SplineTech VBS Debugger Version History

Version History

v8.49 - Jan 5, 2010

• Debugging Running Applications like WinCC is improved.

v8.47 - Jan 4, 2010

• Works with all Regional Settings, not only English(US)!

v8.46 - Jan 3, 2010

• While testing 8.45 I noticed the breakpoints not being set irregularly. This release fixed that.

v8.45 - Jan 2, 2010

• Runs without Administrator permissions on Windows 7, Vista and Server 2008 R2!
• Finally figured out how to make it run without "Run as an Administrator"

v8.44 - Dec 14, 2010

• List of steps is updated. Now it supports better reformatted (expanded) code.
• Also it shows the code line in the steps list right from the column it stopped on, making it easier to keep track of those lines in the lists step

v8.43 - Dec 09, 2010

• Each new file has it's own background tint, making it much easier to develop
• Each step you take is recorded in the steps list
• If the file is opened from local drive it is used instead of view source version, making it easier and simpler to edit the local files.

v8.40 - Sept 04, 2010

• Call stack shows function names instead of "Anonymous"

v8.38 - August 26, 2010

• Jump to current execution point
• Jump to line
• Pause in 5 seconds improved
• Debugging of more complex sites improved

v8.37 - July 26, 2010

• 3D icons and 3D hints added, improving user experience.
• On slower machines it takes longer time for the debugger to attach to IE.
  I used to have a delay parameter that mitigated that, but it wasn't obvious to people, so
• I made the debugger realize how long it takes to attach and adjust delay parameter automatically

v8.35 - June 23, 2010

• Debugging reformatted text is improved

v8.34 - April 29, 2010

• Debugging eval() code is improved

v8.32 - April 23, 2010

• This is a genius release
• Function list is improved in such a way that multiple threads are used when rapidly switching between the windows.
  • I could have used 1 thread, but I decided to use several, from purely computer science perspective this is a very advanced solution.
• Call stack is much improved:
  • Unless you didn't notice, the IE does not show the function names most of the time. Instead it shows JavaScript Anonymous Function all the time, which is useless.
  • What I did is to logically deduce the function name based from the function list that is generated and show that function name instead.
  • This helps debugging large code tremendously, because it adds visibility into the code and meaningful names into call stack.

v8.32 - April 23, 2010

• Function list is improved further.
• Now it is processed in a separate thread leading to no delay in opening large files
• It's further optimized

v8.31 - April 22, 2010

• Function list is improved further.
• It includes now shows a full tree of objects and functions inside them, which is pretty cool when you work with large unknown sources. Yahoo for that!

v8.30 - April 11, 2010

• Function list is improved
• It includes now prototype functions specified by "name: function" syntax
• It can be sorted by name and line number
• Reflects Expansion of the files

v8.28 - January 13, 2010

• Re run no longer requires prior stopping
• The browser can be safely closed

v8.27 - January 9, 2010

• Along the way a few access violations are solved related to the breakpoints between runs.

v8.26 - November 17, 2008

• This is a great release I am very glad to accomplish.
• It remembers the breakpoints between navigations and reloads of IE window, as long as the url to the js/html file (document) is the same between those reloads.
• Along the way a few access violations are solved related to the breakpoints between runs.

v8.25 - November 5, 2008

• Tab: number of spaces can be adjusted now
• Delay: delay parameter is ameliorated
• Resize splitter for the bottom part of docking site added

v8.24 - October 10, 2008

v8.21 - April 15, 2008

• Reformat Text added. Now you can debug AJAX controls with minimized source code.

• Call Stack supports expanded line numbers.
• It's just an amazing feature

v8.20 - April 10, 2008

• Pause in 3,5,10 seconds added.
• Now you have time to get in position before pausing occurs, so you can skip all useless and unrelated mouseover/mouseout and pause on the even that you actually need.
