Compiler


5.0.1

18 Jul 2025

  • Fixed: Solution debugging gets stuck starting a thread when that solution doesn't include the Utilities plugin


5.0.0

16 Jul 2025

  • Allow for dynamic Result Type on the CallXeroAPI operation

  • Fail sooner when a function property for a service function parameter is not found

  • Fixed: Type converters that do not specify the assembly were searched for in the executing assembly. They are now searched for in the assembly in which the type converter is declared.

  • Fixed: Operation is canceled validation appears when moving a large folder

  • Fixed: Expression fails validation when references use the null-conditional operator (?.)

  • Fixed: Test Failures are combined when using the "Are equal" assertion

  • Fixed: A TryCatch function within a Catch execution path fails to compile

  • Fixed: The compilation error "The type ... exists in both [some assembly] and [same assembly, different version]" by loading only the latest version of each assembly referenced by plugins.


4.0.1

26 Feb 2025

  • Fixed: Seemingly random exceptions started to occur, that also disappeared again on their own, when repeatedly debugging the solution or running tests. The issue was the build-up that happened and worsened with every compilation of the solution.


3.0.3

16 Oct 2024

  • Fixed: TryCatch function does not log to Debug Output

  • Fixed: Linx compilation failed due to an integer overflow when too large numbers were converted to smaller numeric types. Substring() and IndexOf() are two functions where this was a known issue.


3.0.2

14 Aug 2024

  • Fixed: TryCatch function duplicates exception message. This also fixes the exception message duplication seen in Linx Server when a function fails.

  • Fixed: Can't use Integer variable as the start-index of an IndexOf() function call

  • Fixed: Comments at the start of an expression causes a validation

  • Fixed: Integer overflow when casting


3.0.1

22 Jul 2024

  • Fixed: Conversion of TimeSpan to string


3.0.0

15 Jul 2024

  • Support for .NET 8

  • Support for the Solution Debugger

  • Support for starting and stopping of services via a process in a solution

  • Fixed: Assigning to property of type List caused a "Type not supported" exception

  • Fixed: Single Instance Process run in parallel caused synchronization exceptions

  • Fixed: Invalid cast exception when accessing a setting whose type is a nullable type


2.4.0

1 Dec 2023

  • Support for the platform independent version of the Async plugin


2.3.1

15 Nov 2023

  • Fixed: A NullReferenceException would happen in the Debugger in Designer when stopping a paused process that contained an async function.


2.3.0

3 Nov 2023

  • Added coroutine support (async-await)

  • Fixed: When #.System.Random was used, an unexpected validation appeared


2.2.0

12 Sep 2023

  • Changed the plugin from Windows-specific to be platform-independent

  • Support assigning a DateTimeOffset-typed value to a variable of type DateTime


2.1.2

24 Aug 2023

  • Fixed: Prepending a name/value with @ in an expression caused an InvalidOperationException to be thrown

  • Fixed: Using "Equals", "GetType", "ToString", "GetHashCode" and others as property names on a type caused an exception at runtime

  • Fixed: A validation appeared when using a null-conditional operator (?.) before a method call. This is valid and should not cause a validation to appear


2.1.1

13 Jun 2023

  • Fixed: '#.' was removed when clicking SAVE in the Expression Editor or ENTER in the property grid

  • Fixed: Typing @ instead of " caused an exception

  • Fixed: Reserved names, e.g., Equals, as property names in types no longer cause compilation errors


2.1.0

10 Feb 2023

  • Create necessary framework for async operations

  • Fixed the issue where JSON failed to convert int to string

  • Add the List functions mentioned in the docs to the Expression Editor

  • Function now exits immediately after a return when debugging

  • When debugging, show Function parameters and Result in the Debug Values when function completes

  • Allow using C# classes, like Math, in expressions

  • When debugging a service, log to the debug output when another call/invocation is rejected

  • Add a Return function to the Linx plugin

  • Services now support Functions

  • Add more List functions to the 'Variables and functions' in the Expression Editor

  • Fixed: GenerateRandom Byte List result did not act like a List

  • Fixed: Service required a restart after deployment before working

  • Fixed: $.Result.HttpContext.StatusCode cannot convert Int64 to Int32

  • Fixed the bug where could not be assigned to an implicitly-typed variable
