Changes

  • Error messages are now written to standard error instead of standard output [issue #13].
  • Modified the --version / -V command line option to so that, in addition to the program version number, information about whether the program was built as either a 32 bit or 64 bit Windows application is displayed [issue #23].
  • Updated the program to compile with Delphi 13 [issue #22].
  • Corrected errors in some error messages [issue #26].
  • Refactorings:
    • The source code was refactored and re-arranged, in large part to take advantage of modern compiler features [issue #17] & [issue #25].
    • The program release version is no longer hard coded in VerInfo.vi but is instead obtained from a new VERSION file.
    • Redundant code was removed [issue #27].
  • Updated the Deploy.bat release creation script:
    • Fixed a typo that was causing a potential bug [issue #18].
    • The user no longer has to pass the program version as a parameter when calling Deploy.bat. The script now gets the information by reading the VERSION file [issue #21].
  • Updated documentation re the changes:
    • Fixed errors in the description of error codes in Docs/ReadMe.txt [issue #24].
    • Source code commenting was changed to use the XMLDoc format [issue #17].
    • The program's help screen and the help section of Docs/ReadMe.txt were updated re the change to writing error messages to standard error.
    • Build.txt was updated re the change to using Delphi 13.
    • Updated the URLs of issues in CHANGELOG.md to reference the ddabapps/compfiledate GitHub repo instead of the old delphidabbler/compfiledate repo.
