Update to 2.1.5:

eBay has been pretty active lately; this most recent breakage was
just of non-US non-PayPal listings. I took the opportunity to
address a few minor issues, while I'm looking into some longer-term
problems. Best of luck with your auctions!

Fixes

    * The non-US non-PayPal item issue
    * 'Post to: ' in location fields
    * Failure to read feedback scores

Improvements

    * Some attempts to improve data consistency
    * Completed auction loading and 'lost' auction recovery don't
    block each other
    * Better messaging around the browse-to site and My JBidwatcher
    configurations
    * Show the revision number on Windows and Linux

Update to 2.1.4.1:

eBay made some surprising changes over the last week or so, removing the end date from a lot of their auction and fixed price listings. I had to scramble a little, but I came up with a way to handle it in the general case. Fixed price items now may show up as ‘n/a’ as their end date, because it’s just not visible to JBidwatcher. Other than that there’s a few minor fixes, improving the UI in little ways, and continuing to try and improve speed. Thanks for your support, and best of luck with your auctions!

Changes

    * Fix breakage due to eBay removing the end-date from the title
    on many listings
    * Try to provide a safety-net for a potential sniping failure bug
    * Get eBay pages as compressed data for faster updating
    * Paste and Add Auction should add to the currently displayed tab/category
    * Allow Basic Authentication lines longer than 80 characters
    for My JBidwatcher support
    * Improve the look of JBidwatcher’s minimized window under Mac OS X

Update to 2.1.3:

Fixed issues

    * All ‘null (FP)’ problems should be resolved
    * Post-end bid-counts should be correct again
    * eBay is testing a new ‘confirm’ page which broke sniping.
    * Update-All works again, and is reasonably efficient
    * Substantial performance tuning

Update to 2.1.2:
o Fix some drag-and-drop issues caused by eBay’s new URL format
o Improve My eBay lookup
o Fix the display problems which made it look like completed items were gone.
o Try to make post-end auction updating work more smoothly
o A bunch of internal bugfixes

Update to 2.1.1:

    Bugs fixed
        Recognize auctions with BIN as auctions so they can be sniped.
        Force the time to synchronize 5 minutes before a snipe fires.
        Lots of tweaks to time synchronization to make it more accurate.
        Make snipe, cancel snipe, and other internal web server functions work
        Remove unused ‘Check for Updates’ menu item under Mac OS X; it uses Sparkle instead.
        JBidwatcher was failing to recognize a user as a high bidder if there was a bid retraction.
        Toolbar hide and show again shouldn’t move the login status to the far left of the toolbar.
        Recognize eBay’s error message for sellers trying to bid on their own items.
        Detect reserve listings again, and some other minor reserve-related tweaks.
        A ton of other cleanups and refactorings.
    Features
        Add selection color setting to the Window menu
        Some work towards providing a sync-with-mobile capability (disabled for now)
        Substantial renovations to the auction update cycle; auctions to update don’t need to be in memory anymore.
        Add selling-item retrieval to the My eBay search; successfully retrieved multiple pages.
        An attempt at getting My eBay watch lists working.
        Add the ability to refresh the log view
        Add a donation button that is easily dismissible.
        Include last-updated information in the Info display.

Update to 2.1pre8:

JBidwatcher 2.1pre8

* Bugs fixed
     * Searches (including Get My eBay Items) work again
     * Fixed a failure to start the internal web server if you shut it down and tried to restart it
     * Auctions with Buy It Now and Fixed Price listings are once again distinct
     * For many users JBidwatcher was failing to save configuration settings during shutdown
     * Make displayed bid values more consistent, and try to reduce the number of `null' prices that are displayed.
     * When deleting rows, sometimes they would be replaced with `*' and would cause all kinds of problems until you shut down and restarted JBidwatcher. This should
       be resolved.

