Hi guys. The 5.07 is finally out and it is a really powerful version. If you are interested in the version details go here to read the changelog http://www.ugmfree.it/SyMenuDownload.aspx#changelog Instead with this post I would like to alert you that some breaking changes have been released or are next to be released.
The first new feature concerns the new environment variable management. No more guides to insert only certain variables. Now you can add whatever variable you like, even newly created ones. I advise you to read carefully the manual (http://www.ugmfree.it/SyMenuManual.aspx#SyProgramAdvancedEnvironmentVariables) where I hope the topic can be clarified better. It's a completely new approach so if anyone has suggestions or issues to report we can open a dedicated thread on this.
Another new feature is the resolution for relative paths. Well I admit that the previous solution was a bit weird: the relative path resolution started from the SyMenu root folder while the most natural location was from the root application path. The new behavior is exactly this last one so if anyone used the relative paths resolution, well you have to change your setting. Sorry but I release the beta version exactly to allow you to test this new behavior. Generally SyMenu hates the breaking changes but this time I was forced to introduce it.
The last point is related to the SyMenu command shell. Since it's about to die please test your programs using the new setting because at some point I will remove the option to use the command shell in favor to the Windows'.
That's all. In the next version I'll focus my attention on increasing the performances during the SPS program definition deploy that today is really painful.
