What's New

Jan 2/2008

A few bugs reported; a few bugs fixed. 4.0.3 may help you, especially if you like rich text output to your finds. (I’ve become a fan of DataWindow output and how it links to the Browse page, but to each his own.)

Fixes

Fixed retrieval of dot-notated DataWindow attributes in Lists / View / Show... / Attributes
Find was crashing with rich text output
Find was errantly reporting nothing found when reporting objects only
Fix when dealing with proxies
Fix autosize width of reporting DataWindows collapsing width to zero
Handles resolve of DataWindow objects better
SQL formatting improvement (double parens preceding subselects in WHERE clauses)
Synchronize DataWindow Data Sets processor

Better captures and reports error cases
Handles SQL with no FROM clause
Handle SQL with a GROUP BY clause
Changes to handle arguments in SELECT clause pending

It never fails. After every major release, a major problem turns up. Doesn't matter how much I test. This time, it's the installer. In the 4.0.0 release, only the icons you select to install to your desktop are installed to the Start menu. By default, that leaves out the option without the current app loaded. Oops.

Still, we haven't been standing still. I think the feature I use most in 4.0.0 is the Find RMB options in the Browse tab, and I've added to those. The DB Column Usage report got torn apart, so it's got a major performance boost, plus some SQL parsing enhancements that will affect several areas of functionality. (As with 4.0.0, I'm leaving the bug fixes list to the ReadMe in the installation.)

Later that day... Speaking of Murphy’s Law, not only did the 4.0.1 build I posted neglect to show the proper version, but it was missing an object that caused the Browse page to crash when RMBing the code (my favourite new feature, only tested under the IDE). Grab the 4.0.2 version if you got stuck with this turkey.
