FtpVC 2.6 frequent builds

Post by amin »

Hi,

I just noticed that there is a Sep 2 build of FtpVC 2.6 available. During the past a few weeks I noticed that various builds have been posted on the download page. Do we have to upgrade whenever you post a new build? What is being fixed in each build? There is no manifest. Would appreciate a bit of disclosure as we may end up chasing bugs that you are fixing quietly and frequently.

Thanks

If you using version 2.6, you are advised to download the latest build of it.

We only document changes that affect the end user. In many cases changes are small tweaks and minor fixes that only alter the internal structure of FtpVC.

Sorry for my skepticism but I take this to mean that the release is not stable yet. Can you please provide instructions as how I can downgrade to the 2.5 version? Should I delete all the stubs 2.6 created and 2.5 will automatically regenerate stubs? Will I lose any history?

You can certainly downgrade to 2.5 this way (see viewtopic.php?f=4&t=35#p85). However, the labeling bug you reported in another thread is not new in 2.6; it existed in 2.5a. The bug has been fixed in build 2.6.1.0.
