What's new in Web Connection

Version 7.40

February 25th, 2024

• Move Web Connection Web Server to .NET 8.0
  Updated the Web Connection Web Server to run the latest version of .NET Core 8.0. This brings up the version to the latest .NET Runtime which also boasts a number of performance and resource usage improvements. The Web Connection Web Server can be used standalone and can be shipped with your application to run locally on client machines and it effectively allows you to deploy 'local' Web applications, as well as supporting running efficiently inside of IIS in a Windows Server environment.

• Add .NET Hosting Bundle Runtime Installer
  Adding a .NET runtime installer - DotnetRuntimeInstaller.exe that can quickly install the .NET Hosting Bundle required to run the Web Connection Web Server. Checks to see if already installed and if not optionally downloads and installs the required version. Can also download the .NET 8.0 Desktop runtime via the -desktop command line switch. This installer is automatically called from Setup if choosing the Web Connection Web Server. Effectively this automates the .NET Runtime installation if you choose to use the Web Connection .NET Web Server for local development (recommended). As a reminder this server is self-contained and you manually start it as part of your Launch() sequence to run your app locally.

• wwRestProcess::InitTokenSession Bearer Token via wwSession Support
  Added a custom wwSession implementation that can be used to generate Bearer Token ids that are tied to a wwSession instance and can be validated via Bearer Tokens in the Authorization: Bearer <token> headers.

• wwRestProcess::Authenticate Authorization via Bearer Tokens
  Added support for authenticating users via Bearer Token authentication and tying it to wwUserSecurity. Authenticate can run in Signin, Validation and Signout modes and by default maps to standard Web Connection UserSecurity user management.

• wwJsonSerializer Deserialization Performance Improvements
  Optimized the .NET parsing of the deserialized object graph for improved performance. Also fixed a few small issues that previously could result in naming conflicts that FoxPro couldn't deal with. Fixed a small issue with UTC dates when AssumeUtcDates (ie. passthrough as-is dates) is set.

• wwJsonServiceClient CallService Url Fix up
  You can now use a site relative URL by specifying a cServiceBaseUrl before calling CallService() which allows you to use site relative paths for the URL. You can use Urls like /authenticate which makes it easier to switch between different host sites. If the URL does not start with http:// or http://, the cServiceBaseUrl is prepended to the URL to create a full URL. This is useful if you switch between different sites such as running against different servers for dev, staging and production servers.

Version 7.35

November 15th, 2023 • Release Post • Breaking Changes

• wwDotnetBridge: Improved support for Task Exception Handling
  When making calls to .NET async or Task methods, wwDotnetBridge now does a better job of handling exceptions and returning the result in the OnError() callback. More errors are handled and error messages should be more consistent with the actual error (rather than a generic error and an innerException).

• Updated to latest .NET Newtonsoft.Json Library for Json Serialization
  We've updated the .NET JSON parsing library to ensure continued compatibility with the latest .NET versions widely used. It's been a while since the last update, and v13.0.3 has been in circulation now for quite a while and this gets us up to date with the latest performance and parsing improvements of Newtonsoft's JSON library. This is a potentially breaking change: Make sure to update the Newtonsoft.json.dll and wwDotnetBridge.dll in your projects.

• wwJsonServiceClient: Optionally capture Request and Response Data You can now optionally capture all request and response data via the lSaveRequestData flag. If set any POSTed JSON data will be capture in cRequestData and any result data is capture in cResponseData both of which are useful for debugging.

• wwJsonServiceClient is abstracted into its own PRG File
  wwJsonServiceClient now has migrated out of the wwJsonSerializer.prg file to its own wwJsonServiceClient.prg file. This is a minor breaking change - you'll need to make sure DO wwJsonServiceClient is called explicitly now to ensure the library is loaded along with all dependencies.

• UpdateNoComRegistration Module Configuration for bypassing COM Registration on Publish
  Added this switch to allow bypassing COM registration when uploading and hotswapping new binaries to the server. This switch can be useful if you're using the same server for multiple Web Connection installs, especially when publishing file based projects that are used in tandem with COM based instances.

• Fix: COM Server Publish Servers not Reloading
  Fixed issue where COM server uploads and restarts would not work correct

• Fix: Stop wwDotnetBridge from Attempting to Serialize Non-FoxPro Objects
  wwDotnetBridge now checks for COM objects and components and won't serialize those objects rather than attempting and failing. FoxPro's AMEMBERS() can't reliably retrieve properties from COM objects so rather than getting an incomplete object, or worse a crash due to non-properties being access, we now serialize null for COM objects.

Breaking Changes in 7.35

• Make sure to update Newtonsoft.Json.dll and wwDotnetBridge.dll in your Projects
  The two dlls are linked to each other and so they always need to stay in sync in order for JSON serialization to work consistently. Needed if you use JSON deserialization using wwJsonSerializer, or you're building API Web projects.

Version 7.32

April 5th, 2023 • Release Post

• GetUrlEncodedKeyCollection() to retrieve all QueryString and ServerVariables
  You can use this new method to create collection from a set of Url encoded key value pairs, such as those found in the .cQueryString and .cServerVariables properties as well as explicitly Url encoded strings.

• wwDotnetBridge COM Array Support for Lists, Dictionaries, Collections
  Added support for direct access of all sorts of collections directly in ComArray instances which are returned for collection results from InvokeMethod(), and GetProperty() or when creating lists. You can now access List<T> and Dictionary<TKey, TValue> collections directly with ComArray, via Item(), AddItem(), RemoveItem() etc. All methods have been updated to work with IList, IDictionary, ICollection, Array and IEnumerable with support for numeric indexes or key or value lookups.

• Auto-Fixup of ComArray for Instance Parameters in all Intrinsic Methods
  You can now pass ComArray instances directly as the first loInstance parameter for most intrinsic invocation methods like InvokeMethod(), GetProperty(), SetProperty() etc. Thanks to Christof Wollenhaupt for this improvement and bug fix around a regression error related to the new list and dictionary support. wwDotnetBridge #27

• ComArray.Add() method to complement AddItem()
  There's now a ComArray.Add() method that performs the same task as AddItem() but provides better native compatibility with .NET collection syntax (ie. List.Add(loItem)). This method only supports a single parameter used for Lists and non-dictionary collections. For dictionaries with keys use AddDictionaryItem() to an item with a key.

