+Dabo 0.9.1 (2009-01-25) Revision 4976):
+===============================================================================
+Lots and lots of bug fixes as more people worked with the 0.9.0 changes. Here
are some of the changes:
+
++ Some improvements of the PostgreSQL support (see ticket #1189).
+
++ Fixed an issue where a table with a column with the same name as a bizobj
property (such as 'Name') would throw an error.
+
++ Added the ability to reload a live form when it is based on a .cdxml file.
This is analogous to reloading a web page, except that all the bizobj
information is preserved.
+
++ Removed the pre-wx2.7 code that handled skipping a spurious second Activate
event.
+
++ Asking for the values of the properties ToolBar and StatusBar resulted in
the side-effect of creating the ToolBar or StatusBar if they weren't already
created, which it really shouldn't do. Fixed to create ToolBar and StatusBar at
the appropriate time, if not already created by user code.
+
++ Setting ToolBar had the side-effect of creating a reference to the Form
property, which isn't necessary because Form is derived from Parent, and Parent
gets set when the toolbar is constructed. Removed the Form property from
dToolBar.py (so now it comes from dPemMixinBase like all other controls).
+
++ Consistently use new style of raise statement (this is actually not
necessary but will make transition to Python 3.0 easier).
+
++ Fixed reportwriter so if the image to draw is invalid or not found, we don't
get a reportlab traceback. Just display text in the report.
+
++ Moved the importing of settings above dLocalize, to make it possible to run
the dLocalize.py as a script.
+
++ Got a step closer to fixing the problem where NonUpdateFields isn't
automatically set anymore for foreign fields. This workaround fills in
'_foreign_field_' for the table name in DataStructure. The better fix will be
to get the actual foreign table name filled in, but this at least makes the
NonUpdateFields work again, I believe.
+
++ addJoin() was adding join conditions in backwards order:
+ addFrom("customers")
+ addJoin("invoices", "invoices.customer_id = customers.id")
+ addJoin("invoice_lines", "invoice_lines.invoice_id = invoices.id")
+ would result in:
+ from customers
+ inner join invoice_lines on invoice_lines.invoice_id = invoices.id
+ inner join invoices on invoices.customer_id = customers.id
+ which would result in an error in the sql.
+
++ Added the method 'setValues()' to allow setting several fields with new
values by passing them to the bizobj as a dictionary in the form of: fieldName:
newValue. No UI updating is done.
+
++ dSpinner was firing ValueChanged and InteractiveChange with each keypress in
the textbox (IOW, these events fired as often as Hit). For text controls,
ValueChanged should fire if the value was changed from _oldVal, when the focus
is lost.
+
++ This should fix some of the problems noticed by Ricardo Ar‡oz concerning the
placement of the calendar when editing the dDateTextBox control.
+
++ Added the 'cloneRecord()' method to dBizobj. This will make a copy of the
current record and append it as a new record in the dataset. The copy will
contain all of the columns of the current record except for PK columns.
+
++ Added the 'appendDataSet()' method to dCursorMixin. This assumes that the
dataset to be appended has the same table structure as the current dataset; if
not, an error is raised.
+
++ Added the 'isRemote()' method to dBizobj. This returns True if the
connection for the bizobj is a remote web connection.
+
++ Implemented remote proxy support in the getFieldNames() method.
+
++ Implemented the getFieldNames() method to support remote discovery of table
structures.
+
++ Improved the code for determining the remote URL.
+
++ Improved the reload() functionality to better handle changes on the server.
+
++ Added the resyncFiles() method to dApp(). This is needed for reloading parts
of the app while the app is running.
+
++ For performance reasons, we were storing an actual bizobj reference instead
of the DataSource string in the grid's DataSource property. This was
interfering with reloaded forms, since the bizobjs have to be changed. Now this
performance shortcut is only used if the bizobj is not remote.
+
++ Added KeepAliveInterval to dBackend, which by default is None so has the old
behavior. But set it to a number of seconds, if desired, to cause a small query
to the server to be made in order to keep the connection alive. This is useful
to me for a MySQL app I have. Currently, there's no way to set this other than
e.g.:
+ form.getBizobj()._CurrentCursor.BackendObject.KeepAliveInterval = 3600
+
++ Added lots of changes to better handle unicode within the editor and the
Class Designer. I've adopted the convention that all of the Dabo files will be
written and read using utf-8 encoding, making the handling of any non-ASCII
text much simpler.
+
++ Also fixed a bug when a field in the DataSource is named the same as a
method in the DataSource. Previously we looked for methods in the DataSource
first, and then tried to call get/setFieldVal(); this would cause Dabo to call
the method instead of getting the field value. Now we look for fields first,
and only look for methods if there is no such field in the dataset.
+
++ Initial work on implementing an ID-based system for menus and menu items.
They now have MenuID and ItemID properties, respectively. dMenuBar.getMenu()
now will find based on MenuID or Caption, and dMenu.getItem() will likewise
search on ItemID or Caption.
+
++ Fixed some bugs in the filter() method for dDataSet reported by Sibylle
Koczian. Also added support for 'not equals', using either '!=' or 'ne'.
+
++ FIxed menu problems in DaboDemo. Also added code to re-use the modules if
you re-selected the same sample.
+
++ Fixed an error that only happened on Gtk, where the font metric call was
referring to a released window, causing a segfault.
+
++ Improved the DE Wizard so that newly-created bizobjs are added to the app's
biz module namespace.
+
++ Fixed a bug that would incorrectly store a CxnName if happened to be the
same as an existing directory or file.
+
++ Adopted the standard that all Class Designer files will be written/read with
utf-8 encoding.
+
++ Fixed a problem in which a newline was added to code, which didn't affect
execution, but dirtied the buffer when nothing had actually changed.
+
++ Updated the QuickLayoutWizard to recognize web-based connections and notify
the user that they cannot use that wizard with remote connections.
+
+
+
Dabo 0.9.0 (2008-12-10) Revision 4816):
===============================================================================
+ Removed the conditional import on the decimal module, as we are now
requiring Python 2.4.
