Raudus 0.8.1 Released
Raudus 0.8.1 is released.
In this version:
- 1) Basic support of SenchaTouch control set (14 new controls). Now you can create web-applications for mobile devices (iPhone, iPad, Andriod) in Delphi Win32 with Raudus. Mobile controls can be taken from “Raudus St” component palette tab. Names of the controls begin with “TRaSt”. Better watch new video, and then look at sources of examples 50, 51, 57 and 72
- 2) “Database-to-Mobile” controls. TRaStDbViewPanel is a list, which takes data from TDataSource component. See example 72 (SenchaTouch Employee) using mobile device or Google Chrome
- 3) New component TRaApplicationEvents with the only event OnBoot. The OnBoot event is fired when page is loaded (“booted”) by Refresh button or when new application page is opened. OnBoot is also fired when mobile device changes orientation (is rotated). Properties RaApplication.Application.ScreenWidth, RaApplication.Application.ScreenHeight, RaApplication.Application.RemoteUserAgent (and others) are available in OnBoot and you can resize controls, remove or add controls or even redirect to another form. So, you can create one application for several mobile devices. Example 72 (SenchaTouch Employee) works both on iPad and iPhone (try to resize Google Chrome, imitating iPad and iPhone screen resolutions)
- 4) Please do not combine TRaExt and TRaSt controls
- 5) Controls, whose names do not begin with “TRaExt” and do not begin with “TRaSt”, can be used both with TRaExt and TRaSt controls. For example, you can use TRaWwwPublusher and TRaApplicationEvents with TRaSt controls
- 6) RaControls unit is renamed to RaControlsExt. RaControlsData renamed to RaControlsExtData (it is a new unit naming style). RaControlsSt unit is introduced. It contains SenchaTouch controls
- 7) ExtJS upgraded to 4.0.2a
- 8 ) TRaExtTopToolbar and TRaExtBottomToolbar are deprecated and will be removed in next version. Please use TRaExtToolbar and it’s DockPosition property
- 9) Via DockPosition property, ExtToolbars can now be docked to left, top, right, bottom, and can also be without any docking
- 10) You can place more than one ExtToolbar on a container (for example two toolbars at top)
- 11) You can place more than one ExtToolbarFill on a Toolbar. For example, to make buttons centered, place a Fill before them and a Fill after them. The same for TRaStToolbarFill (SenchaTouch toolbar fill)
- 12) RaExtColumn.AutoExpand renamed to Flex (see example 31)
- 13) Please, rewrite properties TRaExtListViewPanel.ItemSelector, OverClass and SelectedClass in your applications to default values (those that are set when control is placed on a form)
- 14) The type of FontSize property is now String (was Integer). Now you can define FontSize := ‘120%’
- 15) New properties RaApplication.Application.RemoteIPAddress and RaApplication.Application.RemoteUserAgent to find out client’s ip address and browser version
- 16) Now you can use TDataModule. If you create a DataModule in IDE, each session will create it’s own instance of the DataModule (like RaForm). See code of example 72 (SenchaTouch Employee)
- 17) Redmond theme support is temporarily suspended. Dont use Redmond theme in 0.8.1
- 18) Now you can TRaControl.SetFocus. Even in TRaForm.OnCreate. See example 29
- 19) Improved performance under high load on a multicore/multiprocessor machine
- 20) Improved stability of version for Linux
- 21) Fixed Windows 7 issue
Thank you for your feedback! Stay tuned!
