LonMarkResourceFiles1300.exe
(10.5 MB, updated 2010-01-21)
Installer contains
rev. 4 API
and
has been upgraded
to work with
the Windows® 7 OS.
Further, it now supports
Invalid-Values Overrides
(see NOTE to the right).
|
The present, non-beta release of the LonMark Resource Files (LMRFs).
Includes all of the machine-readable, version 13.00, SNVTs, SCPTs, Enums, and SFPTs that form the basic building blocks of a device LonMark certified device; and
the
Resource File API, revision 4 run-time files—all in one, convenient executable that ensures the proper placement of files, backup of existing FMT files, and setting of paths and version numbers in the Windows OS Registry.
NOTE: This installer was updated (from 13.00.10 to 13.00.14) to include the DRF API updates to supports invalid-value overrides. This override ability is now available for CP types and CP and NV members of function profiles. The changes are backward compatible, such that files created using the old API can be opened using the new API and vice-versa. However, if files containing invalid value overrides are opened using the old API, those override values will be lost; as expected.
