-
-Whats new in 4.1.x ?
-
-A list of new features with links into the documentation
-is found via the Launchers "Help" -> "Whats new in ST/X" menu item.
-
- first of all:
- finally a new licensing scheme;
- Please read the files
- TOP/README (the README tab)
- which contains the additional license information.
- Make sure you agree - or else please contact us.
-
- Settings
- you will find a preliminary version of the pluggable settingsApp
- in the Launchers System-Menu, if you turn ON the
- "Use the new SettingsDialog" flag in the "Launcher-Settings-Tools" dialog.
-
- NewSystemBrowser
- go to the "Launcher-Settings-Tools" dialog,
- and turn ON the "Use the new SystemBrowser" flag.
- (This takes a short time to load the browser,
- so you may want to save an image after that, to avoid the delay in the future.)
- Please have a look into the updated HTML Documentation.
-
- cg: it is a good idea to also turn ON the
- "new VersionDiff Browser" flag.
- However, I dont like the new ChangesBrowser anymore ;-)
-
- NewFileBrowser
- MultiPane, Hierarchical Tree, File Properties,
- mime-type controlled presentation and more...
- go to the "Launcher-Settings-Tools" dialog,
- and turn ON the "Use the new FileBrowser" flag.
-
-
- ChangesBrowser
- now has multi-select capability and a pull down menu.
- if auto-compare is ON, diffs are shown immediately in the lower pane.
-
- SUnit testing framework
- see the Launchers "Tools" menu, or double click on any
- class derived from TestCase in the NewSystemBrowser.
- Last TestResults are remembered and indicated in the browsers class-icons.
-
-Additional ported goodies:
-
- Minnestore, an object data base
- (status: runs almost testcases and I think it is almost usable; but who knows...)
-
- SOAP
- thanks to Steve Waring & Masashi Umezawa
-
- XML-VW
- thanks to Cincom; a portable XML parser
- And then there were two of them ;-)
- Some preliminary support to fileIn XML-source has also been added.
-
- XML-YAXO
- yet another XML parser.
-
- SIF
- the smalltalk interchange format
-
- RefactoryBrowser
- is available both in its original version
- (see the RefactoryBrowser class)
- and via the NewSystemBrowser (which uses the reafactorings,
- but is not based on the refactoryBrowser other than that)
-
- measurements
- a units package (kelvin to fahrenheit at its best)
-
- stMath
- a math package (see the test cases)
-
-
- quite a bunch of new widgets, widget improvements and bug fixes.
- Many bug fixes in the compiler(s) and the VM.
-
- For Windows Users:
- winstx.exe (i.e. stx without a console window) now works again;
- [although as a developer, I still prefer stx.exe ...)
-
- stx.exe/winstx.exe can now be started multiple times under
- W95/W98 (had a wrong linker flag in the nt.defs file, which
- prevented the previous version from doing that).
-
- stx for win can now be (re)compiled using the freeBorland tools
- (and the free stx version actually is ...).
- There is no longer a need to buy a compiler to add primitive
- code to st/x.
- Of course, if you stay on the smalltalk level, there is still no
- need for any compiler at all - the built-in jitter does not
- require a compiler.
