July 13th, 2004 ivtools-1.2.1
Two crashes discovered and fixed by Michal Palczewski (mpalczew at
users.sourceforge.net). One was a crash on exit after a delete with
idraw/drawtool, the other was a crash upon delete with graphdraw.
They turned out to be long-standing bugs in the order of object
deletion, problems that hadn't appeared with other versions of gcc.
RedHat must have adopted a more aggressive recycling of freed space in
a recent release. Thanks Michal.
June 3rd, 2004 ivtools-1.2
ivtools-1.2 sets a new direction for the package, toward peer-to-peer
drawing chat. ivtools' drawserv, the editor that incorporates every ivtool
mechanism to date (multi-frame, graph-editing, integrated scripting
language) has been extended to support a unique kind of
small-granularity shared whiteboard.
This work was based on the pre-existing networked scripting capability
of ivtools' comdraw. Then the pasting of any graphic was intercepted,
and the graphic serialized into a command that could be communicated
to other drawing editors to keep them in sync.
