============================================================================== Binary Package Rename --------------------- As of version 0.14, the binary package names for libbarry (both RPM and DEB) have been renamed to libbarry0, to match the commonly accepted procedure of most distributions. This change may cause package conflicts if you are not careful during the upgrade. Please be sure to remove old Barry packages before installing version 0.14. May 2008 ============================================================================== API Change ---------- As of version 0.13, the Barry API has changed to use a hierarchy of Mode classes instead of using the Controller class to switch modes or select them. These new Mode classes are in a new namespace called Mode. In theory, these modes can be operational at the same time, such as Desktop, Serial, and IpModem. Eventually, a JavaLoader mode may also be available. Please see the example code in the examples directory for sample code and usage. IP Modem support ---------------- Version 0.13 has preliminary IP Modem support. You will need a newer Blackberry device to make use of this. December 2006 ============================================================================== Note: as of version 0.4, Barry depends on the stable version of libusb, not the devel tarball available on the Barry sourceforge site. Install stable libusb (0.1.12 or similar) and libusb-devel from your distribution's regular package set. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ See http://sourceforge.net/projects/barry for the latest news. |
