SUMMARY

This article provides a brief summary of the changes made to the File Format Application Programming Interface (FFAPI) between versions 2.1c and 3.0.

MORE INFORMATION

  1. Full drive path support in -d parameter, if path longer than one character.
  2. -k support in courput and courget.
  3. Allow native transport of FROM addresses in the SNADS (System Network Architecture Distributed Services) mapping.
  4. Added truncation of subject line.
  5. Support for SNADS names with spaces.
  6. Enable PAT deletion in Remote FFAPI. Delete .PAT files associated with attachments once the attachments have been processed correctly.
  7. Disabled address checking in remote client. Do not validate addresses when FFAPI courput is running on a remote postoffice where there is insufficient information to validate addresses.
  8. Change *GET.EXE so the TIME and DATE fields reflect the time and date at which the message was submitted to the message system rather than the time and date at which the message was extracted by courget.
  9. Auto version and file delete on error. Correct the output file delete characteristics so the output file is deleted if both of the following cases are met:

    • courget created the file.
    • No messages were written to the file.
