scripts.dll 3.0 update [message #226616] |

Firstly, I am going to be shipping "scripts.dll 3.0 beta 2" to those who are beta testing 3.0 this weekend. I am still working hard to get 3.0 out the door...
Secondly, assuming nothing goes wrong with the switch, I plan to switch to Visual Studio 2005 for the scripts.dll/bhs.dll. More specifically, the free Visual C++ 2005 express edition.
I encourage anyone doing work with the dll to make the switch (a number of people already have).
If the dll breaks on Visual Studio 2003, I will accept any patches necessary to fix it.
The advantage of switching to VS2005 is that it produces better code. Plus, it has a 100% free (and legal) version that will hopefully be more than adequite to compile the scripts.dll.

VS2005 seems to be able to show the functions correctly so I would assume yes.
Let all your wishes be granted except one, so you will still have something to strieve for.

I can't remember of any problems with it, I've been using 2005 Express mostly, but have used 2003 for quite some time too...
[edit]
Nice to see it's all converted to 2005 (Express). I converted my scripts.dll source to 2005 a long time ago, but it is good that it will be the default and supported version now.
