Version 01.03..2026 16:14

(This is the same version as the merged one in upcoming openhab 5.2.0)

Add-on changes

  • Reintroduce scriptUnloaded function. Was possible after another fix
  • Simplify binding config
  • Update helper lib to version 1.0.18

Helper lib 1.0.15 - 1.0.18 changed

  • fix wrong log prefix initialisation for file and ui based rules
  • Simplify error message handling and format. This results in much simpler function call stack which improves the performance in nearly all aspects of helper lib and java (foreign) object calls.

Base Version

  • Same version as the official binding in openhab 5.1.0
