We announce the immediate availability of Servoy 3.1 RC 1

NOTE: this is PRE-RELEASE SOFTWARE, use with caution and make BACKUPS before you start.

This version is available through auto update and the download page on the Servoy website (developer section).

Changes:
[enh] - database views under separate node in data providers dialog
[enh] - search tab in code editor
[fix] - debugger "step into" is working again
[fix] - batch processor did not receive onClose event when server was shutdown
[fix] - aggregates were not correctly looked up in reports when used in text as tags
[fix] - save error (IndexOutOfBoundsExc)
[fix] - record loop error (ConcurrentModificationExc)
[fix] - web client session cleanup created NullPointerExc in log
[fix] - undid inadverted application.showURL(...) behavior change - it now works the way it did in 3.0 again
[fix] - upgrading old repository on MSSQL
[chg] - small omit behavior change

The behavior change of omit was designed so as to guarantee the least amount of surprise. Omit now is discarded when you do:

loadAllRecords (CTRL-J)
loadByPkSet (loadRecords with an array/dataset of pks)
loadByQuery (loadRecords with an sql string)
invert

Also, when you do a new find when you have omitted records then their primary keys
are now used in the search to exclude them from the search - meaning they stay omitted now.

What happened to the scope area of method find? I.e., find in this method, global methods, everywhere, etc.

I miss that!

A search tab was added which can do all that and more better. For instance, there's a checkbox to enable/disable searching in included modules.
With ctrl-f, you now can now only search locally.

Thank you!

A nice new feature. More better, indeed!

Hi,

I'm sure I'm being abit slow here, but I really can't find this new search feature... I can search within the current method ( ctr + f ), and I can search for a method ( ctrl-shift-T ), but how do I search within all methods at once? I can't see any tabs/ options for doing this.

Thanks,

Nick

Hi Nick,

look in your method editor. in the debugger window, next to the output tab, you find a tab search!

Hope this helps

Thats great, thanks!

I had minimised the debugger part of the page, so didn't so it there.

I agree, its a much better search!


Nick

yeah I agree, love the thing!
I have added a feature request, so we can use the thing also for searching in calculations!
