I do notice that GW has released the Beta of the upcoming WE9. It seems
there may be a few changes to be aware of, at least when I follow some
of the discussions on the main list. No, I am not on the Beta, so I have
to go by what I have read and think I have understood.
For one thing, it seems to me that the Browse Mode is all gone and
burried. If I follow that logic, my next gues is that there will not be
a Browse Mode object for our apps to hook onto any longer. Or, at least
it will have to be quite modified, I would think. Am I right in this
presumption?
I only have been fooling around with Browse Mode scripting, for a couple
of private apps, so it won't affect me too hard. But it all makes
another question dawn in my mind.
Is There Any Other Major Changes In Regard Of App Development?
Something that will need special attention when we develop and continue
to maintain our existing apps. Since it likely will take a while yet,
before the locale version of WE9 will come around, I want to know if I
do better in temporarily abstain from updating my current app releases.
No need to sit and spend a hundred hours in figuring ways to do the job
better, only to realize that things got altogether changed in the new
version. Is it by chance, possible to download the new reference manual,
that I at least could check out the features I do use in my apps?
Maybe I am making an elephant out of a tree here, but I just wanted to
make sure. Even just knowing that things are not going to change too
drastically, would help me in deciding how to best handle my current apps.
Thanks for any feedback.
