FileUltimate v6.0.0
Example projects for WebForms (C#), WebForms (VB), MVC (C#) and MVC (VB) are included.
Version 6.0.0 - May 22, 2018
-
Added: "ASP.NET Core on .NET Framework" support. ASP.NET Core uses a completely new web engine different than
System.Web but now you can use GleamTech products on both classic ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core with the same net40 DLL
as we abstracted classes like HttpContext, HttpRequest and HttpResponse etc. and we implemented a Middleware for
mimicking HttpModule and HttpHandler. So our DLL auto-magically works regardless of whether you are running
under classic ASP.NET or ASP.NET Core. Note that "ASP.NET Core on .NET Core" is a different platform and it's not
supported yet because it requires porting all the code from .NET Framework runtime to .NET Core runtime so it
requires a new DLL and .NET Core runtime does not provide all of the APIs yet. Minimum supported version is
ASP.NET Core MVC 2.0.3 on .NET Framework 4.6.1 (this is because 2.0.3 fixes a bug related to referencing
external DLLs in a razor page). -
Added: New example project for "ASP.NET Core on .NET Framework", please refer to it for info on sample usage.
-
Added: Documentation for the library (similar to DocumentUltimate). API docs is not complete yet but important
classes are covered. -
Changed: GleamTech.FileUltimate namespace is mainly moved to GleamTech.FileUltimate.AspNet.UI
- GleamTech.FileUltimate.AspNet.UI: Sub-namespace for common FileManager component model.
- GleamTech.FileUltimate.AspNet.WebForms: Sub-namespace for ASP.NET Web Forms support.
This mimicks DocumentUltimate namespaces.
-
Changed: License keys are changed so please go to https://www.gleamtech.com/upgrade and acquire a new license
key if you want to use this version (or higher). If your one year maintenance has not ended, you will receive a
new free license key on the same page. -
Improved: Updated Media Player.
-
Improved: Document Viewer stability, accuracy for Portable, Presentation and Spreadsheet formats.
FileUltimate v5.22.0
Example projects for WebForms (C#), WebForms (VB), MVC (C#) and MVC (VB) are included.
Version 5.22.0 - April 20, 2018
-
Improved: Document Viewer:
-
Improved: Improved stability, accuracy and restored conversion performance (was slower since v5.20.5) for
WordProcessing and Presentation formats. -
Improved: Improved stability, accuracy for Spreadsheet and ProjectManagement formats.
-
FileUltimate v5.21.6
Example projects for WebForms (C#), WebForms (VB), MVC (C#) and MVC (VB) are included.
Version 5.21.6 - April 11, 2018
-
Fixed: Handler routing was not working (HTTP 404) in ASP.NET Development Server included in Visual Studio 2010
due to how it handled Request.PathInfo differently from IIS/IIS Express. -
Fixed: Building source code package in Visual Studio 2010 was broken due to higher tag in csproj files.
You needed to change C# version for each project to build sucessfully. Now reverted to "default" as in previous
releases so it builds out of the box.
FileUltimate v5.21.5
Example projects for WebForms (C#), WebForms (VB), MVC (C#) and MVC (VB) are included.
Version 5.21.5 - April 7, 2018
-
Fixed: In some cases, ASP.NET's UrlRoutingModule was still taking over the handlers (HTTP 404) after
the new own routing was added in v5.21.0. This is now completely fixed.
For reference, it was avoidable with v5.21.0 via adding the below line at the start of RegisterRoutes method
in RouteConfig.cs (of MVC project):routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.ashx/{*pathInfo}")
Now, this is not required anymore starting with this version.
-
Improved: Document Viewer. Newer versions of Cad formats (AutoCad 2018) is now supported.
FileUltimate v5.21.0
Example projects for WebForms (C#), WebForms (VB), MVC (C#) and MVC (VB) are included.
Version 5.21.0 - March 30, 2018
-
Fixed: Document Viewer was broken ("engine not found" errors) in v5.20.5 due to obfuscation.
-
Added: Implemented own routing for better CMS compatibility (e.g. SiteFinity, DotNetNuke)
CMSs usually take over and clear System.Web.Routing.RouteTable so as a result resource and component handlers
were not accessible (HTTP 404 errors) unless you called FileUltimateConfiguration.RestoreRoutes method.
Removed FileUltimateConfiguration.RestoreRoutes method as it's no longer necessary. -
Fixed: IE 8 support was broken, FileManager failed to load with errors in browser console. Now it will render
as expected. -
Fixed: "Open" action (open in browser) in FileManager failed with HTTP 404 error for files in very deep folders.
This happened because the generated URL for "Open" action was too long. IIS and ASP.NET usually have 255 character
limit by default in URL path part (due to legacy Windows limit).
The reason we generated a long URL path was specially for being able to view HTML files which has references
to css and images (e.g. ../images/image1.jpg). This way relative paths inside the HTML work and images are not broken.
However when you open a .txt file or .pdf file in browser this path in URL is pointless so from now on this
feature will be limited to .html or .html files. So for file types other than HTML, the path is moved
to querystring (parts after ? by default allow long strings) to prevent HTTP 404 error in very deep folders. -
Improved: Document Viewer and image thumbnailer/viewer stability.
FileUltimate v5.20.5
Example projects for WebForms (C#), WebForms (VB), MVC (C#) and MVC (VB) are included.
Version 5.20.5 - March 24, 2018
-
Improved: Document Viewer:
-
Some DOCX files were causing infinite loop and failing to convert or display.
-
PPT/PPTX files with asian fonts were causing an error on some machines and failing to convert or display.
-
"Any word" search still did not find results when keywords had more than 1 hyphen in-between (e.g. "24-3-2018").
-
FileUltimate v5.20.0
Example projects for WebForms (C#), WebForms (VB), MVC (C#) and MVC (VB) are included.
Version 5.20.0 - March 16, 2018
-
Improved: Document Viewer:
-
"Any words" search did not find results when keywords had hyphens in-between.
-
"Any words" search would hang (infinite loop) when one of the words was a single hyphen.
-
A subsequent search in the viewer (without reloading the document) with new criteria where
no results are returned did not clear any of the highlights (yellow and orange both) from
the previous successful search. -
Updated icons with better ones.
-
Improved stability.
-
FileUltimate v5.19.5
Example projects for WebForms (C#), WebForms (VB), MVC (C#) and MVC (VB) are included.
Version 5.19.5 - March 6, 2018
-
Fixed: When you clicked to preview a document inside a zip (or another archive file) Document Viewer would fail to
load the file with "The stream is not reachable" error. -
Improved: The upload window buttons were not visible on mobile, removed the window constrain so that upload
window can be moved on narrow screens. This is a quick fix until we redesign the upload window. -
Improved: Updated image thumbnailer and viewer. New formats: SVG, JPEG 2000 (JP2), EMF, WMF, DIB, ICO
-
Improved: Document Viewer stability.
