Highlights

Servoy Developer

• Added @this annotation in JSDoc to type the 'this' keyword 
• Added @override to annotate methods as overriding a method on a super form
• Added functions marked as constructor using the @constructor JSDoc tag as types in CodeCompletion globally. Note that it is not needed to access the type through it's fully qualified path (so scopes.xxxxx.myType). Instead just type the name of the function and when Code Completing, the scopes.xxx part of the path will be automatically inserted
• Added @enum support to mark an object containing a set of values as an enumeration, which can then be used in relations again
• Added the * type to be able to make a distinction between the lowest common denominator in JavaScript, which is Object and non-JavaScript types (for example Servoy's built-in types)
• Improved the build mechanism to see forward references in .js files and thus not generate builder markers
• Improved support for using types in JSDoc cross scopes. When a scope contains a function MyType which is marked as constructor, it can now be references inside the scope within JSDoc as just MyType, without prefixing it with the fully qualified path and outside the scope with the fully path, without the build system raising warnings that MyType != scopes.xxxx.MyType
• Updated the Unit Test view to be able to:
  • rerun a failed test, or a subtree from a failed solution from the results view
  • double click (or right click-> go to file) on a test/form/scope to open the container script.
  • view history of test runs and rerun any of them.

Solution Development

• Added placeholder support on TextFields, TextAreas & PasswordFields support in all clients (See http://webdesignerwall.com/demo/html5-placeholder-text/ for an example what a PlaceHolder is)
• Added mnemonic support on Tabs of a TabPanel and Panes of an AccordionPane
• Added RightClick and DoubleClick event handling support to ClientDesign mode
• Added support to use values from a variable containing an object with values in relations. Example:
  With the code below, in a relation the value of one of the status codes can be used, by using STATUS_CODE.ACTIVE

  /*\*  \* @enum  */ var STATUS_CODES = {   ACTIVE: 1,   INACTIVE: 2 }

• Added UICONSTANTS.TABLEVIEW_WC_SCROLLABLE_KEEP_LOADED_ROWS
• Added JSCalculation.hasFlag to retrieve is a calculation is of type UUID (annotated in JSdoc with @type {UUID})
• Added controller.showRecords variants that specify the records using a QBSelect statement