JBidwatcher 2.1pre7

* Bugs fixed
     * Sniping works again for users who have time sync disabled, or are bidding on items that aren't on eBay US. That was a bad one. :(
     * Don't show auction listings as fixed price listings when they have a `Quantity' field in the item details.
     * Sellers and high bidder names are now parsed correctly after eBay's recent changes.
     * If you customize your selection color as per the FAQ, it wasn't being used anymore. It works again.
     * Private listings are recognized again.
     * Don't take up as much disk space with the database log
     * On the Mac, JBidwatcher would start up with a fresh database, without any of the previous listings in it. Unfortunately, if 2.1pre6 was the first version you've
       run, 2.1pre7 will appear to cause that problem. :(
     * For Mac users using the disk image (.dmg) version, future updates should upgrade cleaner as the app name no longer includes the version number. Also using the
       https site for Sparkle updates.
* Small features and improvements
     * More consistent synchronization with My JBidwatcher, including thumbnails, and entirely ignoring it if the user hasn't set it up.
     * Added the number of watchers, and promptly removed it as eBay made the data unavailable anonymously
     * Click the user info area to shrink it if you're having display issues (flickering, half-visible, etc.)

Update to 2.1pre6:

This update has been a long time in coming, and was spurred by some
recent eBay changes that broke drag'n'drop and searches. Other eBay
changes broke high-bidder recognition, and determining
whether a listing was an auction or a fixed price listing. This
should fix all of those, as well as several UI issues, especially
for Mac OS X Tiger users.

A great feature in the new version is thumbnail mode, which is
essentially a view of your listing that includes the thumbnail on
the same line as your auction information. It's been cleaned up
and made to look very nice. You can configure your columns to add
the Thumbnail column using the small '*' above the scroll bar on
the right, or under the Tab customization menu.

An overview of the features fixed for the new version are:

    * Bugs fixed
	  o Fix the blank-screen (but auctions are there, and only
	  visible when selected) on Mac OS X Tiger
	  o The newest forms of bad HTML found on eBay listings
	  shouldn't break the parser anymore
          o Don't mistake auctions for fixed price listings
          o Recognize eBay's new URL format.
          o Fix drag-and-drop on Linux (patch by Eric)
	  o Don't initiate sniping until the eBay time has been
	  loaded from the server
	  o If the pre-snipe had already fired (2 minutes before
	  the actual snipe), and you changed the snipe amount, it
	  would instantly place a bid for the amount you entered
	  as a snipe. This is fixed.
    * Small features and improvements
	  o Don't present a dialog message when cancelling a
	  multisnipe; events like that should just quietly obey.
	  o Reduce the number of unimportant exceptions that show
	  in the log file
          o Provide the ability to easily submit error logs
          o Improve the integration with My JBidwatcher
          o Improve high bidder recognition substantially
	  o Simplify tab save/restore handling, and apply a tab
	  ordering fix (patch from Andreas Stempfhuber).
	  o Added a patch from mickle_ak which should improve
	  corporate proxy support.
    * Features
          o Initial support for Gixen integration via My JBidwatcher
		+ This isn't complete, but it's getting close
	  o Deep improvements to the Thumbnail view and taking the
	  Mac UI improvements and applying them everywhere, including
	  (I believe) a working implementation on Windows and Linux!

Update to 2.1pre5:

There's a lot of changes bundled into this version. The highlights since 2.1pre4 are:
  * Lots of eBay fixes
       * Multiple high bidder and fixed price problems have been resolved
       * My eBay searches should work a little better
       * Seller feedback and names should be loaded
  * Many, many small UI fixes
       * Improved layout and UI, especially on Mac OS X and under the Thumbnail mode
       * The long-standing issue with shrinking the toolbar and overlapping the status/select box has been fixed.
       * Show Information and Set Shipping dialogs don't break with large images or many status updates
       * Nasty Java 1.6 bug that prevents multi-select and context-menu usage has been worked around.
  * Several Mac OS X-specific fixes and features
  * Reduced the My JBidwatcher usage, improving synchronization
  * Transitioned to git as the version control software.

Initial import of JBidwatcher-2.1pre4:

A Java-based application allowing you to monitor auctions you're
not part of, submit bids, snipe (bid at the last moment), and
otherwise track your auction-site experience. It includes adult-auction
management, MANY currencies (pound, dollar (US, Canada, Australian,
and New Taiwanese) and euro, presently), drag-and-drop of auction
URLs, an original, unique and powerful 'multisniping' feature, a
relatively nice UI, and is known to work cleanly under Linux,
Windows, Solaris, and MacOSX from the same binary.
