Nickenich, Germany (March 14th, 2017) -- Monkeybread Software releases version 17.1 of the MBS plug-in for Xojo and Real Studio.
The MBS plug-in comprises a collection of several plug-in parts which extend the Xojo (Real Studio) development environment with 2,400 classes featuring over 62,000 documented functions. Our plugins support all three platforms Mac OS X, Windows and Linux with all project types desktop, web and console including 64-bit and ARM targets. Some of the highlights on the 17.1 update: The new NSOutlineControlMBS and the improved NSTableControlMBS controls allow you to implement modern table controls based on Apple's Cocoa controls. Included with the plugins are example projects to show how to replace the standard listbox with our replacements. For CURL we now have three variants: CURLS classes come with an internal CURL, SSL and SSH library, so you can use it without installation extra libraries. For Mac and Windows the CURLN classes allow you to use native SSL. And the CURL classes without N or S allow you to use your own library files. Our examples mostly demonstrate using CURLS to show you the same behavior cross platform. Our new ParseDateMBS function parses date and time. You specify the format of the date to parse. Same format can be used with FormatDateMBS function to format a date or time in as specific format. The functions to edit word files can now extend tables. If your template contains a table and you want to flexible add rows and fill them, you can now duplicate a row as needed and insert it below or on the end of the table. For Windows we implemented a new class WindowsProcessMBS as a native shell class replacement. You can launch processes and receive their output as string as well as send input to them. Optionally you can use cmd.exe to run shell commands. You can use the WinNotificationMBS class to draw into a MDI parent window of your application. Our example shows how to draw a picture there. This class is mostly used to be notified about global events like screen resolution changes. We updated the controls in the plugin and added new mouse events. The cocoa controls got FrameChanged and BoundsChanged events to recognize size changes. Finally we updated PortMidi, Tidy to version 5.3.15, DynaPDF to 4.0.9.24, SQLite to 3.17.0 and CURL to 7.53.1. See release notes for a complete list of changes: http://www.monkeybreadsoftware.com/xojo/newinversion171.shtml If you have questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. The plug-ins require Xojo or Real Studio 2006r4 or newer. Also required are 1 GB hard disc space and around 1 GB of RAM in addition to the requirements of Xojo (Real Studio) and your operation system itself. While all plug-in parts compile on Mac OS X, Linux and Windows, each function may depend on additional system requirements to work successfully.
