FlashFXP v3.4 Beta 5 - PUBLIC BETA Released!

Linkster · 11-30-2005, 02:07 AM

We are pleased to announce the first public beta of FlashFXP v3.4. Thanks to all of our valued registered users, the private beta stage has been successful, and hopefully v3.4 Beta 5 represents a significant, stable release.

We are planning on at least one more public beta, as well as 1-3 release candidates before the final version is released. We have a few remaining features to include and test.

The highlight of the 3.4 release is multi-language support. We have created a page to help new users download/install and even translate FlashFXP, which can be found at http://www.flashfxp.com/languages. Please give our translators time to move their languages over to the new pages...until they are moved, you may download language files from http://www.flashfxp.com/scripts. An updated help file has also been included. Please let us know if we missed anything.

As you can see, v3.4 has some fairly significant updates, and we invite all of our users to install/test this version. Please provide as much feedback as possible via this forum. A new webpage dedicated to this beta release is being crafted, but we wanted to give our forum users a special preview

FlashFXP v3.4 Beta 5 is available to all users, and can be downloaded from http://www.inicom.net/?d=41

Updates since FlashFXP v3.2.0.1080

New Features

The graph font can now be changed seperately from the application font.
Global "Bind Socket to IP" setting.
Per-Site "Bind Socket to IP" setting.
Multi-language support. See http://www.flashfxp.com/languages for more information.
Added new status msg "Listening on PORT: X, Waiting for connection." to help troubleshoot PORT mode connections.
If Passive mode fails two times in a row, FlashFXP will switch to PORT mode or vice versa.
If the connection is lost to the ftp site you can continue to browse cached folders and queue files. If a task is performed that requires a connection, FlashFXP will reconnect back to the ftp site and then perform that task.
You can now browse cached folders and queue files while a transfer is in progress.
Added Replace feature to internal Text Editor.
Secure certificate details are now stored for later reviewing, they can be viewed via the Site Manager / SSL Tab.
When the speed limit is activated you will see a status indicator icon in the statusbar next to the transfer filename.
Added new option in Preferences / Display / Options "Accurate file system shell icons", when unchecked FlashFXP will use the default icon for each file type. Using default icons rather than accurate icons improves performance.
Per-Site speed limit settings.
Global option to disable speed limiting for lan transfers.
New command line options for download/upload/fxp (see updated helpfile)
Added support for Clear Command Channel (CCC)

Changes

Syncronized Browsing. When browsing remotely the local sync now occurs after the change dir, rather than after the list complete.
Rename will now cancel out if the folder/file name only contains spaces.
The active selection in the Preferences is now saved and remembered when you re-enter the Preferences dialog.
OpenSSL DLL's updated to 0.9.8a (Compiled with VS2005 for speed)

Fixes

When selecting files in the local browsing the selection size isn't updated probably due to a syntax error.
If FlashFXP was locked with a password and on transfer complete triggers it was unable to close properly.
If the connection is lost during a delete operation and the user clicks yes to the a reconnect prompt, after connecting FlashFXP sometimes ended up in the wrong folder.
Once the connection retry count was reached the 'Go' and 'stop after current transfer' buttons states weren't updated properly.
If you connect to a site and while that connection is still being attempted click 'go' the connection attempt isn't properly reset prior to connecting to the site in the queue.
Other minor fixes.
