- Improved documentation (added .NET chapter for beginners *please read it*)
Added also a chapter about Siemens data format.
- Added Helper class/functions

==================================================================================
[Added]

- Helper class/function to insert/extract S7 typed vars from a byte[] buffer.

You will find them into the wrappers (.net/Pascal/C++)
- Solaris Sparc support
(Thanks to Rolf Stalder for makefiles)
- .Net Winform small demos
- .Net solution for rebuilding snap7.net.cs

- .net S7Client.ReadMultivars (and Write) was improved.
(Thanks to LanceL who made it)

(Thanks to Mathias Ksel for reporting it)

[Latest OS]

- Tested with Ubuntu 14.10 (32/64)

- Tested with Windows 10 Technical Preview (32/64)

[fixed]

- Fixed some Typo errors into snap7.net.cs

- Fixed a small bug into Read/WriteMultiVars

======================================================================[2014-04-17]
Version 1.2.1 - Bugfix/Small changes release (fully compatible with 1.0.0)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Some small Apple Mac OSX changes (Tested under OSX 10.9.1 Mavericks)
- Some bug fixed
- Documentation updated.

- Some OLD/RARELY USED libraries are not longer deployed.

 but *THEY ARE STILL TESTED AND SUPPORTED*

If you don't have the way to rebuild Snap7 in these platforms please contact me
and I will try to help you.

They are :
- Linux i386/x86_64 GLIBC 2.11 up to 2.15
- Linux ARMHF BeagleBone Black, CubieBoard 2, PcDuino.

- A new Linux distro is supported (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and derivatives GLIBC 2.19)

- Old Windows Platforms are still fully supported but you will find them into
\release\windows\Legacy\Win32 and Win64.

This because many people had problems with .NET environment (which doesn't like
non-Microsoft Libraries on some platforms), so the official Windows libraries are
now compiled with Visual Studio.

If you plan to use MinGW64, use Legacy libraries (wich work fine up to Windows
8).

==================================================================================

[Changed]

- Unix, now it's possible to specify the destination folder of the library using
the
optional param LibInstall=<NewPath> into the make command line. If not specified
the default path is /usr/lib.
(thanks to Gijs Molenaar)

- Apple OSX, now the library suffix is .dylib instead of .so

however it's possible override the suffix using the LibExt param (see doc.)
(thanks to Gijs Molenaar)

[fixed]

- Fixed a typo error into snap7.net.cs (Cli_GetPlcStatus)

(Thanks to Dabbadoeber for reporting)

- Fixed a bug into s7_micro_client.cpp into block download function.

(Thanks to Mark Konst for reporting)

- fixed a bug into s7_partner.cpp (issues for transfers>PDU size)

(Thanks to Volker Sarnes)

- fixed a bug into s7_server.cpp (wrong bit access)

(Thanks to Thomas Costa)

- little modification to client.cs and ppartner.cs to be compiled with VS2008 which

doesn't handle the constant (default) parameter in a method declaration.
(thanks to Max Schaetzel for reporting)

======================================================================[2014-01-01]
Version 1.2.0 - New Minor platform release (fully compatible with 1.0.0)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Apple Mac OSX support (Tested under OSX 10.9.1 Mavericks)
- Some bug fixed
- Documentation improved and updated.
==================================================================================

[Added]

- Apple OSX full support :

makefiles, source examples, binary library and binary demos supplied.
new osx folders added in the entire project.

[fixed]

- S7API directive missing for two functions in snap7_libmain.h

(Thanks to Mathias Ksel for reporting)

- fixed Snap7.S7Server.Srv_RegisterArea in snap7.net.cs

(Thanks to Andr for reporting).

- Added a static var to contain the callback addresses into c# examples.

The .net garbage collector *sometime* garbages the delegates (called by unmanaged
code) if their address is not stored into a static var.
MS says that it's not a clr bug (maybe a feature ????)
However this solves the problem.
PLEASE SEE THE .NET EXAMPLES IF YOU PLAN TO USE SNAP7 (or other unmanaged)
CALLBACKS.
(Thanks to Martin Bratt for reporting).

- Srv_SetReadEventsCallback prototype missing in Snap7.pas

======================================================================[2013-11-10]
