirectories method in the File Search Class counted "." and ".." files. Fixed.
9. File Search Class used LONGs for files sizes and totalled file sizes. Changed to Decimal(15,0).
10. ScanFiles method in the File Search Class did not return the correct number of files. Fixed.
11. PathIsDir in CoreClass did not call the correct API. Fixed.

Version 1.1.2351 - April 15, 2009

Updates, features:

1. Utility class documentation finished.
2. String class documentation finished.
3. All topics in the help show when they were last updated. Does not show in the PDF though.
4. RemoveForwardSlash and RemoveBackSlash did not work correctly if the string started and ended with the slash and both should be removed. Fixed.
5. GetFilePart and RemoveBackSlash added to Core Class Demo.
6. Added "pParameters" parameter to ITRunFile to allow passing of parameters to it.
7. Added SetEnvVar method to Shell Class to allow setting environment variables - needs testing.
8. Added ExpandEnvString method to Shell Class to allow expanding environment variables.
9. Added demo of ExpandEnvString to both expand a variable in a string and also us ITRun with %SystemRoot%\System32\taskmgr.exe which runs the task manager.
10. Added code template to call the GetSpecialFolder method of the Shell Class.

Fixes:

1. In some circumstances the SplitString method of the string class could cause a GPF because the end of the datastream was miscalculated as negative. Fixed.
2. ReadFileToString method in the string class was opening the file to read in read+write mode. Changed to read mode only.
3. The OL member of the Lines queue was declared as Cstring(1025) and thus restricted to 1K of data. It is now dynamic.
NOTE: IF you have worked with the Lines queue manually where you have used Free(ITS.Lines) you now need to call the FreeLines method instead of Free(ITS.Lines) or the equivalent or you risk memory leaks. Fixed.