• wwJsonSerializer no longer uses PropertyExclusionList on EMPTY Object
  When serializing EMPTY objects, or by association cursors and collections which internally use EMPTY objects, the PropertyExclusionList is not applied to properties. The list is meant to keep FoxPro default properties from polluting the output JSON, but EMPTY objects do not have any base properties, so the list is not necessary. This allows for creating properties with reserved FoxPro property names like Comment, Name, Classname etc.

• Fix: wwJsonSerializer::AssumeUtcDates Output still converting to Local
  Fixed issue that when this flag was set, it would not convert the inbound date from local to UTC but use the current date as UTC, but it would still convert the date back to local when deserializing. This change now leaves the deserialized date in the original UTC time, but returns it as a local FoxPro time (ie. the date is not adjusted for timezone) which was the original assumption of this flag. This was broken when we switched from FoxPro based parsing to .NET parsing using JSON.NET. This is a potentially breaking change if you used this obscure flag in your code.

Version 7.30

October 25th, 2022

• Improved Support for .NET Core in wwDotnetBridgeCore
  Improved runtime discovery logic for wwDotnetCoreBridge. Fixed GetDotnetVersion() to show .NET Core version.

• wwDotnetBridge: GetwwDotnetCoreBridge() and InitializewwDotnetCoreBridge()
  Added these helper functions to load the .NET Core Runtime of wwDotnetBridge and caching the runtime in the same way that the Full Framework versions of these functions do.

• wwCookie and Response.AddCookie() Default Changes
  Made default cookie handling more secure by adding HttpOnly to the default settings. Also added samesite=strict; to the default when explicitly creating a cookie. The wwCookie::Init() constructor now can set the name and value ie.: CREATEOBJECT("wwCookie","name","value")

Version 7.28

June 12th, 2022

• Added wwJsonSerializer::DefaultEmptyDate Property
  Added DefaultEmptyDate property to wwJsonSerializer to allow you set a predefined date value for empty dates since JSON doesn't have the notion of the empty date. The default date uses JavaScript's default zero date which 1970-1-1 which was the previous value set by default and couldn't be overridden.

• Fix: wwJsonService UTF-8 Encoding/Decoding
  Fixed inconsistencies in UTF-8 encoding by the service client. Now data sent is encoded and data received is decoded. Optional parameters allow disabling this auto en/decoding.

Breaking Changes in 7.28

• wwJsonServiceClient fixes UTF-8 decoding by default
  There was a bug that caused wwJsonServiceClient to not decode UTF-8 content automatically, which would result in extended characters in deserialized values and objects to be misformatted. In 7.27 content now is UTF-8 decoded by default and you can disable the auto-decoding via the lNoUtfDecoding=.T. to keep the old behavior.

Version 7.26

January 18th, 2022 • Release Post • Breaking Changes

• JSON Server Status
  The Web Connection Handler and Web Connection Web Server now have a dedicated AdministrationJson.wc link you can use to retrieve server configuration information as JSON. The result includes all the server configuration settings as well as information about the running server similar to the main Administration.wc page.

• Web Connection Web Server now runs on .NET 6.0
  Updated the local Web Connection Web Server to run on the newly released .NET 6.0 which improves performance and provides a number of useful enhancements to the local web server operation. .NET 6.0 is an LTS release. This is a breaking change that requires that .NET Core 6.0 is installed.

• Add Performance Counters back to Web Connection Server
  The .NET Core Web Server now display CPU usage for server instances on the Middleware Administration page. This was previously not working.

• Better Error Handling for REST Service Invalid URLs
  Invalid REST Routes - ie. referencing a missing method in a REST Service - now returns an HTTP 404 error. The error message now also describes the error better as Missing endpoint method: MethodName.

• wwJsonSerializer::MapPropertyName()
  Method that allows you to map an individual property name to a new name. This allows you to map names to values that standard FoxPro property serialization would not normally allow for such as property names with spaces or special characters. Similar to PropertyNameOverrides in behavior but with more control.

• Automatically clear wwSql Named Parameters before new command executes
  Automatically clear SQL parameters set on the last command, before executing the next command, unless lNoParameterReset is explicitly set to avoid this. This removes the need to explicitly clear parameters when running multiple commands on a single instance/connection. This was previously implemented but lacked the lNoParameterReset flag to allow to keep parameters for multiple commands for unusual use cases where the same command is run many times in a row. Note parameters are cleared before the next command runs not when the original command has completed, so you can review parameters and also receive out parameters.

• Fix: Issue with Live Reload Requests not Firing on IIS
  Fixed issue where hitting a link on IIS/IISEXPRESS occasionally would not work when LiveReload was enabled. Fixed by ensuring the output stream is properly disposed before writing the injected reload script.

• Fix wwSftp::OnFtpBufferUpdate() to allow Cancelling Downloads and Uploads
  Fix OnFtpBufferUpdate() for wwSftp so it now works to provide to check for the lDownloadCancelled flag on a passed in loSftp instance when set. Previously this flag was ignored.

• Fix: ExpandTemplate with _Layout Pages not reading Base Path correctly
  Fixed issue where wwPageResponse.ExpandTemlate() was not correctly setting the Web site base path resulting in empty layout pages to be rendered. This in turn resulted in empty pages. Fixed.

Breaking Changes in 7.26

• NewtonSoft.Json.dll needs to be Updated
  We've updated the .NET JSON serializer to the latest version 13.0.1 in Web Connection and if you're using the REST API Process classes or using the JSON Serializer in any way make sure to update this DLL in your application folder or DeserializeJson() might fail.

• Web Connection Web Server now uses .NET Core 6.0
  The optional West Wind Web Connection local Web Server now uses .NET 6.0 to support the latest LTS release of the .NET Core Runtime. To use this local Web Server you'll need to make sure that .NET Core 6.0 SDK or .NET Core 6.0 Hosting Bundle is installed.

Version 7.25

October 1st, 2021 • Breaking Changes

• Improved wwSmtp Error Reporting (.NET mode)
  wwSmtp now reports error information using the base exception rather than the top level exception which provides more info for connection level errors such as socket connect failures or invalid connection information/domain names.

• Improved access to HTTP and Serializer functionality in wwJsonServiceClient
  Refactored the wwJsonServiceClient to always create the the .oHttp and .oSerializer properties on startup. These objects allow customization of the HTTP request and JSON Serializer respectively. A new AddHeader() method is a shortcut method to make HTTP Header access more discoverable.

