Product information dialogs (aka About Boxes) for Development Tools appear active.

2148

The OSUtil sample application clears output fields before processing.

2149

The command line option "-inclst" which lists the source code files used in the creation of a Windows Executable Binary (i.e. .web), can be used both at compile and runtime.

2151

When a Help Panel is active, the About Box was sometimes hidden behind the parent application's main window.

2153

All fixed length strings within structures can be defined without space for a terminating NULL character.

2154

New routine "SetEBCDICCodePage" in the File I/O library allows for different code pages to be converted.

2163

Failure to install a font at runtime is now reported via a message box as well as the existing message in the errorlog. Also, ESL fonts are installed during the installation process, with no additional fonts installed by default at runtime.

2164

The Message Manager development tools ensures any edits are validated and saved when creating an amended error message text file.

2167

It is now recommended that the "pragma pack" compiler directive be used to ensure structures shared between ESL and "C" routines have the same single byte member alignment. Using the compiler option "\Zp1" to set the default alignment could result in mis-alignment of members within structure passed to system API's.
