  • + 360Works ScriptMaster 4.123 - 18th March 2011
    • Fixed a bug where custom plugins made by ScriptMaster 4 Advanced would not be properly updated through FileMaker Server Auto-Update. Auto-Update will only work if the plugin is updated before any of the custom plugin functions are called (other than the version function).
  • + 360Works ScriptMaster 4.122
    • Fixed a plugin generation issue introduced in version 4.121.
  • + 360Works ScriptMaster 4.121

Plugins prior to this version will need to be removed from the Auto-Update directory, we’ve put together an applet to take care of this http://www.360works.com/remove-plugins/. Perviously, FileMaker needed to be restarted after Auto-Update on Mac and on Windows the update had to be performed manually in some cases, this update takes care of both issues.

    • Major speed improvements to compiling ScriptMaster functions.
    • Now has Groovy 1.7.1 compiled into the plugin. This supports many new groovy features, such as the GroovyWS web services classes.

    • === ScriptMaster Advanced ===.
    • You may now choose to purchase ScriptMaster Advanced Edition. The Advanced edition has these features in addition to what comes with the free version:.
    • You can create your own FileMaker plugins from ScriptMaster, which can be distributed royalty-free to any client with your FileMaker solution. You can name them whatever you want, and they will have your favorite ScriptMaster modules embedded right into the plugin!.
    • You can execute SQL statements in FileMaker with the Advanced Edition, or with plugins generated from it.
    • You can read and write from the system clipboard with the Advanced Edition, or with plugins generated from it.
    • Plugins generated from the Advanced Edition are pre-compiled, so they do not need to be compiled at startup. This will greatly improve solution launch times.