• wwEncryption::ComputeHash() BinHexMode parameter
  Added a parameter that lets you specify the output format as binHex optionally which is a double character representation of each byte in the result hash. The default format is base64 and the llUseBinHex flag optionally overrides to let you use binHex. If the parameter is not specificied the global SetBinHexMode() setting is used instead.

• Refactored wwEncryption::EncryptString()/DecryptString()
  These methods now let you choose the crypto provider (TripleDES and AES), the cipher mode, IV (for various ciphers) and optional key hashing modes. You can also set the binHex mode optionally.

• wwUtils: ShowJson() Function
  Added a new ShowJson() function in wwUtils that shows the content of the string in the configured JSON editor (typically VS Code). Also update the ShowHtml, ShowXml methods to output UTF-8 files that are then rendered from disk to avoid garbage characters otherwise shown.

Breaking Changes in 7.25

• NewtonSoft.Json.dll needs to be Updated
  We've updated the .NET JSON serializer to the latest version 13.0.1 in Web Connection and if you're using the REST API Process classes or using the JSON Serializer in any way make sure to update this DLL in your application folder or DeserializeJson() might fail.

Version 7.22

August 6th, 2020

• wwRequest::QueryStringMultipleCollection()
  This new method retrieves multiple values (multi-select) for a single key in a query string.

• Add support for AES Encryption in wwEncyrption Class
  You can now use AES encryption optionally instead of the default TripleDES encryption previously supported for the EncryptString() and DecryptString() methods. You can now also create encrypted content that does not encode the provided encryptionKey with MD5 (as is common) and instead uses the raw encryption key to allow matching encrypted content generated by tools other than this method.

• wwJsonSerializer::DeserializeCursor()
  New helper function that wraps Deserialize() and CollectionToCursor() which deserializes into a cursor/table that's already open to provide the data structure to import to.

• Local User Credentials for SMTP Emails
  Added support for a special LOCALACCOUNT username value that can be used to specify to use the logged on user's Windows credentials for SMTP server access. Note this is unusual and typically only works for internal servers running Exchange or other Managed Mail platforms using Windows Domain Accounts for access.

Version 7.20

March 16th, 2021
Release Notes • Breaking Changes

• Web Connection Web Socket Support
  Web Connection now supports basic Web Socket functionality that allows capturing Web Socket requests in an OnWebSocket() process class handler, as well as broadcasting messages to all connected Web sockets. Using a custom message format and a hybrid WebSocket and HTTP protocol it's possible for FoxPro to easily use Web Connection hosted Web Sockets to use two-way messaging. We provide a JavaScript westwind-websocket.js library for the client and a Web Connection Web Socket message class to create and send messages, as well as a wwProcess class OnWebSocket() handler method that can be overridden to intercept Web Socket messages in Web Connection FoxPro code.

• Consolidated Web Connection Administration Page: Administration.wc
  Web Connection now has a single built-in administration that doesn't need to be explicitly distributed with an application. This page consolidates both the core Web Connection Module operations as well as most wwMaint operations that operate on the Web Connection server. The single page consolidates all functionality to a more user-friendly single page, and uses a single authentication experience and removes the need for distributing Admin.aspx or similar page.

• Admin Page Updates
  The Administration.wc admin page now includes an Edit button when running on the local machine under an Interactive account. If you use IIS Express, or the Web Connection Web Server you can now directly jump into editing the configuration for the appropriate configuration file.

• wwDotnetCoreBridge .NET 5.0 Support
  We've updated wwDotnetCoreBridge - the version of wwDotnetBridge that works with .NET Core - so that it now works with .NET (Core) 5.0. This is in addition to support for .NET Core 3.1. This update fixes some issues due to framework changes in 5.0 so make sure to update wwipstuff.dll and wwDotnetBridge.dll for existing installs.

• New wwProcess::OnRouting() handler
  New routing override hook method that allows you to customize process class routing which usually maps to a method in the process class or a page on disk to render. This mechanism intercepts the routing process before Web Connection's routing runs and lets you check for custom route conditions and call a Process method in response if the route matches. Very useful to allow re-using existing authentication functionality for without having to copy and create new process classes, or for handling static content that needs to be authenticated. The big benefit is that you can re-use a single process class's configuration.

• New wwHttp::AddPostFile() Method
  Added an explicit method that lets you add File Upload POST data for multi-part form based uploads. This is just a specialized version of the AddPostKey() method provided to make it explicit when uploading a file as part of form POST operation and to simplify the documentation.

• WWC_LOGGING_MAX_CONTENT_SIZE Compilation Flag
  This flag allows you to control the max Request and Response size to log when using Full Request or Request and Response logging. This allows you to control the size of the output captured to be limited in case of file up or downloads that may be very large. The default is 50,000.

• Fix: Large Number JSON Result Values
  Fixed issue with large number rounding errors that would break JSON serialization. Caused by numeric overflows in FoxPro's value to string conversions, fixed by explicitly rounding down numbers to the SET DECIMAL setting.

• Fix: Request.GetCurrentUrl() with Ports and HTTPS
  Fix problem with https:// requests that have custom ports not showing the HTTP scheme properly. Fixed.

Breaking Changes in 7.20

• Web Connection Web Server now uses .NET Core 5.0
  To provide support for the most current version of .NET the Web Connection local dev server now uses .NET Core 5.0. To use this local Web Server you'll need to make sure that .NET Core 5.0 SDK or .NET Core Runtime and ASP.NET Core Runtime are installed.

Version 7.15

August 2nd, 2020 • Release Notes • Breaking Changes

• New Log Formats
  You can now configure the Web Connection wwWebRequestLog via a new nLogFormat configuration setting: 0 - No Logging, 1 - Minimal Request (URL only, no request or response output saved), 2 - Full Request (saves server vars and POST data but not Response), 3 - Request and Response (saves everything). The setting can be set in yourApp.ini via LogFormat=3 or using Server.oConfig.nLogFormat. This replaces the now obsolete logging compiler flag which allows the log levels to be changed at runtime, without recompilation. The format also removes the SaveRequestFiles setting which is now equivalent to logging with LogFormat=3.

• Updated Recent Request Viewer
  The Last Request Viewer has been updated to use the log information from the wwRequestLog table. The viewer has been updated with a new UI that shows the last 35 requests (can be changed). You can now quickly browse through multiple requests and not just the last one as the data is captured in the wwRequestLog table and loaded from there. For best log action during development set LogFormat=3 - other formats show a note and recommend to use this format.

