• Translations Improvements

v2.0.7710.35866

Version 2.0.7710

WARNING

Due to a bug not discovered during the publication and preventing the startup after a new installation, it is recommended to first install version 2.0.4.0 to be able to configure and test the connection of WinNUT and then perform a manual update to take advantage of this version.

Consequently, this version has been requalified as "pre-release" and should therefore no longer be considered as a stable version.

This problem will be fixed in the next version.

Fix :

• Fixed an error generating a bad loading of the default parameters during the first launch following a new installation (without any version previously installed)
• Fix an error preventing the detection of certain updates if the name of the release does not include the revision version number

Added :

• Username and password are now stored in an encrypted way in registry. (issue #37)
  The conversion of old authentification data is automaticThe conversion of old authentication data is automatic at first launch of WinNUTs new version.
• Added FSD support that can be provided by NUT server.
  If the NUT server informs that it is initiating a Forced Shutdown, WinNUT will take this into account and initiate the shutdown process in the same way as if it determines that the conditions are required to do so.
  The option must be activated in the settings of WinNUT so that it takes into account the FSD signal (Follow FSD signal).

Changed :

• WinNUT is now distributed under the GNU GPL v3 license (and later).
• When an update is present, the Changelog window will indicate the Changelog content of each version (both stable and development) present between the currently installed version and the new version.
  In this way, it is easier to take into account all the evolutions / corrections applied from the installed version.

v2.0.7706 beta

Fix :

• App crash when disconnecting with null streams (Thanks to tgp1994) (Issue #48)
• Correction of a bad state of the Notify Icon Text when the return value of ups status is not only "OL" (Issue #45)
• Add -f parameter to force shutdown (Issue #46)
• Some modifications provided by tgp1994
• Fixed a bug that could occur when using a value of "0" for the grace period (thanks to jcsmook - pull requests #55)
• Fixed a bug generating an infinite connection / reconnection loop when the load value is retrieved to "0" during connection (thanks to jcsmook, pull requests #55)
• Correction of a code error causing the event time not to be updated in the logs.
• Fixed an error causing an unhandled exception when you do not want to apply the update immediately and the installation file already exists at the location specified for saving.
• In the case of a left click on the systray icon, WinNUT was restored to its original size and the context menu was opened at the same time.
  This behavior has been corrected and only the context menu opens.
  Restoring the WinNUT window to its original size is caused by a single or double click only.

Added :

• Addition of a directory containing the translations at the repository level.
  Makes it easier to submit a new translation (or correction) via a fork / pull request (nonPointer idea - issue #35)
• Translation of the "List UPS Variable's" interface (translation forgot during v2.0)

Changed :

• Some changes on how logs work (Thanks to tgp1994)
• Modification of the code to recover the power supply frequency of the UPS when it only provides the output frequency (modification made in response to an unsuccessful commit of pull requests #55 - problem encountered by jcsmook)
• Modification of the generated installer:
  - Addition of a custom image banner
  - Removal of the dependent Windows libraries installed in the WinNUT directory
• The update process is no longer based on the "changelog.txt" of the repository but on the list of releases via the GitHub APIs.
  This modification has been implemented to avoid reproducing issue #53.
  This modification also brings the possibility of receiving both stable and development updates for those who choose to follow the development channel (the more recent of the two being the proposed update).
• The changes made to the update process allow the implementation of a more suitable versioning of the type
  [Major Version].[Minor Version].[Automatic Build Version].[Automatic Revision Version]
• Complete syntax review of Changelog.txt file

v2.0.4.0

Added: EXPERIMENTAL - Connection function to the nut server with identification and password.
Fix : When the "Minimize to tray" option is disabled but the "Start Minimized" and "close to tray" options are active,
reducing or closing sends the application to the systray without the possibility of having access to the icon notification
Fix : When the name of the UPS in the parameters is incorrect, it is no longer possible to display the UPS variable information window.
Fix : Fixed a typo preventing shutdown at the end of the timeout
Fix/Added : When the name of the UPS in the parameters is incorrect, the connection is not established and a notification is displayed for 10 seconds.
Added : When the application is minimized in the systray and a change of connection state to the Nut server or a change of state of the UPS
occurs, a notification popup is displayed for 10 seconds.
Added : When the application is minimized without being sent to the systray (in task bar), the connection and battery status is displayed
in the text of the window in order to be quickly visualized when the application icon is hovered in the task bar.
Changed : The application icon has been modified to add an outline to the white shape in order to be visible when it is on a white background
Changed : The arrows of the icon displayed during reconnection are now in yellow to be more visible due to their small size.
Changed : The import of an old Ini file has been modified. The function is no longer automatic due to a problem with access rights to the
default installation directory. The import is now started manually from the File menu
Changed : The behavior of the extinction count progress bar has been corrected and behaves in a more fluid and consistent way
Changed : Restoring the main window from the notification icon only requires a single click (double click previously required)
