Introduction
--------------------------------

Lasso Professional 8.6 is a paid upgrade to Lasso Professional 8.5. The purpose of this upgrade is to officially support more modern versions of the OS X and CentOS operating systems.

Updated Features and Fixes
--------------------------------

- Lasso 8.6 is recompiled to support the following operating systems and architectures:

   Mac OS X 10.5/10.6 i386/ppc
   CentOS 5.5 i386/x86_64
   Windows 32-bit

- Updated site admin links to support at lassosoft

- Fixed issue where [Math_Abs] was incorrectly rounding numbers. (#7344)

- Fixed issue where private member variables can not be accessed from within inlines. (#7343)

- Added JSON tags from the TotW. (#7337)

- Fixed issue where the Apache 2.2 connector was consuming 100% of the CPU. (#7333)

- Fixed issue where Lasso would return a 500 error page with content of a certain length. (#7332)

- Fixed PDF issues and incorporated Bil Cory's fixes

- Fixed issue where Lasso would spawn extra "zombie" process when a site crashed. (#7328)
   - Also led to identifying and delivering improved connection speed.

- Fixed CentOS 5.5 64 Bit

- Changed log growth behaviour. When LassoErrors.txt reaches 10MB in size, it will be trimmed down to 5MB with newer entries retained. (#7319)

- Fixed file_probeEOL now works properly when given either string or bytes objects

- Fixed Lasso Unicode where 4 Byte characters are not inserted in SQL statements (7107)

- Fixed typo in LJAX header that repored X-JLAX. (#7105)

- Fixed issue where Lasso would crash when trying to unserialize invalid XML. (#7086)

- Email_send delays. Closed, caused by dependence on speed of quoted-printable encoding that was since moved to native code.

- Fixed issue where unsigned 32-bit integers were being treated as signed when being serialized. (#6984)

- Fixed issue with resetting the serveradmin password (6920)

- Fixed issue with default error.lasso deprecated tag

- Fixed issue where [Currency] was outputting incorrectly. (#6699)

- Fixed issue where [Date] did not return current date when passed an empty string. (#6562)

- Closed Map-> RemoveAll Fail. Maps don't support this. They rely on each key being unique, so if a match is found, map believes it's the only match.

- Fixed threading issue in LJAPI.

- Fixed issue where the -tableEncoding parameter was ignored in the MySQL connector. (#7331)

- The Lasso installer no longer configures the Default site on IIS. It now creates a virtual directory. (See Release Notes.txt)