• Change over to Build.ps1 from Build.bat for Project Packaging Script
  Updated the Web Connection packaging build script to use Powershell to create a more generic script that is more portable. The build script packages the EXE, INI, dependent DLLs, a cleaned up Web folder (minus compiled files) and the data folder to provide a single zip file. Requires a 7Zip installation.

• Start-FoxPro-IDE-in-Project.ps1 Script
  To make it easier to generically launch the Web Connection development environment for a project the new project now generates a Start-FoxPro-IDE-in-Project.ps1 Powershell script. This is in addition to the shortcut which also works in the project folder, but breaks if the project is moved. The Powershell script always works as it can use relative paths, rather than the required full paths in the Shortcut. You can just Run with Powershell to launch your project in the FoxPro IDE.

• Session Cookies are set with SameSite=Strict Policy
  Session cookies in Web Connection now use HttpOnly and SameSite=Strict policy to work around tracking requirements by Web browsers. Using strict forces the cookie to be confined to the originating site which means it's not shared with external services ensuring that data is kept private and preventing cross site scripting attacks.

• wwCookie now defaults to SameSite=Strict Policy
  As with Session Cookies, the default wwCookie class which can be used to create new cookies default to SameSite=Strict in order to comply with privacy requirements by default. If you need to share cookies with calling sites you can explicitly override the .SameSite property.

• Server Hot Swapping File Uploads also Upload a DLL file if available
  The two hotswapping routines now also upload a DLL file of the UpdateExe file, if that DLL file exists. This is to support VFP 10 build applications which are made up of a small loader EXE and the natively compiled FoxPro dll.

• wwDotnetBridge support for non-Property Indexers in GetPropertyEx()
  You can now access Indexed properties ([0] or ["name"]) without requiring a property as part of the property name. So you can now do: loBridge.GetValueEx(loDataRow,'["name"]') for example.

• Fix: JSON Date Formatting Rounding Issue
  Fixed a bug where dates from cursors would not show the exact second/millisecond format with a float rounding error. Reworked the Json conversion function to adjust date explicitly to UTC format and then using TTOC(ldDate,3) instead.

Breaking Changes in 7.15

• Must update wwDotnetBridge.dll
  wwDotnetBridge has some important fixes and a few additional helpers that are used by some of the libraries - specifically wwJsonSerializer which break when used with the older DLL.

• wwRequestLog Structure Changes
  The wwRequestLog has a few changes in fields so if you're using FoxPro tables, delete the wwRequestLog table and let it recreate. For SQL Server remove the table and use the Console SQL Log Table creation Wizard to let it recreate or use the Westwind.sql template script on an existing database.

• Recommended: Set the LogFormat
  The new LogFormat property is used to control logging. The default format is 1 - Minimal Request. But for local development it's often useful to set this to 3 - Request and Response so you can easily review requests and the output generated while debugging.

Version 7.13

May 29th, 2020

• Request.GetServerName() now Returns Port Information
  In light of using IIS Express and the Web Connection Web Server which are using local port numbers as part of the URL, Reqest.GetServerName() has been updated to return domain names with the port if not port 80 or 443. It now returns localhost:5200 for example or localhost:7000. This also fixes Request.ResolveServerUrl() when generating URLs for sites that are using port numbers.

• Request.IsLinkSecure() now checks the HTTPS server variable
  Previously IsLinkSecure() was checking explicit port numbers, but in recent IIS and ASP.NET Core versions an explicit HTTPS variable is available to determine precise status on whether a request is using a secure connection. This also fixes Process.ResolveServerUrl() losing the https prefix for URL generated.

• wwUtils ExecuteCommandLine()
  Added a new command line execution command that makes it easier to execute external executables using ShellExecute. Simplified syntax to take a single command line as string. Supports OS path resolution also works with Application Protocols

• Administration Script Compilation Improvements
  The new Administration.wc admin page now includes script compilation in the Logging and Server Administration section of the administration page. The script compiler now takes an extension or a comma delimited list of multiple extensions that can be used to recompile scripts in the application.

• wwDotnetBridge::ToString()
  Added a helper method to reliably return the result from .NET's internal .ToString() method. ToString() tends to be overloaded and so is not directly accessible on most via COM interop. This helper ensures it'll work on all .NET types.

• Fix: Console Execution fails when not running out of Web Connection Install Folder
  Fix issue with the Console application failing when started from within a project folder rather than the Web Connection root. Updated so that path is changed to the install root so all dependencies are found. This fixes a few odd problems like console files not being found and an errant wconnect.fxp file being created.

• Fix: Web Connection Web Server Cookie Processing Bug in ASP.NET Core
  Work around an ASP.NET Core bug that incorrectly formats the raw cookie string of a request by explicitly rewriting all cookies using the proper format.

Version 7.12

April 29th, 2020 • Release Notes

• Console Update Project Resources Helper
  Added a new UPDATEPROJECTRESOURCES Console Command that can be used to update an existing project with the resources from an updated Web Connection installation. This updates the Web Connection Modules, the Web Connection Web Server, Web Connection dependent Dlls (wwDotnetBridge, wwipstuff, json), the stock libraries, the Web Connection support scripts. Also added this to the main Console Form as UI operation that prompts for project path and operations to perform. This should make much easier to update existing project with the latest bits from a Web Connection.

• Template Updates
  Updated the stock Web Connection page templates to the latest builds of Bootstrap and FontAwesome. Also simplified some dependencies reducing script count.

• Feature Parity for .NET Core Web Connection Web Server
  The new .NET Core based, standalone Web Connection Web Server is now 99% compatible with the classic ASP.NET handler so these two servers can be used interchangeably without feature differences. For development, the Web Connection server is very light weight and command line driven and can be automated easily.

• Linux Support for new Web Connection Web Server
  Because the new Web Connection Web Server runs .NET Core, it can also run on Linux which makes it possible to run the Web Connection Web Server on a Linux machine. Note that FoxPro still has to run on Windows but the server interface can run on a Linux box and push message files into a shared file location that both the Linux server and Web Connection Server application can access.

• New wwServer::ProcessHitBinary()
  Due to problems with encoding in ASP.NET Core related to Unicode string conversions there's now a new ProcessHitBinary() method on the server that receives a BLOB as input for request data, and returns BLOB data for output. This leaves all the string decoding and encoding predictably to the FoxPro end and lets the COM server simply process the raw binary data directly. This also removes an extra conversion and should remove some additional memory usage that previously was required for the Unicode string conversion. Both the ASP.NET Handler and .NET Core Middleware now call this method. This is a breaking change that requires that webconnectionmodule.dll and wwServer.prg are updated in sync as the new method is required..

