RModBus 1.2.0 has been released.

Hello everyone!

I'm glad to represent next minor release of rmodbus. Big news it's compatibility with ruby-2.0.0 (thanks @zatapathique).  I have some errors in TCPServer tests but it works good outside of  RSpec environment. Although  you should use it carefully with last version of Ruby. Also I changed mechanism of transactions processing and now you should not meet this situation.

Well.. don't forget:

gem install rmodbus


Thanks, Aleksey

PS. Maybe somebody will interest in fixing that bug. 

Bugfix release 1.1.5.

Hello, everyone!

Today I have found and fixed the new bug in RTUClient. It's strange but the SerialPort enable a flow control by default and sometimes you might have the CRC error for valid packages. Please update yours gems. RModBus is better and better every day!

Bugfix release 1.1.4.

Hello, everyone!

I'm so sorry but the last bugfix release 1.1.3 has provided some regression for RTU viaTCP protocol (see issue #23). Thanks @pwood without him I wouldn't have  known about it so quick. Now bug has been fixed and checked for RTU and RTU via TCP protocols. Also I have deleted a stupid delays in the reading requests and I have improved speed this part of library several times. Please update your gems and use the new version of RModBus.

Mailing list.

I see that users ask questions me in comments of posts. I don't mind but I think that mailing list is best place for it because they will may get a help from others when I don't have opportunity  to help them personally.  And so,  I have started mailing list 
and now you can ack your questions to there.

rmodbus-1.1.1 and what is next?

Today I have released bugfix release for rmodbus. I hope my project is helpful and I see by rubygems statistics that people is using it! Also I have not been getting new bug reports or feature requests for long time. I think it's a good sign for me and library is clean and stable.  Well... Now I'm thinking: "Can I do anything else?." May be I  must remain project 'as is' and fix bugs when they will are appearing. May be I should not stop to develop the project.
I suppose if developing of project is needed then it should be implemented in rmodbus-2.0 version without a load of compatibility with 1.0 version. I had discussed opportunity 2.0 version with a some active users and contributors and  I will publish ideas for rmodbus-2.0 of their  and my here for discussion. If you have idea how do the project better when you can create issue with label rmodbus-2.0 in GitHub.

Thanks, flipback
