Highlights and Dependencies
This release tightens handling of parameters for PUT operations to align behaviour with the Alpaca specification. The specification requires PUT parameters to be case sensitive and to be sent as form parameters in the body of the request. Previously parameters were accepted in any casing and also if supplied in the query string.
- This release requires ASCOM Platform 6.6 SP1 or later https://github.com/ASCOMInitiative/ASCOMPlatform/releases
- The Remote Clients are no longer included in the installer - Please use the more functional Platform Dynamic Clients instead.
Documentation
- No changes.
