Databases coming to #VSCP
VSCP & Friends 1.12.4 Magnesium has been released.
This is the last version that will be released on the Windows platform. Future releases will only target Linux/Unix. Windows will still be usable as a client using available web interfaces and web applications.
Source and setup files can be downloaded from Sourceforge.
Release notes can be found on Github.
Ending Windows support for the #VSCP daemon?
VSCP & Friends has been available on the Windows platform since the beginning of time. But nowadays most of our users is on Linux/Unix, using PC’s or devices like Raspberry Pi. Well we been there also since the beginning of time but now it’s maybe time to concentrate and put all our efforts on these important platforms. With Linux support on Windows this may not be giving up Windows after all.
But,
maybe there are reasons why we should not do this. Reasons we did not think of ourselves. If you think there are, speak out now. It’s still time to rethink this. And we listen to our users. Always.

Demo server is here http://demo.vscp.org:8080/index.html Please note! This is a development server that runs head code and it may not be stable all the time. Many users and developers runs (sometime) strange and buggy code against this server. Please download the stable version of VSCP & Friends and set up your own system if you need a stable system.
Special thanks to Andreas Merkle for doing work on this system.

Running VSCP & Friends Linux version on Windows. Yes it sound strange but this is actually possible now in windows 10 build 14316 which have Ubuntu Linux incorporated into the system. No it’s not a virtual machine its the real thing. Life just got easier for developers of cross platform tools.
Well how to use this new stuff?
First you need to switch your Windows 10 system to the Fast Ring. You do this by going “System Settings > Advanced Windows Update options” and selecting your Insider Preview update setting to the far right. This sets your Windows 10 update to the the Fast Ring.
Now you must turn on Developer Mode via “Settings > Update & security > For developers“. Search for “Windows Features” and choose “Turn Windows features on or off” and enable Windows Subsystem for Linux (Beta).
Restart the machine.
Open up a console and type “bash“. Well you are done. After some work by the machine you can install the VSCP & Friends system as on any other Linux machine.
