Plugin Modules
While browsing through my box collection labelled "Domotica" I found quite a few plug-in modules of all types... From now on they are living next to each other for a while, even though they are all competitors ;-) I wish there was one standard combining all the benefits, and leaving out the cons for a reasonable price (wishful thinking)
Upgrade AEON Z-Wave dongle
I just upgraded my AEON Labs Z-Wave dongle without problems, nothing noticeble changed except the fact that the LED stays on, and only blinks where there is data traffic, it helps to have less disco effects in my attic.
Take a look at the back if you have a EU or US version, download the corresponding update file, and make sure you have administrator rights on your windows system.
Follow the on screen instructions.

Release of Gambas 2.20
Here is a new release of the stable version. This release fixes a lot of bugs in the interpreter, the development environment, the GUI components... Most noteworthy are: * The Debian and Ubuntu packaging should work correctly now. * RDir() handles too long paths correctly. * The CR / NL input conversion flags is cleared when initializing a serial port. * Using gb.desktop made the interpreter crash at exit in some cases. * In gb.qt, TreeView.Count and ColumnView.Count now return the number of items in the view like in gb.gtk, not just the number of root items. * ComboBox now raises the Click event when it gets its first element, because that element is automatically selected. Beware that the two previous changes may introduce a little backward incompatibility in your projects! The full changelog then: [DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT] * BUG: Always correctly round control coordinates in the form editor when the form Scaled property is set. * BUG: Clicking on the "About component" button in the project property dialog cannot crash anymore. * BUG: Fix the packager for Debian and Ubuntu distributions. [INTERPRETER] * BUG: Never display newlines inside error message, the debugger does not like them. * BUG: Correctly detect out of memory errors when creating big arrays. * BUG: Use the system maximum path length constant, not ours. * BUG: Do not crash if a RDir() finds a too long path. * BUG: Fix string charset conversion routine API. * BUG: DateAdd() now does not fail anymore when substracting months up to January. * BUG: Allow a dynamic class to inherit a native static class without crashing.

[INFORMER] * BUG: Use the system maximum path length constant, not ours. [GB.DEBUG] * BUG: Use the system maximum path length constant, not ours. [GB.DESKTOP] * BUG: Prevent gb.desktop from being unloaded by the interpreter. Otherwise there is a risk that the libxtst library is unloaded before the libx11 library, which leads to a crash.

[GB.GTK] * BUG: Prevent a crash when creating an Image or a Picture with incorrect constructor arguments. * BUG: Move the window before showing it, so that it does not flicker. * BUG: When a modal window is running, only it can be closing from the window manager close button. * BUG: Popup menus now grab events correctly. * BUG: Store last event time for all low-level events, not just for mouse events. * BUG: Dialog.OpenFile does not use Dialog.Path as default file anymore if Dialog.Path is a directory. * BUG: Modal windows are really modal. * BUG: Try to prevent a possible crash in event management. * BUG: Fix the Key[] array accessor, so that it (almost) works like gb.qt. [GB.NET] * BUG: Clear the CR / NL input conversion flags when initializing a serial port. [GB.PDF] * BUG: PdfDocument.Find() now works correctly. * BUG: PDF indexes should be read correctly now. [GB.QT] * BUG: Setting MovieBox Path property to NULL does not fail anymore. * BUG: Do not try to reparent a window in its Show() method when it is already visible. * BUG: Remove debugging messages. * BUG: Fix a possible crash in the MovieBox class due to the previous changes. * BUG: TreeView.Count and ColumnView.Count now return the number of items in the view like in gb.gtk, not just the number of root items. * BUG: Ignore disabled tab when using the mouse wheel on TabStrip. * BUG: Some text alignment flags were not correctly detected. * BUG: The ComboBox now raises its click event when it gets its first element, because that element is automatically selected. * BUG: Fix an infinite recursion in previous commit.
