Release notes:


WB 2022B Mar 16, 2022   

DLL 6.22bvb First appearing in WB 2022B

WinBatch 64-bit only:
   
   Modified the 64-bit WIL interpreter to support binary buffers much larger than the
   preivous 2GB 64-bit WIL limit.

    Vary large binary buffer usage restrictions:
      - Maximum buffer size varies because the size depends on the virtual memory avaliable
        to the process using the buffer.
      - Since the Windows COM APIs do not support safearrays larger than 2GB, BinarAllocArray
        cannot produce binary buffers greater than 2GBs.
      - BinaryRead does not support files larger than 2GBs, even when the supplied buffer is
        larger.
      - BinaryReadEx can be used to read files larger than 2GBs. However, the function can only
        read 2GBs at a time. Larger files can be read into a buffer by adjusting the buffer and
        file offsets between multiple calls to the function.
      - BinaryWrite does not support creating files larger than 2GBs even when the supplied
        buffer is larger.
      - BinaryWriteEx can be used to write buffers larger than 2GBs. However, the function can
        only write up to 2GBs at a time. Larger buffers can be written to a file by adjusting
        the buffer and file offsets between multiple calls to the function.
      - BinaryReplace uses a temporary buffer that may be the size of the passed in binary
        buffer. This means the WinBatch process needs twice the buffer size in available virtual
        memory to use the function.
      - BinaryCheckSum cannot be used on buffers greater than 4GBs.
     
WinBatch Studio:
   Modified WBS 64-bit debugger to handle binary buffers greater than 2 GB and limited the
   binary buffer variable editing window to prevent editing of buffers greater than about 1MB
   in size.
   
   Added support for horizontal scrolling using a mouse with a tilting center mouse wheel. The
   feature is only present when WinBatch Studio executes on Windows Vista/2008 or newer versions
   of Window.

WIL dialogs and WinBatch Dialog Editor:
   Added support for the @csCenter and @csRight styles to the EditBox and MultilineBox controls. 
           
   Modified the DialogControlSet function to support the @dcItemText(31) reqest-code. This
   request-code can be used to modify the text in any existing column of the ReportView control.
   The function's set-info parameter must contain a space-delimited list of the row number, column
   number, and replacement text.

I have a current license and will be "downloading" this version.

Questions:

If I choose to install this version after my license expires, will it still work?

If so, will my extenders be able to be updated (vcheck) in the future if my license expires?

Since your license was current when the version was released, you will always be able to install this version using that license. You will also be able to install any extender versions released before or while your license is still current. If any extenders are updated or initially released after your license expires, you will not be able to install those updated or new extenders until you get a current license.
