BUMP BUMP NEW RELEAS OUT 2030
ADDET BELOW
Build 2.0.30b
Released: TBA
This release provides some powerful scripting enhancements to allow more complex applets to be developed. It also introduces support for Variable Sized applets that can resize themselves to make use of the extra space on widescreen devices.
Variable Sized Applets
Applet devs, please see site for-variable-sized-applets
Unicode Support
This will be the first release to provide support for unicode languages such as Russian. There may be a few issues with particular languages, so let us know if you encounter any problems.
Themes: Horizontal Signal and Battery Indicators
Home will now detect if the images used for the battery and signal indicators on the soft keys are wider than they are high - and if so will place them horizontally. This allows for theme creators to design themes looking like the "screenshots", I mean Photoshop mockups of WM7 - with the battery and signal bars at the bottom of the soft keys.
Scripting: Support for Pointers
As applet devs start building more complex applets, the need to make use of better organized code has resulted in custom classes being created. However, until now the scripting engine has been limited in how it can work with these classes. So, the support for pointers has been added to allow references to other objects. This allows custom objects to be passed around between methods and between objects. See http://docs.pointui.com/Pointer
Scripting: Gps Class (Pro only)
We have provided access to the GPS with a new Gps class. At present you can get basic information such as Longitude, Latitude, Speed, Heading, and Altitude, as well as handle a changed event to be notified when new location details are available. In the future we will extend this functionality, but there is enough there now for applet developers to begin integrating some GPS functionality.
Scripting: DateTime Class Improvements
For details on the new features please see:
Scripting: 'null' Support
Support has been added for the 'null' keyword, but will not be fully usable until future enhancements are made to add default assignment operators.