• wwUtils IsDotnetCore() Helper
  Support function that checks if .NET Core is installed. Returns the highest version number.

• wwWebServer::IsWebServerInstalled()
  Helper function that checks to see if the given Web Server type is installed and ready for configuration. Use the standard Web Server keys ("IIS","IISEXPRESS","WEBCONNECTIONWEBSERVER", "APACHE") to check if a given Web Server is installed. Internally used by the Console.

• wwDotnetBridge Constructor Support for Structs
  Fix ability to instantiate .NET struct types which now are returned as ComValue instances.

• wwDotnetBridge Instances can now pass ComValue instances as Parameters
  You can now pass ComValue instances to InvokeMethod(), SetProperty() and GetProperty() so that you can invoke functionality on objects that are otherwise not accessible in FoxPro. When you pass ComValue for the loInstance parameter, wwDotnetBridge automatically uses the Value property.

Breaking Changes in v7.12

• Update webconnectionmodule.dll and wwServer.prg due to ProcessHitBinary() Change
  The new binary transfer functionality in this version is a major breaking change that requires that both the webconnectionmodule.dll and the Web Connection framework (and more specifically wwServer.prg and wwServer::ProcessHitBinary()) are synced. The module now calls this new ProcessHitBinary() method in wwServerServer interface so this method has to exist and it didn't in older versions. In turn this also adds the method to the COM interface, so make sure to re-register your server when updating applications on your servers.

Version 7.10

March 10th, 2020 • Release Notes

• Preview: Local .NET Core Development Server
  We've added a new local, self-contained, .NET Core based Web server that can be used instead of IIS to develop your Web Connection applications locally and also in production (on IIS). This new server uses .NET Core 3.x and can generically run the Web Server from the command line. Advantages are: Pre-configured for Web Connection, all configuration in one place, non-Admin, runs from the command line, can run any Web Connection application out of a folder. It's now also possible to run the Web Connection Web Server (in File Mode) on Linux or Docker with Web Connection FoxPro Server running on a separate Windows machine.

• Support for Non-Admin Console Operations
  If you're creating new non-IIS using IIS Express projects or the new Web Connection Web Server, you can now do so without running as Administrator assuming you're installing into a folder where you have permissions to write. You still get an Admin request warning, but you now can continue to install.

• Update Module/Middleware Administration Page
  Number of cleanups on the Module/Middleware Administration pages for Web Connection with easier updates to items and a cleaner view of which mode (COM or File) is active. Also additional system information and updates are provided to make it easier to see relevant data all in one place.

• Add wwCookie Class for Response.AddCookie() improvements
  Added a new wwCookie class to make it cleaner to add cookies with all of the available HTTP Cookie features that are available. Rather than passing a ton of parameters to Response.AddCookie() you now can pass an object with simple properties set.

• Windows Authentication for Web Connection Server Requests
  Previously Web Connection server requests using the built-in Windows based authentication used only Basic Authentication. We've now enabled Windows Authentication so you can use either Windows or Basic or both. This also means you can now run with only Windows Authentication enabled in your Web Site as both the ASP.NET requests and Web Connection requests can authenticate with it.

• Simplify Live Reload Configuration
  Added new WebConnectionModule that handles .htm and .html LiveReload script injection when LiveReload is enabled. This removes the need to explicitly enable an extra handler for these extensions. The module automatically detects whether live reload is enabled and only injects content into HTML files when enabled. This simplifies configuration to the single LiveReloadEnabled flag in web.config. The WebConnectionModule is automatically configured for new projects.

• Add Live Reload Retry
  When sitting on a page and shutting down the Web Server the Web Socket disconnects and after that the page previously would no longer refresh on changes. This update continues pinging for a Web Socket every few seconds after failure to try and reconnect to the server. This allows for server updates/shutdowns and reconnecting after the server comes back.

• Fix: Live Reload Socket for Https Requests
  Fix issue where Live Reload was failing in the browser when running on an HTTPS page. Page would work but browser would console log an error in the WebSocket Live Reload script. Fixed and you can now use https.

• New wwDotnetBridge.InvokeTaskMethodAsync() to call Async .NET Methods
  Added a new method to make it easier to call async .NET methods that return Task or Task<T> results. This method takes a callback handler object reference that is called on completion or failure of the method call. Similar to InvokeMethodAsync() which calls non-async methods asynchronously but natively intercepts the Task result and fires events on completion.

• SftpFile::IsDirectory Property
  Added a new IsDirectory property to the SftpFile object returned in the sftp::FtpListFiles() method to simplify figuring out whether an entry is a file or directory.

• Log Server User Account
  We now log the server user account in Web Connection FoxPro server requests in the request log. This can be useful to ensure you can see which account your FoxPro server is running under.

• Fix: Perf Counter Permissions
  Trap errors in Web Connection Module Server list related to PerfCounter access - if access is not allowed, perf-counters are turned off.

Breaking Changes in v7.10

• LiveReload Configuration Change for web.config
  If using LiveReload you will need to change the configuration to use the new WebConnectionModule. Using the new module removes the need to add/remove the old handler when switching modes - it now works off the LiveReloadEnabled flag internally so you only have to set one setting.

  Remove old Handler:

  <handlers>
     <add name=".LiveReload_StaticHtml_wconnect-module" path="*.htm*" verb="*" type="Westwind.WebConnection.WebConnectionHandler,WebConnectionModule" />
     ... leave additional handlers
  </handlers>
  

    **Add new Handler**:  
    
    ```xml
    <modules>
      <add name="WebConnectionModule" type="Westwind.WebConnection.WebConnectionModule,WebConnectionModule"/>
    </modules>

• wwRequestLog has Structure Changes
  Please make sure you delete the request log (wwRequestLog.dbf by default) or add an account v(15) field to the table. Latest version detects if the field is missing and automatically deletes the table and creates a new one otherwise.

Version 7.09

October 22nd, 2019

• Preview: Local .NET Core Web Server Support
  We've added a self contained .NET Core Web server that can run standalone without a Web Server installed, or as a backend service inside of IIS. The server can be run from the command line and has a number of options, including automatic support for Live Reloading of content. You do need to have .NET Core 3.0 installed. This is currently in preview and there's no explicit configuration support and all info on how to use this new server both for development and behind IIS is described in the documentation topic.

