Tools plugin v2.8 recognizes printers

Classic Servoy
1

February 27, 2006 IT2Be released version 2.8 of the Tools plugin

This release has a new property and a new function to work with the (default) printer(s) on the client computer.

Main reason to add these functions was to be able to retrieve a list of all available (named) printers on the client computer and to set the default printer on a OS X computer.

It is not a replacement for the controller.setPreferredPrinter() method. That method sets the preferred printer per event. Instead it sets the default printer. Good news is that it also works on Mac OS X.

You can download it here Servoy Components – Plugins, Beans, Web Components, Angular Services & Servoy Developer Consulting or use the update checker when you have the latest version…

Have fun with it!

Really HANDY Marcel - EXCELLENT JOB!

I hope it is.

And, for those of you struggeling with switching printers on the mac while Servoy was already running… Use the tools plugin to switch your printer!

Great toolwork again, Marcel!

Only thing is that I recieve this message (after update by update checker) in the terminal at application server startup:

Any idea what this could be?

The application server runs on OS X 10.4.5 with Java 5.0

Yep, I know what that is. When did you download/update the installer?

BTW I would very much appreciate to receive this type of messages in my support mail. Faster and more reliable. On top of that I don’t want to ‘clutter’ the Servoy forum with support for the plugins…
