What's New in 12.0.0 beta 2
** IMPORTANT - Please uninstall Rave 12.0.0 (beta 1) before installing Rave 12.0.0 (beta 2) **
There have been some significant changes in the directory structure for Rave to simplify 32 and 64 bit
distributions. If you do not uninstall 12.0.0 (beta 1) before installing 12.0.0 (beta 2) there will
be several extra files remaining in the installation folder. If this happens, it can be fixed by
unstalling Rave and deleting the C:\Program Files (x86)\Nevrona\Rave12 folder if you want to clean
things up.
Additions and Changes
- Added 64-bit versions of the end user DLLs and all associated BPLs (located in the Redist-64 folder)
- All Rave runtime component packages are now available in the Redist-32 and Redist-64 folders
- The visual and scripting demo projects have been merged and updated to use local client dataset
sources instead of the long depricated BDE demo tables.
- Significant testing and bug fixing of the scripting engine should fix all reported bugs from beta 1.
Please recompile your projects that contain any scripted events, save the project and let us know if
you still encounter any problems.
- Changed all remaining instances of extended floating point types to double for better compatibility
across 32 and 64 bit applications.
- Fixed quite a few other minor bugs.
Known Bugs
- The script editor leaves some remaining text behind graphically when switching from one event to another.
This is a display only bug and will not effect the scripting code.
- End user visual report designer DLLs are not displaying themes.
- Several elements of the visual designer are not displaying correctly with theme support enabled. There
are also significant visual/functional updates incoming for the overall designer and default preview.
- PDF export does not support unicode content. There has been many changes to the PDF rendering engine
which should be released soon to fix these bugs.
