GoFiler 5.5c
1.0 Legato Script Language Notes
This consolidates the latest version (1.2p) and the last version since Legato Basic was not released as part of 1.2o.
1.1 API Function Changes
Date Processing
– Corrected an issue with the StringToDate function using the SD_RFC-2822 format. If the day of the week was missing, it would result in an syntax error. The day of the week portion is now considered optional.
– Changed the format parameter on the StringToDate function from int to dword. This is only a semantic change since the parameter contains bitwise binary flags. Also changed the documentation to reflect the default value is SD_ISO_8601.
Logs
– Changed the return value of the LogSetMessageType function to return the previous message type value.
Unicode
– Updated the CharacterEntityToValue function to handle 24-bit Unicode characters.
– Updated the SGMLCharEntityToValue function to handle 24-bit Unicode characters.
– Updated the SGMLGetCharacterValue function to handle 24-bit Unicode characters.
Arrays (1.2p)
– Corrected an issue with using keynames as column specifications for FindInTable and SortTable functions.
– Improved error reporting for SortTable function.
1.2 New Menu Function Parameters
– Added templates to proof functions.
