- Release Notes 1 August 1992

-

-

-
- - Added support for passing the siteIP number in the

-
-
- Wais Listener and C Libraries
- --------------------------
-
- - Added support for fetching particular document types in
- the WaisGetDoc and WaisGetDocToFile functions.
-
- - Added support for passing the siteIP number in the
- WaisGetDocByID and WaisGetDocToFileByID functions.
-
- - Fixed a small memory problem which caused the listener
- to crash at seemingly random times when a long headline
- was returned from a search.
-
- - Better Apple Event errors are now reported so that the Hypercard
- stack can distinguish between errors rather than just get one
- error number.
-
- - The Apple Event functions in the caller and the listener now
- use structures as parameters to between them rather than
- using discrete parameters. This speeds things up a lot and makes
- the handing of errors a lot easier. This means that the client
- (caller) now only receives two parameters from a return Event,
- an error ID and a structure containing the return parameters.
- A side effect of this has been to cut down the number of Apple
- Event parameters tags that need to exists. Also it allows us to
- change the structure without changing the code all that much.
-
- - The document types are now concatenated in a 'return' delimted
- list, if there are more than one.
-
- - The headline cleaning routine has been improved and nowremoves
- all carriage returns, line feeds and non printable characters. It
- has also been made safer.
