My hoster has had some problems with the simulatesas.com domain that I use for SasLibEx enquiries. If you have sent mail to mail that has not been answered I kindly request you to send it again.

I would also like to briefly tell you about an upcoming new release of SasLib, version 2.0. There is so much I would like to tell you about it but I will limit it to a few highlights here and save the rest for the upcoming website on SimulateSAS.com.

  • A new option to simulate Control-Alt-Delete with only user permissions (no need to be admin or even system).
  • New Switch console function to reconnect closed RDP sessions for remote control.
  • Supports Windows Vista, Server 2008, Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2.
  • Support for Delphi 2010, C++ Builder 2010 and will support MS Visual C++ 2010 once it reaches RTM.
  • Native x64 support.

I feel especially good about 2.0 because further improvements were made to the code, again some highlights:

  • Full documentation of all functions, parameters and known possible errors.
  • 80% of the code was rewritten from scratch.
  • Uses techniques like annotations to further reduce the chance of programing errors.
  • Structured testing.
