Alphen aan den Rijn, The Netherlands, June 8th, 2005--Troi Automatisering today announced the availability of a new version of Troi File Plug-in for FileMaker Pro 7. Troi File Plug-in 3.0.4 makes use of the new extended plug-in API of FileMaker 7. Calls to the plug-in's functions can support Unicode and more and bigger parameters. What is Troi File Plug-in? Troi File Plug-in is a very powerful tool for getting access to information outside the FileMaker Pro database. Any files or folders stored on the computer can be accessed through the functions of the plug-in. All from within FileMaker you can: get data from files that are on the disk of the computer into FileMaker Pro create files anywhere on the hard disk and put data from FileMaker fields into them manipulate files and folders on the disk: this includes creating, deleting, copying, moving and modifying files and folders query detailed information of files: the size on disk, creation and modification dates and much more launch files with their appropriate application directly from FileMaker Pro What is changed? This version adds two new functions, improves Unicode handling and fixes some bugs. The main changes are: New features Added two new functions to change the creation date and modification date of a file: TrFile_SetTimestampCreated TrFile_SetTimestampModified Added switch to TrFile_SetContents and TrFile_AppendContents functions: -CRtoCRLF. This switch makes it possible to write files using Windows line endings. Return characters in the text parameter are substituted with CRLF (Carriage Return followed by a Line Feed) in the written file. Added support for importing PDF files in the Import1Image.fp7 example file. This will work only on Mac OS X, as FileMaker only supports PDFs there. Bug fixes Improved handling of Unicode in TrFile_CreateFolder function. The handling of Unicode is now more robust, as higher Unicode characters in both the folder name and the path are now handled correctly. (Windows) Fixed a bug in TrFile_SetContents, where the file length would not be set correctly, if the file already existed. (Mac OS X) Fixed a resource conflict at idle time with other plug-ins. Also the plug-in no longer needs processor time when FileMaker is idle. Suggested Uses Batch import of any text file, anywhere Let the user select a folder and process the contents of this folder Create a web site by exporting multiple HTML files Update solutions, by moving database files into place Read and write custom formatted files, for example from legacy systems Catalog complete projects, including pictures, and the meta data like EXIF and IPTC Classic version still available Please note that Troi File Plug-in 2.8 is also still available.
