Notice: This page contains information for the legacy Phidget21 Library.

Phidget21 is out of support. Bugfixes may be considered on a case by case basis.

Phidget21 does not support VINT Phidgets, or new USB Phidgets released after 2020. We maintain a selection of legacy devices for sale that are supported in Phidget21.

We recommend that new projects be developed against the Phidget22 Library.

Revision as of 19:14, 10 August 2012


2.1.8.20120716

  • Linux-Only Release
    • Fixed a bug where opening a device in two program at once would cause an attach-detach cycle as they fight each other for control.

2.1.8.20120713

  • Mac-Only Release
    • Added signing of the Mac installer, so Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) doesn't refuse to run it.

2.1.8.20120615

  • Windows-only release
    • Fixed a bug that caused java to crash on events introduced in 2.1.8.20120612

2.1.8.20120612

  • Windows-only release
    • Fixed another bug that will cause Unity3D to hang on exit after having used Phidgets.

2.1.8.20120606

  • Windows-only release
    • Fixed a bug that will cause Unity3D to hang on exit after having used Phidgets.

2.1.8.20120525

  • Windows-only release
    • Fixed PhidgetIR sendRawData bug in .NET on 64-bit machines.

2.1.8.20120514

  • Linux-only release
    • Fixed a bug that causes a segfault with libusb-1.0 under 64-bit Linux.

2.1.8.20120507

  • Mac/Linux-only release
    • Fixes a setLabel bug introduced in 2.1.8.20120503

2.1.8.20120503

  • Fixed some spelling mistakes
  • Moved to libusb-1.0
    • This resolves a bug where having a webcam plugged in caused a memory leak in the webservice.
  • Fixed bug with advanced servo where setting acceleration to accelerationMax would cause an exception for some servo types

2.1.8.20120216

  • Fixed bug with RFID Reader on OS X and Linux, as well as .NET over the webservice
  • Fixed bug that could cause the Java Phidget Manager to crash during garbage collection.

2.1.8.20120131

  • Fixed RFID Reader bug that caused tag event to not get thrown in .NET Applications
  • Changed compass bearing calculations in spatial C# example

2.1.8.20120123

  • Added support for 1061 v300+
  • Fixed a bug where the firmware version could be mis-reported over Bonjour

2.1.8.20111220

  • Fixed a bug in AppleScript where closing a Phidget opened via label would give a 'Connection Invalid' error.
  • Fixed a bug where the webservice may fail to start on Linux systems that don't support IPv6 (ie. SBC2).
  • Fixed issue where ratiometric state on newest interfacekit wouldn't be read back properly if it was false during attach.
  • Fixed webservice issue where ratiometric state would not be reported properly for newest interfacekits
  • Increased the number of overrun errors ignored during initial attach for InterfaceKit.
  • Fixed an issue with the iPhone library and header

2.1.8.20111219

  • fixed various other webservice stability/performance/memory leak bugs
  • Faster connection to SBC-connected Phidgets from Mac OS
  • Don't report packetlost or overrun errors that happen during early initialization - these are just noise.
