It is written with the development version of Gambas 3.

< p > This release fixes a lot of bugs in the interpreter, the development environment, the GUI components...
Most noteworthy are:
< ul >
< li > The Debian and Ubuntu packaging should work correctly now.
< li > RDir() handles too long paths correctly.
< li > The CR / NL input conversion flags is cleared when initializing a serial port.
< li > Using < tt > gb.desktop< / tt > made the interpreter crash at exit in some cases.
< li > In < tt > gb.qt< / tt > , TreeView.Count and ColumnView.Count now return the number of items in the view like in < tt > gb.gtk< / tt > , not just the number of root items.
< li > ComboBox now raises the Click event when it gets its first element, because that element is automatically selected.
< / ul >
Beware that the two previous changes may introduce a little backward incompatibility in your projects!

Gambas finally runs on 64 bits system! Gambas bytecode can be run indifferently on a 32 bits or 64 bits architecture,
unless you use the Pointer datatype. In that case, you must recompile the project.
This design flaw will be fixed on Gambas 3.

Otherwise, the main changes are the follwoing:
< li > Support for making component packages in the IDE, except for Ubuntu and Debian.< / li >

This release is the last one before the first < b > release candidate< / b > of Gambas 2.
< p >
This is mainly a bug fixes release:
< ul >
< li > An old bug was fixed in the interpreter that made the debugger
display the value of global variables incorrectly.
< li > Class names used as functions now are cast operators, unless they have a < tt > _call< / tt >
special method defined.
< li > An old bug was fixed in the Settings class, that made the interpreter stops without
printing any error message.
< li > The < tt > gb.ldap< / tt > component was removed: apparently it does not work, and its develor
does not maintain it anymore.
< / ul >

< p >
The database component is now case sensitive, and so some applications may break.
The < tt > gb.qt< / tt > and < tt > gb.gtk< / tt > now share more code, especially the drawing
routines that were moved to a dedicated common component. The features that cannot
be common are put in the < tt > gb.qt.ext< / tt > and < tt > gb.gtk.ext< / tt > extension
components.
< p >
The other main changes are:
< ul >
< li > The IDE menus were lightly reorganized.
< li > The IDE project property component list was redesigned.
< li > The IDE debugging windows were redesigned.
< li > A new catalan translation, made by Jordi Sayol.
< li > The Draw class lost the Draw.Rotate() and Draw.RoundRect() methods, but
gained a new method for drawing rich text.
< li > InputBox returns as a static class of the < tt > gb.form< / tt > component.
< li > A new experimental component made by Fabien Bodard, =gb.chart=, for drawing charts.
< / ul >
< p >
There are anyway tons of bugfixes. See the < a href = "changelog2.html" > ChangeLog< / a > for the details.

I finally put the development source code on SubVersion. To get a snapshot of the current
development version, you must do:
< pre > $ svn checkout https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gambas/2.0/trunk/
< / pre >
I will make tags for next releases, and to get them you will have to do:
< pre > $ svn checkout https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gambas/2.0/tags/1.9.XX/
< / pre >
To get a write access to the subversion repository, you must have an account on SourceForge,
and then give me your user name, so that I add you to the list of developers.
< p > You must of course be a true developer, and know how to use SubVersion!

a desktop shortcut of your application automatically.

Three important bugs were fixed in the interpreter, one in the archiver,

work everywhere now.

The Stock class design has been completed. Consequently, the development
environment now takes a < a href = "2006-08-06.png" target = "_blank" > GNOME look< / a >
if it runs under GNOME, and a KDE look if it runs under KDE!
< p >
The project creation dialog has been redesigned, in the aim of being
less cluttered.
< p >
A crashing bug has been fixed in the interpreter too.

I put the debugger in the < tt > gb.debug< / tt > component. This way the interpreter
is a little smaller, and I can add features to the debugger without making it
heavyier.
< p >
Otherwise, there are some little changes in the Development Environment, and
the Stock class design has been finalized.

I continue my work on the Development Environment in this release.
But you get two important bug fixes in the interpreter too!
< p >
< ul >
< li > The Development Environment Find dialog was redesigned.
< li > The automatic completion is less aggressive.
< li > A form can be reloaded.
< li > Reading and writing a string into a stream without specifying the length now work correctly.
< li > Temporary files are now correctly removed when the interpreter terminates.
< li > The GTK component got a GridView control.

Otherwise, it seems that SourceForge mailing-lists are dead. I hope
they will recover soon...

Just a little message to tell that The SMTP server of my stupid Internet
Provider has been black-listed at spamcop.net since yesterday.

So I cannot use any sourceforge mailing-list anymore, and
cannot answer the mails for an undefined period of time...

The development environment got a new look, based on KDE Crystal icon set.
I even made < a href = "screenshots.html" > screenshots< / a > !.
I hope you will like it. :-)

Less cosmetics changes are:
< ul >
< li > The support of < i > actions< / i > , that allows you to link buttons, menus and some
controls acting together.
< li > A new instruction, SLEEP, to wait without calling the event loop.
< li > Two interpreter crashing bugs were fixed.
< li > Many little changes in the < tt > gb.qt< / tt > component.
< / ul >
< p >
Oops. I forgot... < b > The bytecode has changed! You must recompile all your projects!< / b >

< ul >
< li > The error management does not leak stack anymore.
< li > The < tt > =< / tt > and < tt > < > < / tt > operators now always behave
correctly when comparing a string with < tt > NULL< / tt > .
< li > And they are many fixes in the IDE.
< / ul >
Last, but not least, the symbolic links in < tt > /usr/bin< / tt > are not
necessary anymore! Now the Gambas installation path is encoded directly in
the executable at compilation time. The only requirement is that < tt > gbr2< / tt >
must be in the < tt > PATH< / tt > .
