SRL Archive - Revisions / Releases

Friends,

Following the recent 1.1.0 release candidates, we now consider Simba 1.1.0 stable enough for daily macroing pleasure/usage.

Simba 1.1.0 is codenamed "Zealous Bugger", after Olly, who has faithfully bugged me almost every day for the past three weeks to actually do this release. Olly, well, here it is… ;-)

Download: http://nala.villavu.com/downloads/master/557693344184bced4ef7dc5550c0e073e662d05e/

Github release: https://github.com/MerlijnWajer/Simba/releases/tag/simba-1.1.0

My thanks go out to all the people that worked hard to get this release "Zealous Bugger" done.
A few days after this release, I will put the Simba "1100" version in the autoupdater. SRL should remain compatible with both Simba versions for some time to come, but eventually you'll have to update. :-)

Cheers,
The Simba Developers (Too many great people to mention all of them individually)

On a personal note, for Simba 1.2.0 I want to update the build environment we use to build releases and also put the (automated) Linux builds back on track.

Nice work Dev team!

Awesomee!

thank you for all the hard work! :)

Congratulations to everyone involved :)
Now hopefully everyone can sync up, it feels like we all have random versions of SRL-6 and Simba never working together well.

Also, if anyone cares, this is still the current news:

"Simba news:

Simba 1.0 has been released! You can get it at Github[1] and the full
thread[2] including installer is at the forums.

Meanwhile, Simba 1.0.1 has been released. Everyone is encouraged to update.

We suggest that everyone updates to Simba 1.0. There's a lot of new
features, and the more recent SRL versions depend on it.

If there are bugs, please - as always - let us know. We'll do our best to
fix them for you!

As always, see you on our homepage; http://villavu.com

Hakuna Matata!"

@Clarity: Updated the news.

Will this auto update SRL-6?

Sweet! Nice to see a newer version of simba!

Nice! Way to go guys!

nice! well done and thank you to all the development team for the awesome work they do voluntarily for all of us to enjoy!

You probably already have the updated version of SRL-6. It was in the updater a couple days ago.

Sorry to sound noob, but maybe this will help other people also. How do I go about installing this new Simba and SRL?

Download and install: http://simba.villavu.com/bin/Release/Current/SimbaInstaller.exe

SRL-6 should of auto-updated but you can manually do this via the SRL tab at the top of Simba. (Once the SRL extension has been enabled)

@Olly
The fruits of your labor has finally arrived!

Nice job, dev team!

Yes - I made a boo. The Installer still says 1.00 ; I'll probably release 1.1.1 in a bit, fixing that at least.

Congrats on the release, guys! Great work :)

That name > everything else :)

I love this release, nice job! So if I get it right and according to this:


It isn't necessary anymore to download the DirectX plugin or to add the line smartPlugins := ['d3d9.dll'];, right?

You are correct.

Yay now I will helps more :)

Great work!

Added Simba 1100 to the auto updater.

I like the codename, it's quite accurate.

Was there a ninja update or new includes because 90% of scripts i use broke..

Scripts are working fine! The scripts you are using are probably outdated.

Thanks for the release :)

Request to revert TCanvas to the old days with the handle accessible..

In the oldest version of Simba, the Handle used to be accessible. It was useless but accessible and could be printed.

Simba exports one of the most important functions (in my opinion) called "getNativeWindow" and it returns a window's handle so that plugins and stuff can mess with or help Simba target windows. This works nicely both on Windows and Linux.

Now to advance it by reverting the canvas and exporting one more function:

getDisplay(wnd: TNativeWindow); this function would return the Display* on Linux and the HDC on Windows.

Linux: https://github.com/MerlijnWajer/Simba/blob/master/Units/MMLCore/os_linux.pas#L87
Windows: https://github.com/MerlijnWajer/Simba/blob/master/Units/MMLCore/os_windows.pas#L84

If that is exported and canvas is fixed.. we'd be able to do things like (theoretically):

var
  C: TCanvas;
  old: TNativeDisplay;
  new: TNativeDisplay;
begin
  C.Init();
  old := C.getHandle();
  new := getNativeDisplay();
  C.setHandle(new);
  //C.DrawWhateverWeWant..
  C.setHandle(old);
  C.Free();
end.

and it'll allow you to draw on ANY window without leaking or messing things up so long as you restore the handle that was created. http://lazarus-ccr.sourceforge.net/docs/lcl/graphics/tcanvas.handle.html

because it's an HDC on windows and most likely a display on linux..

Taking a screenshot would be the same thing as well.. but there's already functions for that.

Iunno.. just a proposition. Would be nice though.
