Thanks for you response. I thought that the line had been taken out
for 4.0.x at some point, but it seems that's not the case. The reason
I'm asking is that I'm on a project where the customer uses the doc
pages, and they asked me if they should use 3.4. I just wasn't sure
what might be missing, but we'll just use 4.0.18 docs then. Thanks!

that was in the 3.4 doc. Some things just got lost in the transition
from HTML
to XML. (I'm guessing; that was before my time.) For example, entire
"See
Also" sections (lists of links to related docs) were omitted entirely.
Can't you use the 4.0.18 doc? That would seem to be the safest
thing. If not,
I agree with Tucker.

Well that warning will never go away in the 4.0 line, as that line
is no longer actively developed.
The major API changes came with 4.2 (which we all know in hindsight
should have been 5.0).
But, unless you are doing something pretty obscure, you should be
able to use either doc set. Our goal is to try to maintain
compatibility.

Good question. I still see the warning for the reference guide for
OL 4.0.18: Documentation in progress: please use the 3.4 Reference
Manual
It was initally added here: http://jira.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-4539
, for OL 4.0.6
John's comment: "The OpenLaszlo 4.x Reference Manual is alpha
quality. The information on this page is believed to be correct, but
some information may be missing. We recommend using the OpenLaszlo
3.4 Reference Manual, since the APIs are essential identical between
OL 3.4 and OL 4.x. The OpenLaszlo 4.0.5 Developer's Guide should be
used in preference to the OL 3.4 Developer's Guide, however."
http://jira.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-5436 And updated for 4.0.10
Didn't find anything else in JIRA on it.

Are there not docs for 4.0? IIRC the main reason the 4.0 docs
referred you to the 3.4 docs was because the new doc tools didn't
make pretty enough documentation. Not because the documentation was
wrong. But, maybe I mis-remember.

Which is the best documentation available for OL 4.0.18? Should we
use 3.4, or rather the OL 4.1 docs?
Thanks,
