Change Release Notes

This release introduces an entire new EZ-Script compiler implementation. Behind the scenes the individual EZ-Script compilers from each control are now combined into one centralized manager. For example, if the speech recognition control compiler is executing a script, it is actually being executed in a centralized manager - this saves on resources and allows run-away scripts to be monitored by the Script Monitor.

The centralized manager can be monitored by the new Script Monitor control... Found in the Scripting category of ARC.

This doesn't seem like much of an upgrade, but it actually is quite a huge upgrade. There is also speed improvements to the way the EZ-Script compiler works.

  • new control Script Monitor (under Scripting)

Thank you Duck Juggernaut Sures( DJ Sures)! and now efficiency ! I can now hear my chatbot exclaim.. " Master Glen, it seems I have a runaway script, would you like me to recover it and put it into quarintine?" In all seriousness...Thanks so much

#2  

FYI. Adding the Script Monitor to my project causes an error in the EZ-Mobile App and crashes. Removed Script Monitor and I'm good again. Could just be me, but wanted to point it out for you.

Thanks Ant! That's good to know... The Android App hasn't been updated for it yet - so that could explain why. There will be an Android App update soon:)

#4  

Cool. I figured it'd be something like that. FYI, I'm really not picky but, I know you're small staffed so anytime I find an error I just post it up to help keep you informed. Loving all of the V3 support for the mobile app. It's fun to mess with until Roli shows up. Do you know if the plant is running again or are they still celebrating?

The plant started celebrating just this week and is done middle of February. We will be publishing a other video update with shipping dates in the next two weeks... Alan has taken a much needed vacation and Jason has been filling his shoes. They are both working 100% on rushing the final stages.:)

#6  

so when does dj take a vacation? lol. ive no doubts about your diligence. adding the v3 support to the mobile app has given me plenty to play with until my order arrives. the longer i wait, the better my plans:)

#7  

Duck Juggernaut is actually an underwater scuba-deathmetal band from Louisiana.

#8  

LOL too funny! That was not my intent to link the two! Merely my "attempt" at cheezy comedy regarding DJ 's love for ducks and Juggernaut "An overwhelming, advancing force that crushes or seems to crush everything in its path." ie DJ's work load!:)
