Dear Community,
a new version of socketReader is out.
SocketReader 1.0.4 is the first version including distinct versions for 32Bit and 64Bit operating systems. You will find both versions within the release packages for your OS. This will mostly benefit the Linux community which now can use an all-in-one executable file for 64Bit Linux systems.
Code changes include a minor bug fix regarding unreliable shutdown in some circumstances.
SocketReader 1.0.4 binaries were successfully tested on these operating syetems:
Windows 7 64Bit
Windows XP 32Bit
Debian Linux Squeeze 64Bit and 32Bit
Ubuntu Linux 12.04 LTS 64Bit and 32Bit
Special thanks go to Rich Erlichman for his extensive testing.
The Linux binaries were built against Debian Linux Squeeze i386 and x68_64 architectures. They are expected to work on other *nix distributions as well if they run on i386 or x86_64 architectures and use packages with the same or newer versions than Debian Linux Squeeze.
To run the source code version on *nix systems, you need Python 2.7.3 with the sqlite3 and configparser packages installed on your system. Running the source code on Windows needs the Windows version of Python 2.7.3 installed, along with the matching release of pywin32.
If SocketReader is useful to you, please consider to support this project by making a donation.
Sincerely yours,
The socketReader Project Team
