Version 7.03 released!
Dear all,We are very happy to announce a new release of the wrapper! This new version has the following improvements:
New logic for starting/stopping the VM (it should remove the double read registry problem).
BOINC clients only receive a task if the user has VirtualBox installed, instead of crashing the WU.
Due to this requirement, instead of trying to grab the VirtualBox installation path via Windows Registry, the wrapper checks if the default location: C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox, exists; else it will try to read the Windows Registry. This method should reduce Windows Registry problems. New GNU/Linux 64 bits wrapper client. Please, if you want to test it, stop your 32 bit BOINC client, and try the new one.
As usual, any comments, failures, suggestions will be welcome!Regards,The team!!
