Nightly build: SMath Studio 0.96.4875 available

Latest changes (against SMath Studio 0.96.4868)

SMath Viewer fixed to support Area Regions protected by password;
Worksheet's properties: Author and Company - is now reflected in output SMath Viewer (*.exe) files meta-data;
Fixed calculation issue appears on combination of the following settings: "Answer type" = "Auto" and "Decimal places" > "13";
IPlugin interface improved to support declaration of external files (libraries without IPlugin implementation);
RegionHolder improved to avoid excess invalidation on mouse move;
Viewer support for MathRegion improved (for expressions without output values);
Fixed issue with plug-ins contain references of external DLLs from "plugins" directory;
Language files updated to fix several kinds of most often happened errors.

Important notes

Please test plug-ins available for SMath Studio (built-in and third-party). All of them should be supported by SMath Viewer;
SMath Viewer output files should be smaller (only required plug-ins will be included into executable file);

Please update plugins to declare all referenced DLLs as shown below (this is required to work in SMath Viewer mode - see Note#2):


void IPlugin.Initialize()
{
    // Plugin dependences
    this.dependences = new[] {
        new AssemblyInfo("SMath Studio", new Version(0, 96), new Guid("a37cba83-b69c-4c71-9992-55ff666763bd"),
        new AssemblyInfo("USER_FRIENDLY_DLL_TITLE", "REQUIRED.dll" // Second argument - filename of the plug-in 
    };
}

Please test/update Custom Region plug-ins in order to ensure interaction with mouse is correct (region invalidation on mouse move).

Andrey, thank you for the update.

one issue just upon installation:

The new version is not marked as stable, thus no automatic update is triggered (and cannot be trigered manually from within the program)

Nevertheless, the installer did remove my previous installation of 0.96 even though I specified a different install location.
Can't the two recent builds co-exist? I guess, the user should at least be asked before touching the existing installation. Fortunately, the plugin collection was left in the otherwise empty old install dir.
Is there a safe way to have both versions installed and use them by context menu choice in the shell (perhaps with different icons for stable and unstable versions)?

Martin

EDIT: The installer of build 4868 leaves the 4875 installation untouched.

Here is an update of the portable SMath with plugins. Contains everything that I came across so far, except Maplewrapper due to dependency on non-free dos-Maple.

Just like the official portable Version you can install it everywhere, e.g. on a USB drive. Plus you can use plugins.
Tested only under Win 7 x64.
