Version 2.3.99.4 |
|---|
| 10 |
|
|---|
| 11 |
* New core support and fixed parsing of others. |
|---|
| 12 |
* Pause detection works properly now. |
|---|
| 13 |
* Update available window will show version numbers on subsequent updates. |
|---|
| 14 |
* Benchmarks database now stored in xml format. |
|---|
| 15 |
|
|---|
| 16 |
Version 2.3.99.2 |
|---|
| 17 |
|
|---|
| 18 |
* New core support. |
|---|
| 19 |
* Fixed thread-safety issues. |
|---|
| 20 |
* Projects database now stored in xml format. |
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 |
Version 2.3.99.1 |
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 |
* Fixed nasty crash-bug on Windows when monitoring Linux clients. |
|---|
| 25 |
|
|---|
| 26 |
Version 2.3.99 |
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 |
* Removed WU info panel from default view. |
|---|
| 29 |
* Lots of performance changes. |
|---|
| 30 |
* You can now monitor clients via FTP and HTTP. |
|---|
| 31 |
* You can upload web output to an FTP server automatically. |
|---|
| 32 |
|
|---|
| 33 |
Version 2.3.4 |
|---|
| 34 |
|
|---|
| 35 |
* This version fixes the nasty bug in 2.3.3 which cause clients to fail to |
|---|
| 36 |
update after non-specific periods of time. This was caused by a typo in them |
|---|
| 37 |
update queue handler which now works properly. |
|---|
| 38 |
* CPU usage has been reduced slightly when refreshing clients thanks to a |
|---|
| 39 |
re-worked message logger. |
|---|
| 40 |
* clientstab.txt is now tab-delimited. This has no effect on FahMon, but may |
|---|
| 41 |
break compatibility with other tools that read this file. |
|---|
| 42 |
|
|---|
| 43 |
Version 2.3.3 |
|---|
| 44 |
|
|---|
| 45 |
* The client list view has been made much more configurable and additional |
|---|
| 46 |
columns can be added with a right click on the column title. |
|---|
| 47 |
* You can now completely hide the WU Info panel on the right hand side of the |
|---|
| 48 |
main FahMon window. |
|---|
| 49 |
* Clients can now be managed from the main menu instead of a right click menu |
|---|
| 50 |
in the clients list. |
|---|
| 51 |
* Clients can now be manually disabled if you don't want FahMon to monitor them. |
|---|
| 52 |
* Paused clients can now be detected and shouldn't register as *hung*. |
|---|
| 53 |
* A number of debilitating bugs that affected GPU monitoring have been fixed. |
|---|
| 54 |
* FahMon on Windows now follows MS guidelines for storage of settings. This |
|---|
| 55 |
means no more problems with UAC on Vista when downloading project updates. |
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 |
Version 2.3.2b |
|---|
| 58 |
|
|---|
| 59 |
* Several behavioural fixes to dialogs and a number of visual fixes including |
|---|
| 60 |
displaying fractional deadlines correctly. |
|---|
| 61 |
* Windows now maximises from the System tray correctly. Finally. |
|---|
| 62 |
* A number of performance and behaviour tweaks to the OS X build. |
|---|
| 63 |
|
|---|
| 64 |
Version 2.3.2a |
|---|
| 65 |
|
|---|
| 66 |
* FahMon now runs on Mac OS X! |
|---|
| 67 |
* Several annoying Win32 bugs have been squashed, and the endian swap bug has |
|---|
| 68 |
been fixed. |
|---|
| 69 |
|
|---|
| 70 |
Version 2.3.2 |
|---|
| 71 |
|
|---|
| 72 |
* Lots of bug fixes in this release to make FahMon more stable, there should be |
|---|
| 73 |
far fewer instances of FahMon crashing for no apparent reason, and CPU usage |
|---|
| 74 |
whilst reloading clients has been decreased. |
|---|
| 75 |
* Several bits of data are now retreived using core code from qd (Queue Dumper) |
|---|
| 76 |
http://linuxminded.xs4all.nl/?target=software-qd-tools.plc |
|---|
| 77 |
* Web output is now completely configurable thanks to a new templating system |
|---|
| 78 |
which allows you to create custom output pages. |
|---|
| 79 |
* Documentation should now be much more understandable. |
|---|
| 80 |
|
|---|
| 81 |
Version 2.3.1 |
|---|
| 82 |
|
|---|
| 83 |
* The most obvious new change to version 2.3.1 is the new "WebApp" module. This |
|---|
| 84 |
enables you to export the monitoring information provided by FahMon to a web- |
|---|
| 85 |
page, or to a file for viewing over a secure shell. |
|---|
| 86 |
* Drag and drop capability has been added to the client-list too, so you just |
|---|
| 87 |
drag and drop your FAH folder onto the list, and the add client dialog appears |
|---|
| 88 |
with the location field already filled in. This works for multiple clients |
|---|
| 89 |
too, you just get presented with multiple dialogs in succession. |
|---|
| 90 |
* An update notification system has been added, which although very basic, will |
|---|
| 91 |
alert you that a new version of FahMon has been released. You can either check |
|---|
| 92 |
manually from the menu item, or allow FahMon to check every time it starts. |
|---|
| 93 |
|
|---|
| 94 |
Version 2.3.0 |
|---|
| 95 |
|
|---|
| 96 |
* First ever NEWS entry thanks to the GNU build system. The scons installation |
|---|
| 97 |
system has been removed completely from the source package, so now you should |
|---|
| 98 |
use the familiar "./configure; make; make install;" method to install FahMon. |
|---|
| 99 |
* You can now run FahMon from anywhere on the system (if you're using Linux), |
|---|
| 100 |
and assuming you compiled it right, it will always load the images properly, |
|---|
| 101 |
no more scripting required. |
|---|
| 102 |
* Several minor bugs have been squashed, and a couple of new features added that |
|---|
| 103 |
were requested. |
|---|
| 104 |
* I've built some packages for the Linux distros I happen to have installed, but |
|---|
| 105 |
these may not work (depends if I've built them right or not), so if you find |
|---|
| 106 |
that they're broken, please let me know. |
|---|
| 107 |