• Preview: .NET Core 3.0 Support with wwDotnetCoreBridge
  wwDotnetBridge allows interop with .NET and now there's basic support for .NET Core. r wwDotnetCoreBridge allows loading and executing of .NET Core components. As with the full framework version, wwDotnetCoreBridge hosts its own copy of the .NET Core runtime and then proxies into it create types and values that make it possible to access most .NET Core features from Visual FoxPro.

• Add Edit Button to Web Connection Status Form
  Added an edit button that makes it easy to open the site in an editor. There's a new CodeEditorCommandLine that can be used to launch an editor in the Web Site or the full project so you can quickly jump to editing the site. The default editor assumes VS Code (code ..\).

• Fix: Error Message Code Display
  Fixed error message code display to be properly HTML encoded. If the code contained HTML to generate the error display would render the HTML. Fixed with proper HTML encoding so the code displays properly as code.

• Fix: wwDotnetBridge Guid Results and Properties
  Changed behavior of wwDotnetBridge methods that return Guid values or accss Guid Properties. Guids are value types and fixed up by wwDotnetBridge, but previously used the obsolete ComGuid type. This has been changed to use the standard ComValue type and the GetGuid() method. So a method that returns a Guid returns a ComValue, as does a Guid property accessed with GetProperty().

Breaking Changes in 7.09

• ComGuid Class Retired for Guid Handling
  Any wwDotnetBridge code that previously access Guid values, now uses the ComValue helper, which includes GetGuid(), SetGuid() and NewGuid() helper methods. This is a breaking change, but provides better compatibility with all other special handling types which also use the ComValue class.

Version 7.08

September 3rd, 2019

• Simplified Live Reload Configuration
  Refactored the way that Live Reload is hooked up to a 2 step process: Set the EnableLiveReload switch and - for optional HTML file processing - enable the LiveReload Html Handler that intercepts requests to any .html and .htm files. This simplifies the configuration process which previously required adding a custom module and setting runManagedModulesForAllRequests which had performance implications. See docs for more info on the new configuration features.

• Visual Studio 2019 Addin Async Loading Enabled
  Updated the Visual Studio addin to support async loading so the addin no longer shows load warnings on startup.

• Fix JSON Handling for Large Strings and JSON Buffers
  JSON size is limited by the FoxPro 16 meg limit, but due to the inefficiencies of JSON generation presizing a buffer the JSON string parser uses an overly pessimistic pre-sized buffer to hold JSON text that is passed to internal APIs. Changed the logic to maximize the buffer size at FoxPro's Max string size and handle errors if the buffer is overrun more gracefully. This will allow JSON string parsing up to the FoxPro 16 meg limit now where as before it was of the potential max buffer size.

• Fix AppPool Creation Bug in New Installations
  Fix bug where application pools in IIS weren't properly attached to the newly created sample site on first creation.

• Cleanup Startup Launch.prg Handling
  After setup and new project Launching now clearly shows what it's doing with messages to the desktop, so you new users can effectively re-run the application without having to look in the docs. DO LAUNCH always shows options now.

Version 7.06

May 25th, 2019
Release Notes Blog Post • Breaking Changes

• Server Live Reload for Server Code Changes
  7.0 introduces updated Live Reload functionality without using Browser Sync. Rather there's now native support for live reloading in the Web Connection .NET Module. Live reload detects changes in Web client pages as well as server source code files. On the client changes are detected and immediately refresh the browser when saved. On the server changes are detected causing the Web Connection server to be shut down and restarted plus refreshing the browser. Note: This feature requires Windows 10 or Server 2012R2+ to work

• Consolidated Launch.prg Behavior
  Combined various Launch and Environment setup options into a single launcher that can launch your Web Connection applications in a variety of ways. Modes include: IIS, IISEXPRESS,SERVER,NONE. You can simply launch any of the modes with Launch("IISEXPRESS") or simply DO LAUNCH for the defaults.

• wwUtils FixComErrorMessage()
  Simple helper function that strips the Ole Dispatch error prefix from the front of a COM error message leaving just the actual error message text.

  You can create a new Launch.prg for existing projects by generating a new project,copying Launch.prg into your project and changing the configuration variables at the top of the file (usually the project name and virtual). The rest of the file is generic and portable.

Breaking Changes in 7.06

• Changed the Server.oConfig.lLiveReloadServer to lLiveReloadEnabled
  Due to the changes in Live Reload functionality and for consistency the lLiveReloadServer flag naming has changed. This flag was introduced in 7.05 and generated in the MyAppMain.prg main program file of new projects.

• Make sure to update WebConnectionModule.dll and Microsoft.WebSockets.dll
  The new Live Reload functionality is implemented inside of the WebConnection .NET Module in webconnectionmodule.dll so to use this new feature you need to update that file in all your Web projects. Also a new DLL, Microsoft.WebSockets.dll has been introduced to enable the Live Reload functionality.

Version 7.05

May 7th, 2019
Release Blog Post • No Breaking Changes • Update Notes

• wwHttp now supports String Downloads > 16mb
  You can now download data larger than 16mb into strings. FoxPro has a 16mb string limit but with careful usage you can access strings much larger than 16mb as long as the strings are not updated. wwHttp has always supported downloading larger files directly to file and this is just another option that works by default.

• wwHttp large File Download Speed Improvement
  Changed the wwHttp buffer sizing behavior to dynamically size the buffer depending on the download size. Larger buffers drastically improve download performance of large HTTP payloads easily improving 5 fold for megabyte sized downloads.

• Add Option to not Allow Html in Markdown Parser and Function
  The Markdown() function and MarkdownParser class now have options to disallow HTML markup inside of any Markdown parsed. This can be useful to cut down on possible XSS attack vectors that go beyond the XSS prevention already built into the Markdown parsing process.

• wwSFTP Client now fails if renci.ssh.dll is missing
  wwSFTP now immediately fails if the SSH library used for the SFTP connection cannot be found on startup. Previously this resulted Undefined COM Error on sending - you now get a specific warning that points at the missing assembly.

• Updated Weblog Sample Comment Management
  Comments are now moderated with an email sent when a new comment arrives, and authenticated users can remove comments in a post or in the main comment list. This fixes a serious SPAM targeting issue with un-moderated spam.

• Performance Improvements For Request Processing
  Optimized a number of API calls commonly used by reusing API declarations for a number of common operations. Removing repeated DECLARE calls on API calls for many often reused functions should trim a little overhead in request processing times inside of the Fox server.

