Hi all,

SDK applications using build 12 and earlier of the SDK have now been =
disabled. If you are running one of these applications, please shut it =
down now. A few of them seem to be repeatedly trying to log back in to =
the universe, which is putting unnecessary load on the server.

Upgrading to build 13 should be quick and painless. Please take a =
moment to do so.

Thanks,
Roland

Hi !

Speaking of versions, is there a way to find out there is a newer =
version of aw.dll available ? ( From the SDK )

Would be handy since not everyone can be expected to read this newsgroup =
:)

If so the 'bot'-developer could implement a check at for ex. startup and =
inform the user of the bot that a newer version is available ( or even =
download it and install it like the Aw-browser )

BTW, have you happen to see my 'aw_whisper method' posting ? :))

Finally, the SDK is a great thing, it's so fun being able to make bots =
oneself ! Really cool ! Many Tnx for that !

Hi Baggis,

no unfortunately I don't have a way yet for people to easily check what =
the current build of the SDK is...I'll need to come up with something, =
probably an additional universe attribute or something like that.

OK, but there is also a need to get the version from the aw.dll on the =
HD.

Maybe there already is ?

Hmmm... Think I didn't think all the way in my previous posting ?!?!

Instead of only an attribute maybe a method that would compare the local =
aw.dll version against the latest available ?

The local DLL version is provided by the #define AW_BUILD in the aw.h =
file. You'll know that AW_BUILD is the same as the DLL build if aw_init =
(AW_BUILD) returns 0, since aw_init() will fail if the build number =
passed in is not the same as the DLL's build number.

If there was a universe-level attribute available called say =
AW_UNIVERSE_SDK_BUILD, then you could easily make sure your you are up =
to date with something like the following code:

if (aw_init (AW_BUILD)) {
printf ("DLL version mismatch\n");
exit (1);
}

if (aw_create (0, 0, NULL)) {
printf ("Unable to create instance\n");
exit (1);
}

if (AW_BUILD < aw_int (AW_UNIVERSE_SDK_BUILD))
printf ("Note: There is a newer version of the SDK available.\n");
