RC 494: New Flash Player problem fixed
Posted: Sat Aug 13, 2011 3:05 pm
Guys, many of you already know YoWindow does not work with new Flash Player - 10.3.183.5
Only today I have realised the scale of the problem.
Any YoWindow copy will stop to work as soon as Flash Player is upgraded to a new one.
This RC fixes the problem on YoWindow side.
And it will be in the release as soon as possible.
Please test it and let me know if you see any other problems.
In case you are wondering why YoWindow has stopped to work, read on.
A long time ago I have made a mistake in the program (I have used "continue" word instead of "return" in a function body, not in a cycle).
This is an incorrect programming language operation.
But it was working.
Until the new Flash player.
Adobe has changed the behavior of Flash Player in this incorrect case.
And YoWindow has stopped to work.
So the person to blame is me
I have written a letter to Adobe explaining the problem.
I hope they will rollback their changes in Flash Player.
But it seems to me that the chances are low.
