Since we have some subscribers, I thought I’d let you know that the work has been resumed very officially and that first steps towards a version 1.3 are in full progress.
What I plan to introduce are …
Source code level:
- const-correctness
- Namespaces (new own namespaces and proper usage of existing ones)
- C++ typecasts where possible
- Moving #defines to real C++ constants where possible
New features:
- Update check that can be enabled by the user to receive notifications
- Better mouse navigation
- Save a scan and load it later
- Save report into file (perhaps different formats)
- Proper handling of WOW64 environments
- Explicit Windows Vista symlink handling
- Configuration from different sources (incl. .ini file)
- Native x64 version
- Update: A brand new logo that has been created for and donated to the project (I will likely post a preview soon)
Features that will be removed:
- Support for Windows 9x/ME will be dropped in this upcoming release. Affected users can use the last 1.2 version …
- Support for Windows NT 4.0 may get dropped
- The feedback (bug report) dialog will be replaced by a link to our website where you will be able to enter descriptions of undesired behavior or simple praise
- The send report by mail feature will be removed, instead you will be able to save reports to at least one computer-readable and at least one human-readable file format
