Hi Two new updates to libUrl are available at the url below:
<http://www.runrev.com/revolution/developers/interimreleases/liburl/releases.shtml> Please note that Starter Kit users won't be able to apply these updates. (This is not a marketing ploy; it's just because the script limits make it impossible to update your current libUrl script. Sorry!) Why two updates....? Version 1.0.7b5 is a relatively minor update (one small bug fix) over 1.0.7b4 which was included with the Metacard 2.4.3 release. (More details are on the site.) Version 1.0.8a1 involves a lot of behind-the-scenes script changes, mainly affecting the way ftp commands are handled. Because of this, it hasn't been tested "in the wild" as extensively as the earlier versions, so you are encouraged to test it thoroughly before distributing it with your applications. However, to encourage you to try it out, it includes a couple of new features: 1. There is a callback feature that lets you get the status of downloads/uploads. It is similar in some ways to the current urlStatus function, but it will work with blocking calls such as "get url". This makes it possible to report download/upload progress for these blocking calls. It should also make it easier to set up something such as a url status panel once, and then have it work automatically for all uploads and downloads without any further scripting. 2. There is now a way to switch the way that ftp directory listings are returned. You can have libUrl use the conventional LIST command (the default) which for most servers returns the conventional Unix-style directory listings. Or you can switch to the NLST comand which returns a list of file names only. Details of these features are on the website.
