Since it’s been quite a long time since the latest news about the project, it’s time to tell what is happening with him at the moment.
\nFirst of all, I want to apologize for the fact that I almost no one was responsible, and a little dropped out of the life of the project. The fact is that for a number of life circumstances, I had to return home to Astrakhan. I timed it to be a vacation, because it’s a big enough case. It was necessary to put my house in order, and there were other things to do. Well, I live now in the private sector, and the Internet here is not very good. Of course, I will soon solve the issue, but it is quite costly in financial terms, and after you leave and the home renovation is tight. But I will try to solve these issues in the near future, and return to normal communication with users.
\nNow directly about the project. During my vacation I finally managed to get a new version of the programming language in which the program is written with the help of friends “from abroad”. So far I’ve worked with the 2010 version, now I’ve got the latest version from 2018. And now I have a week to produce a migration project on it. Tasty in the new version a lot….
\nFirst, judging by the description of the changes, the work with multi-core processors and threads is optimized.
\nSecondly, full support for working with 64-bit OS is implemented.
\nThe rendering of visual components has been completely changed, and support for native widgets has been implemented.
\nThe list of supported operating systems has been expanded. And the best part of it is that OC Linux support for ARM processors is claimed. That is a very big chance that I will be able to run the program on Raspberry and similar boards. Well, this is a direct way to create inexpensive HMI operator panels (using FLProg Scada).
\nBut in view of such big changes, and the migration of the project is not as smooth as we wanted. In principle, the main and most difficult problems I have already solved, so that the transition will be, that’s for sure. There are, of course, a lot of small problems, but these are purely technical issues that require only time. I’m sure I’ll solve them.
\nI will try to release a trial beta with the number 5.0 by the end of the current watch so that you can get acquainted with the changes and test them. So stay tuned for more news of the project.<\/p>\n
