A new build of Clarion .Net has been released.
Wow. There’s a lot to the patch notes. Nice work!
There are some issues with the new build, dictionary problems in the main it seems. This is the first build where the dictionary functionality is quite full featured. From the Readme,
enable the dictionary editor so that you can now add, change and delete all items in a dictionary
It’s a good step forward in terms of bulk work. I like the amount of stuff in this build.
Robert Paresi has raised some valid points on the newsgroups in the last few days. There was a particularly good (not crazy arguing, just solid good) discussion going on as to the benefits of Appearance and the benefits of Functionality, and where those two mesh (or don’t) together.
The new site is around the corner. I know I keep saying this. But it is. I’m just not sure which corner. But it’s more along than last time.

1Now for the 64 Million Dollar question…. When will we see a release of the APP GEN? I use my own set of templates to provide a consistent and stable product for my apllications and customers. When will I be able to begin seeing how templates will be used in Clarion.NET so I can begin the long path to writing new templates and re-writing my classes.

2“Soon”.
It’s not the answer anyone wants, and it’s not a new answer. But it’s the answer I’ve got.
As I’ve said on the newsgroups, it’s going to be interesting to see how the upgrade path works.
For news on classes, there is Steve’s frequent postings on how he is doing with his rewrite of classes (again, on the newsgroups).
Edit:
Kevin, I see you are getting your classes moved across. Nice work. Look forward to hearing about your experiences.
