Debug Scripting Console
To use the debug scripting display/evaluate view (as seen in classic Developer), in the Servoy Eclipse developer, while in "debug" perspective, click Window -> "show view" -> other -> ScriptDebugConsole.
Timezone Behavior Change
Important behavior change: by default, the property "servoy.use.client.timezone" is set to true.
Property description:
When true the client timezone will be used to convert to the server/database timezone. It is highly recommended to use true as default to always see the correct/same dates/times in all clients (regardless of their timezone).
Impact:
Dates entered into the database in the past by clients in different timezones, without running with this property enabled, will be incorrect due to timezone calulation differences.
Known issues
- installer quits with error on machines running Java 1.5.0-b64
- text toolbar missing