• Fix: DLL Naming Problems in New Project Wizard
  Fixed bug with New Project Wizard that failed to copy multi-segment named DLLs into the new project folder correctly. Specifically, newtonsoft.json.dll and renci.sshnet.dll were truncated to (newtonsoft.dll and renci.dll). Fixed. Please update your project folders with updated DLLs from this release.

No Breaking Changes in 7.05

• There are no breaking changes in 7.05 but as always you'll want to upgdate your DLLs in your projects to the latest from the Web Connection folders. Update the Deploy folder DLLs and the \web\bin folder dlls.

Version 7.04

March 6th, 2019

No Breaking Changes • Update Notes

• wwApi ZipFolder() and UnzipFolder()
  .NET based folder zip functions that work of source and target folders on disk. Basic zipping and unzipping features only but handles special files and long file names better than the old ZipFiles() and UnzipFiles() functions.

• Add support for Binary Data to wwXml::XmlToObject/ObjectToXml
  wwXML can now serialize and deserialize binary data (of type BLOB or Q) to and from XML using base64 serialization.

• wwSql.nTimeout Property
  Allows you to set the SQL Connection timeout globally before a connection is made.

• wwProcess::nAuthenticationTimeoutSeconds
  Added a property to control the authentication timeout for the session cookie set for authentication.

• GetFileName() and GetDirectoryName() wwUtils Helpers
  These methods are similar to JUSTFNAME() and JUSTPATH() except they preserve the case of the input path.

• Refactored Server Error Handling
  The wwServer class has some updates that simplify how errors are handled, displayed, logged and emailed with dedicated methods that handle these tasks. New methods in include wwServer::SendAdminEmail() and wwServer::ErrorMsg() that is used to display an error page.

• New Project Wizard now copies DLLs to Deploy Folder
  When you create a new project, the Wizard now automatically copies all Web Connection dependent DLLs to the Deploy folder, so that running standalone without the IDE and the generated config.fpw doesn't cause errors due to missing DLL dependencies. It also makes it clearer that those DLLs have to present for deployed applications.

• Fixes to the Launch.prg Startup Program
  Fixed a number of small issues related to how Launch.prg is generated and started initially when a new project is generated.

Version 7.02

January 24th, 2019

Release Blog Post • Breaking Changes • Update Notes

• New wwDynamic Class
  Added a new dynamic object class that allows for creating or extending objects with dynamic properties that are created as you reference them. Ideal in scenarios where you need to return 'tuple' like object results from methods or where you dynamically need to build up object structures in user code.

• Add Launch.prg to Project Template and Samples
  New projects now have a Launch.prg generated that makes it super easy to start up a Web Connection application from FoxPro. The file supports launching either IIS or IISExpress (if not running it will launch it) and navigate to a default page that you can change. It'll set up default paths, bring up the Web connection server, open the start page for the project. The PRG can be customized for your specific environment and it's a great way to have an easy way to start running your application for the first time.

• Setup and New Project Wizard Improvements
  Both the Setup and New Project Wizard now show detailed information about how to launch your applications in the FoxPro desktop. Instructions show how to launch your server (via the new Launch.prg) and what URL to navigate to. Paths are automatically configured. Setup automatically launches the sample application now, the New Project Wizard displays a message on the desktop.

• Setup now Prompts for IIS Installation
  The Setup wizard now explicitly asks to make sure that you have IIS or IIS Express installed and if not takes you to the documentation with installation instructions. This hopefully prevents people from installing Web Connection when the Web Server is not installed yet.

• WebLog Example converted to MVC Style Scripts and Templates
  The Sample Weblog Application that ships with Web Connection has been re-written to work as an MVC style application from the original Web Control Framework application. Most of the UI remains the same, but the underlying framework has been switched to use MVC style Models and Scripts to present that Web UI. There have also been a few enhancements including support for Markdown comments, a new Comment editor, and an integrated mechanism to delete comments and posts through the main interface rather than in a separate admin screen. This application is shipped in the Web Connection \Samples\Weblog folder.

• wwHttp::AddPostKey() tcExtraHeaders Parameter
  Added a tcExtraHeaders parameter to AddPostKey() that allows specify extra HTTP headers for multi-part form values posted.

• wwHttp .Get(), .Post(), .Put(), .Delete() Methods
  Added wrapper methods for specific Http Verb operations for clarity. HttpGet() was always a misnomer for non GET operations and these functions are meant purely for code clarity. They have the same parameters as the HttpGet() method.

• wwHttp.GetCertificates()
  You can now get a list of TLS certificates installed on the local machine to potentially pass to requests.

• wwHttp::lDecodeUtf8 to automatically decode UTF-8 Content
  Added a new wwHttp::lDecodeUtf8 property that is .t. by default to decode UTF-8 content based on the Content-Type header.

• wwCollection Enhancements
  Added Find() method to wwCollection to allow for finding elements by their value. You can now search any type of element including objects. New Set() property allows setting a value if it exists or add a new one if it doesn't. A new RequiresUniqueItems property allows collections that can't have duplicate values. The Item() method fixes a few scenarios where non-matched items would fail and now return null.

• wwUtils GetRelativePath() Function
  Added a new function that returns a relative path. Unlike SYS(2014) this function returns the path in proper case.

• wwUtils SaveFileDialog() and OpenFileDialog() Functions
  Save and Open file dialogs that unlike PUTFILE() and GETFILE() return the filename and path in proper case so files can be saved and retrieved by their actual on disk filenames.

• wwUtils JsonBool() Function to embed JavaScript Boolean Values
  Rounds out routines to write out Json values as string in addition to JsonString() and JsonDate().

• All Web Connection DLLs and EXEs are now digitally signed
  Web Connection is now built with a proper build process that builds the entire product in an automated fashion. Previously some parts were using this automated process but it has now been fully automated. As part of that process all West Wind DLLs and EXEs and Setup files are signed with a digital signature to allow verifying authenticity. This will also make it less 'scary' to run the installer for the first time if Windows SmartScreen is is enabled.

Version 7.0

November 16th, 2018

Release Blog Post • Breaking Changes

• Template Updates to BootStrap 4 and Upated Support Libraries
  Overhauled the default project templates to use Bootstrap 4 and FontAwesome 5 and updated overall styling to be more up to date. Updated related components like the date HtmlDateTextBox() to use tempusdominus-bootstrap-4 date picker control. Helpers support both Bootstrap 3 and 4, via a compiler switch BOOSTRAP_VERSION 4. There have been many tweaks and updates to the styles for cleaner rendering and a number of new support styles have been added.

