    Features
====================================================================

 * All 30 control objects of OPOS Release 1.11 are supported.
    Also includes an object that declares all of the OPOS constants.
    To use these constants...
     - Visual Basic: Select the menu item Project / References, and
        check "OPOS 1.11 Constants".
     - Visual C++: Add the line
            #import "path\Opos_Constants.dll" no_namespace
        to a source file, replacing path with the installed location
        of the file (or putting this location in the Include section
        under the Directories tab of the Tools / Options menu).
 * ATL-based, using dual interfaces so that the app can access them
    via IDispatch or COM interfaces (of the form IOPOSCashDrawer,
    etc).
 * Built using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0, Service Pack 6.
 * Backward compatible with all releases of service objects. This
    means that they check for older SOs, and return the proper
    errors to the app if it accesses unsupported properties or
    methods.
 * Event firing logic supports well-behaved service objects that
    fire events from the thread that created the control, plus other
    service objects that fire them from other threads.
 * Self-contained, requiring only standard OS DLLs. Specifically,
    they do not require MFC or ATL DLLs.
 * Both MBCS and Unicode versions have been built and given limited
    testing.  At this time, only the MBCS versions are being posted.
 * Source code for all control objects is available.
 * For future additions, it is easy to add new control objects or
    update old ones. A custom generator was developed that reads a
    data file for each control to be built. To add properties or
    methods, the procedure is update the data files, regenerate, and
    build the resulting projects.

    Update History
====================================================================

1.11.001 - December 4, 2007

 * Correct handling of CO methods that are not supported by the SO's
    version. Previously returned OPOS_SUCCESS status, instead of
    OPOS_E_NOSERVICE.

1.11.000 - January 30, 2007

 * Add OPOS Release 1.11 API support.

1.10.001 - September 22, 2006

 * Update Biometrics to match upcoming 1.11 specification.

1.10.000 - March 15, 2006

 * Add OPOS Release 1.10 API support.
 * Add initialization of [out] BSTR* parameters before calling the service
    object. This was added for safety: A COM object is supposed to assume that
    the value at the incoming pointer is invalid, and just write over any
    value. This addition ensures that the string pointer is NULL just in case
    the service incorrectly treats a non-NULL string pointer as valid.

1.9.001 - December 14, 2005

 * Add Debug tracing of event delivery.

1.9.000 - April 29, 2005

 * Add OPOS Release 1.9 API support.

1.8.001 - October 26, 2004

 * Correct memory leak when getting string property.
 * Update several header files with constants that were missed in previous
    releases.
 * Add new device statistics header file, OposStat.h.
 * Minor enhancement to Debug tracing of strings.

1.8.000 - March 22, 2004

 * Add OPOS Release 1.8 API support.
 * Add significantly more tracing when Debug.

1.7.002 - December 2, 2003

 * Rebuild after applying updates to some ATL files per Microsoft
    Knowledge Base Articles: ATLBASE.H (190686, 305746), ATLCOM.H
    (266713), ATLCONV.H (266713).
 * Changed the legal license language.

1.7.001 - May 29, 2003

 * On Debug builds, add tracing of Open and Close to
    C:\OposCCO_@DeviceName@.log
 * Update OposPtr.h with constants added in OPOS Release 1.7.

1.7.000 - August 17, 2002

 * Add OPOS Release 1.7 API support.

1.6.001 - March 7, 2002

 * Mark CCOs as safe for initialization and scripting.
 * Correct FiscalPrinter method name from PrintRecItemVoidFuel to
    PrintRecItemFuelVoid.

1.6.000 - July 19, 2001

 * Add OPOS Release 1.6 API support.

1.5.103 - July 9, 2001

 * Updated EventClose() to only discard user messages.
    Was causing some CE apps to hang due to bogus WinCE messages.

1.5.102 - June 23, 2001

 * Enhance (correct) to properly support multiple SOs per device
    type.
 * Includes PINPad built with updated OposPpad.hi (which corrected
    Track4Data property index).

1.5.101 - January 2, 2001

 * OPOS Release 1.5 API support.
 * Added OPOS Constants DLL (Opos_Constants.dll).
