AreaList Pro 8.5 released

e-Node announces AreaList Pro version 8.5.

Published by e-Node worldwide.

Download: http://www.e-node.net/alp

This release fixes several bugs and brings new features.

System requirements
AreaList Pro 8.5 requires 4D v2004 or higher (including 4D v11 SQL and 4D v12).

Fixed bugs

  • – Improved stability and fixed scrollbar issues when the area is placed into a composite type window.
  • Better callback execution when run from a component.
  • Improved redraw and updates when several windows are simultaneously open with AreaList Pro areas.

New features

  • -New command AL_GetLastEvent replaces the deprecated ALProEvt variable (existing projects using this variable will still work, but AL_GetLastEvent should be used instead in new projects or in case of issues with ALProEvt). In addition, AL_GetLastEvent offers a better control of event management compared to ALProEvt, as it allows tracking of the last event in each AreaList Pro area.
  • AL_Register can now be called several times with different license keys. Registration will succeed if one or more keys are valid.
  • The return of the Advanced Properties dialog, updated to include new v8.x features and v11 / v12 compatible.
  • AL_UpdateArrays and AL_UpdateFields can now use the recalculate options (-2 and 2) in event callback methods.

AreaList Pro 8.5 is a free upgrade from v8.3 and a paid upgrade from all v8.x previous versions. (Ed.: Ohh… we like this!!)
8.3 license keys will work with version 8.5.

Mobile4D Beta Hits the Road

4D S.A. (Paris) is pleased to announce the beta of Mobile4D v12. Mobile4D v12 allows your users to carry their data, synchronized from their 4D v12 databases, on their iPhones, iPads, and Android devices. Mobile4D v12 utilizes the built-in data storage of all Webkit powered browsers to store data so your users can access their data even when in offline mode. Once your users connect again they can synchronize their changes with their database server.

Mobile4D v12 will be released as part of the upcoming 4D Web 2.0 Pack v12. Beta 1 is a time limited version which will work with any 4D v12 database (requires 4D v12.1 Hotfix 2).

Please help us create a wonderful addition to your applications by giving us your feedback, positive and negative, on the Mobile4D beta forum. Please also log any bugs you find on 4D Bugbase.