• Fix: Remove hardcoded Content Page Paths from Scripts
  Changed the generated PRG output for content pages so that the content page path is no longer hardcoded into the page code. This fixes issues where if a compiled FXP was moved to a new location it would fail due to an invalid template path. Updated code provides the content page path up the call stack and persists it into the layout page.

• Updated Visual Studio Templates and Intellisense Snippets
  We've created 20 or so Intellisense snippets (Ctrl-k-x -> My Html Snippets -> Web Connection) that let you quickly inject common Web Connection and Bootstrap controls/components into the page with minimal effort. We also provide Visual Studio Code Page Snippet templates for Layout, Content and Standalone pages.

• Visual Studio Code Web Connection Code Snippets
  We've added a number of helpful code snippets for Visual Studio Code for inserting blocks of code for common Web Connection components in scripts and templates are available. Type wc- in the editor to see the VS Code snippets.

• Generic Markdown Page Rendering
  New projects now include the ability to render any Markdown page with an .md extension and render it into HTML. You can simply drop a Markdown file into a folder add any dependent images and have that page rendered. A custom Markdown_Template.wcs template can be customized to provide custom page layout for site chrome to match your site's identity.

• <% %> Scripting inside of <markdown></markdown>
  You can also use script and expression tags inside of Markdown blocks to effectively script Markdown text.

• Updated Markdown Island Support in Scripts and Templates
  Web Connection has support <markdown></markdown> tag islands into which you can put Markdown text that is rendered as HTML for a while. Previously you had to left align the Markdown content. With this release Markdown content no longer has to be left aligned, rather the parser detects the common space before all lines and strips it.

• New Projects automatically create local Git Repository
  If Git is installed locally, the New Project wizard now automatically creates a Git repository in the new project and creates a first commit. You can easily continue committing and always roll back to the initial install. If you don't like the git repo - remove the .git folder and it's gone.

• Authentication Improvements
  All authentication releated Process properties - lIsAuthenticated, cAuthenticatedUser and cAuthenticatedUserName - now explicitly call OnCheckForAuthentication() if it wasn't previously called, ensuring that authentication is always checked when accessing these properties. Previously you had to explicitly call Authenticate() or OnCheckForAuthentication() which is no longer necessary. A new internal flag ensures that authentication is checked only once on repeated accesses as it accesses the session store to check or retrieve the auth token.

• wwUserSecurity Improvements
  Updated wwUserSecurity logic to automatically create .oUserSecurity and .oUser` objects on each requests. When accessing these objects Web Connection checks to see if they already exist and if not they are created. If a user is not logged in, an empty oUser record is created and you can check for an empty user with oUserSecurity.IsEmpty().

• wwUserSecurity Password Encryption Improvements
  wwUserSecurity will now automatically encrypt a password that's not already encrypted if cPasswordEncryptionKey is set to encrypt passwords. You can now add a non-encrypted password into the file, and next time the user is authenticated the password will be encrypted and written into the database in encrypted form.

• wwUtils.SanitizeHtml() to sanitize HTML strings Added a new SanitizeHtml() function to wwUtils to strip scriptable code out of HTML text. Useful for cleaning up user captured HTML or Markdown text to prevent XSS attacks from user input. Requires .NET.

• Response.ExpandScriptAsString() and Response.ExpandTemplateAsString()
  These two functions can now be called to parse a script or template and return the output result as a string rather than writing output into the Response stream as complete pages. Render pages or partials into HTML and use them from process class code directly. Although we recommend using scripts and templates along with Partials to do embed external templates, it can sometimes be useful to 'call' a partial component directly from code. For example a Login Partial component might be rendered into non-script pages and can just be embedded as a string. These functions are mere wrappers around ExpandScript() and ExpandTemplate() using the tlReturnAsString parameter - they are provided for easier syntax and better discoverability.

• Update Project Template and Add HelloScript Request
  Add a new script page to the default template that demonstrates running a request using MVC style development by using the a script page with code behind. The script page renders the current request list, displays a message alert box and describes several aspects of the MVC process.

• Add BrowserSync.prg to new Project Template
  New projects now get a BrowserSync.prg that can be used for live reloading when you make changes to HTML, CSS, JS and Script/Templates in your project. Requires NodeJs/NPM install for Browser-Sync, but this incredibly useful feature makes it much quicker to iterate server side script, HTML,CSS,JavaScript code similar to the way client side tools work.

• HtmlRssFeed()
  Added a method that can produce HTML output from an RSS Feed. The method is customizable with a HtmlRssFeedConfig that allows control over number of items retrieved and a number of formatting options for the feed.

• New File Upload Samples
  Removed the overly complex plUpload component from Web Connection and instead provided simpler pure AJAX examples as well as a simpler and much more modern uploader called Uppy. There are simple file upload samples, and an example of uploads displaying in an image carousel.

• wwPdfPrinterDriver PDF Printer for wwPDF
  Added a generic PDF driver that can be used with any printer driver that outputs to PDF including the built-in Microsoft Print to PDF driver in Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016 and later. This driver handles report printing, capturing and waiting for the output file from the print spooler and dealing with unattended mode issues when running in COM modes.

• wwDotnetBridge - Automatically unblock DLL
  Added logic to automatically unblock wwDotnetBridge.dll. This should help with many common loader error issues.

• Improved Error Message for wwDotnetBridge Load Errors
  wwDotnetBridge has a few rules required in order to run it - specifically related to Internet downloaded-loaded DLLs and loading from a network. Updated the loader error message with common causes and link to documentation.

• wwDotnetBridge Fixup for List return values
  Added additional support for List<T> return values to InvokeMethod() and GetProperty() results, which returns these values as a ComArray now.

• wwDotnetBridge Support for Creating Generic Types
  You can now create generic .NET types like List<T> or Dictionary<t,t1>. A new method on ComValue::SetValueFromCreateGenericInstance() allows you to create a generic type on the ComValue structure. Since generic types are not directly accessible from FoxPro (no support for COM interfaces on generic types) interfacing with these types always goes through ComValue and indirect ac

• wwProcess::OnLogout()
  Added method hook that is called after a user is logged out. This is useful for removing additional application specific state that might be saved in session or other application data stores.

• wwProcess::InitSession(): New llSecure parameter
  You can now specify that the Session cookie created can only be used under HTTPS via the llSecure parameter. This translates to the Secure flag of the cookie created.

• wwUtils GetFullPath() Function
  Function that resolves a relative path to a full path but also matches the proper case of the file on disk if it exists.
