- | **Mac OSX Catalina** As of this moment I do not recommend that anyone update to OSX Catalina. Changes in Catalina have disabled several of the older plugins and the newer ones are not fully tested with it yet. As of this moment I do not recommend running Catalina on your house server. I don’t see any advantages and there are many potential issues not just with XTension. I can provide an Apple notarized DMG file of the subset of plugins that do work properly if this is something that you need. Otherwise do not update to Catalina yet for your house server.\\ | ||

- | **Mac OSX Mojave** has changed the requirements for scripting of other applications. You MUST force any script to run that contacts a different application when you upgrade and click “OK” when it asks for permission or your scripts will silently fail when they run later.

- | ====9.4.30 Change Log:==== | + | ---- |
- | * Fix for encryption library failures with the Home Kit Plugin | + | |
- | * Fix for shared units not updating in the plugin database. This affected Home Kit, Alexa, the Shared Database plugins and the WebSocket plugin. | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | This release was a hot patch to fix problems with Home Kit and shared databases. No other changes or additions were made since 9.4.28. The 9.4.28 changelog is included below. | + | |
+ | I was overly aggressive in the previous version at removing older deprecated plugins that have newer replacements. I have undone that decision and replaced all the plugins that I removed in the last release. Your database should load and run normally in this version if it has in any of the more recent versions. As of this moment the only plugins that have actually been removed from the package are the original Arduino plugin, the original Vera plugin, the original Hue plugin, and the original Barix plugin. If you are coming from a version old enough to have still included those you will have to edit the interface for those and change them to the new version before they can run. | ||
- | ====9.4.28 Change Log:==== | + | You will see a new Plugin Validation window if any plugin issues are found at startup that will help you to know why something isn’t running and how to convert to the new plugin. |
- | | + | ====9.4.33 Change Log:==== |
- | * NEW: The first pass at a Catalina capable RFX plugin for the newer RFX devices. This plugin is in alpha at the moment and incomplete. It does not try to transmit and does not yet support | + | |
- | * NEW: Added the [[supported_hardware: | + | * I put back all but the originally removed plugins, including |
- | * Icons in the Select Unit Icon window are now always presented in alphabetical order. | + | * NEW: The first pass at the Weatherflow |
- | * FIX: The [[supported_hardware: | + | * VERA: If you issue an X10 only command to a unit that is now part of a Vera interface it will no longer cause the Vera interface to crash and restart. Previously it would do this if you did something like tell it to send an All Units Off command which is an X10 only command as there is no equivalent for ZWave. |
- | * FIX: The xBee plugin | + | * VERA: The Vera plugin |
- | * FIX: Fixed a problem that cause the master | + | * VERA: The Vera plugin |
- | * FIX: Fixed a timing problem | + | * FIX: Errors logged by an interface during shutdown will now be filterable in the log by the interface |
- | * FIX: Another issue with shared databases if you set a unit property from the on propertyChanged event those messages could also bounce back and forth forever. This is now properly supported. | + | * FIX: Previously |
- | * FIX: Fixed a problem in the [[supported_hardware: | + | * WEB REMOTE: I have increased |
- | * FIX: Fixed a problem | + | * WEB REMOTE: |
- | * FIX: In all plugin configuration and unit configuration windows and dialogs the tab order of controls | + | * FIX: Shared Databases |
- | * FIX: Fixed a potential issue with sending emails that could cause timeouts | + | * FIX: The global “thisUnit” will now be valid even if you just created |
- | * FIX: Fixed a minor issue where the transmitted packet count was not updated for a shared database connection. | + | * CHANGE: the global “thisUnit”, |
- | * Added support for radio button groups in the plugin configuration windows. | + | * FIX: If there was a script problem that caused |
- | * Added support for the barometer/ | + | |
- | * Changed | + | |
- | * Added the ability for a custom column in a unit list to also look into the lower level database of the unit for it’s value. You just need to use the actual database key rather than the name of a unit property. This will be of limited usefulness to the majority of you but has already come in handy for me in debugging things. | + | |
