[Release updated 27 May 2021 to fix additional bug reported in #117. The only changes are to the Stop.bat file in the resources folder and the SendStopCommand.vbs file in the resources/scripts folder in the Windows zip.]
You are advised to upgrade to this release if:
-
you are a macOS user
-
OR you make use of the IBKR Mobile app for second factor authentication (any platform)
-
OR you use the STOP command (any platform)
Other users are encouraged to upgrade, but this is not necessary if your current installation is working without problems.
Bug fixes:
-
#114 missing double quotes in macOS file paths.
-
#117 STOP command caused problems if invoked too early during TWS/Gateway initialisation.
-
Some Linux distributions don't directly return exit status codes greater than 255, but only modulo 256, which caused the scripts to operate incorrectly in some circumstances.
Enhancements:
-
Enables the Second Factor Authentication prompt on the IBKR Mobile app to be ignored for longer periods than before, while repeatedly offering the user another opportunity at intervals of a few minutes.
-
Adds two new config.ini settings to better control diagnostic logging. See the revised section at the end of config.ini for details of these.
-
The organisation, readability and accuracy of config.ini has been improved. Note that this has resulted in some settings now being in a different position in the file, so care is needed if using this new format to carry over existing settings correctly.
